Saxon Hotel, Villa and Spa

At the heart of the City of Gold, beneath the warm sunshine in the opulent, tree-lined suburb of Sandhurst, lies the enchanting Saxon Hotel. A uniquely perfect blend of rich cultural history and contemporary five-star service, the Saxon is situated on ten acres of magnificent indigenous gardens, providing a private and peaceful retreat. The entrance exudes an air of quiet majesty with its sweeping feature staircase and spectacular chandelier. Looking towards the Piano Lounge, Cigar Lounge and Qunu, the neutral shades of the interior reflect the tones and textures of Africa. The central point of the Saxon is the impressive infinity pool and pool terrace, the ideal relaxation area. The Saxon Spa is the ultimate retreat for peace and harmony.  For the leisure or business traveler, the Saxon Fitness Centre is available 24 hours a day to continue your health and fitness routine.
