The Residence caters to Champagne tastes. Spacious, fully-kitted and individually designed suites come with private terraces, some with an outdoor bath - in addition to your indoor one - so you can laze while watching Joburg's immense skies and appreciate the birdsong in one of the city's older and most treed suburbs. You can also opt for a suite with a private swimming pool.

The furnishings are classically elegant, and rich in colour, detail and comfort. Privacy is guaranteed with the hotel's many discrete spaces and lush garden setting. The Residence has a tennis court, its own luxury spa, and a 'sky lounge' at which to sip sundowners or afternoon tea while admiring the treetops.

To complete the picture choose between a Rolls-Royce or a Mercedes-Benz Viano as your hotel shuttle.
