Four Seasons at Westcliff Johannesburg


Currently closed for a complete transformation, the new Four Seasons Hotel Westcliff Johannesburg promises an iconic hotel reborn with a fresh approach to luxury. Expect a totally new experience, featuring a newly built spa and two new restaurants and a bar focused on local cuisine and fine South African wines. In this stylish urban resort, Four Seasons service delivers Johannesburg’s best hotel stay.  

Much acclaimed and soon more impressive than ever, Four Seasons Hotel Westcliff Johannesburg welcomes you to a self-contained sanctuary in an affluent residential area. Perched on a cliffside, this resort-style retreat offers panoramic views over the neighbouring Johannesburg Zoo and the dense tree canopy of the city’s prestigious northern suburbs. The ambience is like a sun-splashed Mediterranean village laced with courtyards, fountains and gardens.

Fully transformed, the hotel’s approximately 114 guest rooms and suites offer cool, contemporary décor inspired by modern Africa.

Four Seasons Hotel Westcliff Johannesburg is destined to become a lively social hub for the city’s elite, and the first choice for business and holiday travellers – providing a pampering start or finish for a South African safari.

Bustling, vibrant and cosmopolitan, Johannesburg is a charismatic holiday destination – and the perfect start or end point for an African safari.

Known by locals as “Jo’burg”, “Jozi” and “Egoli”, Johannesburg is one of the world’s 50 largest metropolitan areas – and stands unique as the world’s largest city not situated on a river, lake or coastline.

With wealth built on the gold and diamond trade, Johannesburg is lively, affluent and cosmopolitan. Explore the city’s array of international restaurants, designer boutiques and world-class shopping centres. In a comfortable year-round climate, you’ll always feel close to nature with abundant golf courses, botanical gardens and beautifully manicured parks.

Four Seasons Hotel Westcliff Johannesburg commands a cliffside position on the Witwatersrand, the rocky hills that run through the city. The “Rand” is rich in minerals, and is claimed to be the source of 40% of the gold ever mined on earth.

Four Seasons is set among the historic Westcliff homes of Johannesburg’s Rand Lords – the wealthy mining magnates who controlled the diamond and gold industries in South Africa from the 1870s up to World War I. The Westcliff area still retains the character of leisure and refinement from that bygone era.

Views from this elevated Johannesburg hotel reach across the city’s prestigious northern suburbs to the distant Magaliesberg hills. The landscape is lush and green – despite the fact that 100 years ago there were virtually no trees in the area. Today this northern region of Johannesburg is recognized as the world’s largest man-made forest, featuring 10 million trees, planted in private gardens, along suburban avenues and in the Johannesburg Zoo, adjoining Four Seasons Hotel Westcliff Johannesburg. Many of the guest room terraces overlook the zoo’s gardens, where animals may often be spotted beneath the trees.
