The Saxon

Forget the outside world as you step into this palatial property, resting on a hill in a tree-lined avenue in the tranquil suburb of Sandhurst. Holding the title 'World’s Leading Boutique Hotel' every year since 2001, the building was originally designed for Douw Steyn, one of South Africa’s leading captains of commerce. Delivering warm hospitality alongside contemporary Africanthemed interiors with hints of Eastern influences and African artefacts; it’s easy to see why Nelsen Mandela chose these serene surroundings to edit his autobiography. Celebrities, royalty and best-selling authors return time and again here to experience the world-renowned opulence.
Every suite is decorated with the finest African furnishings and artwork as well as the finest linen for your comfort. Large windows offer superb views of the gardens, swimming pool or city skyline complete with shutters for privacy. Premium suites have the benefit of a personal butler at all times.
The hotel houses an astonishing art collection, which will impress the most avid art collectors featuring works from Africa, the East and Europe.
World-class chefs prepare freshly made meals to delight every palate in the Saxon fine dining restaurant, where a pianist plays to enhance the mood as you dine.
Spoil yourself in the state-of-the-art Saxon Spa and Studio where you can indulge in an exciting range of heavenly treatments and take advantage of the café’s delicious calorie-counted meals and mouth-watering smoothies.
