Set in the middle of South Africa’s largest city, Johannesburg, the Westcliff Hotel feels like a chic hillside village, with nine sun-splashed villas woven with courtyards, fountains and gardens.

Take a ride up our glass elevator to meet friends for seasonally inspired dishes at Flames, visit the destination day spa that captures the serenity of the region with its nature-inspired treatments, or simply step out onto your room’s balcony to enjoy a quiet moment as you admire the endless treetops that stretch out before you. You might even spot an elephant in the middle of the city. . .
