“One of Johannesburg's finest hotels The Saxon provides luxurious lodgings in the heart of town. Sample Asian flavours at Qunu, a generous breakfast each morning, or high tea in the afternoon. Lavish interiors create a refined ambience whilst spa treatments are the height of indulgence.”

The Saxon Hotel
A historic Johannesburg hotel, set in a 10-acre oasis of manicured gardens, attracting a well-heeled mix of guests and locals. Nelson Mandela lived here when it was a private home and wrote his autobiography, Long Walk to Freedom.
