Southern Sun has completed an extensive series of refurbishments across key hotels in Sandton and Rosebank, reinforcing its long-standing commitment to service excellence, as well as South African hospitality and tourism. The upgrades span five high-profile hotels and represent a significant investment in Johannesburg\u2019s premier travel and business hubs.<\/p>\n

Andrew Hosking, Central Northern Region Operations Director for Southern Sun, said, \u201cOur recent refurbishments reflect Southern Sun\u2019s ongoing focus on quality, comfort and delivering an experience that aligns with what today\u2019s travellers expect,\u201d said Hosking. \u201cGuests want refined design, attentive service and a sense of connection to the city. That is exactly what we have delivered.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the heart of Sandton\u2019s commercial district, Sandton Towers now stands renewed with a full interior upgrade. The revamped Club Floor, redesigned Atrium Restaurant, and restored rooftop pool bring renewed sophistication to this landmark hotel. Four striking Anton Smit sculptures surround a reimagined central fountain, adding a bold artistic presence to the lobby. The hotel\u2019s enhanced service now includes dedicated butler training for premium guests, positioning Sandton Towers as a luxury destination in its own league.<\/p>\n

Nearby, Southern Sun Sandton has redefined modern comfort with a full refurbishment of its 301 rooms and suites. The new look brings in clean lines, rich textures and locally sourced furnishings that create a space that feels both polished and welcoming. Soundproofing, blackout curtains and upgraded lighting add to the sense of calm, while executive rooms and suites offer generous layouts, lounge areas and high-end finishes. The transformation aligns the interiors with the hotel\u2019s contemporary identity, creating a stay that\u2019s as stylish as it is functional. Downstairs, the Eclipse Restaurant and panoramic Skye Bar continue to attract guests and locals alike for standout dining and city views.<\/p>\n

Hidden among Sandton\u2019s high-rises, Southern Sun Katherine Street offers a relaxed, residential feel that sets it apart. With spacious rooms, lush gardens and its cosy SunPet offering, it\u2019s made for travellers who like their stays a little more personal \u2013 ideal for long stays for business travellers and families alike. Select rooms have been adapted for pet-friendly stays, with in-room pet amenities and a curated pet menu. Kelsey\u2019s Restaurant, now under direct Southern Sun management, adds a relaxed, flavour-forward dining experience.<\/p>\n

In Rosebank, the iconic 54 on Bath continues its tradition of classic luxury. The recent refresh of its Level 4 Terrace and Bar along with croquet lawns and pool, brings renewed energy to the boutique hotel\u2019s classic setting. With garden croquet, high tea and premium gin pairings, it\u2019s a destination known for style without spectacle.<\/p>\n

Also in Rosebank, the 318-room Southern Sun Rosebank offers a refined full-service experience that blends style with substance. The hotel\u2019s recently refurbished rooms feature a modern, understated aesthetic with warm tones, sleek finishes and thoughtful touches that make every stay feel considered. Alongside the updated accommodation, guests can enjoy the tranquil Zen garden, Camelot Spa and versatile conference spaces. The dining offering has also been refreshed, with the newly revamped Fresh Restaurant now anchoring the hotel\u2019s culinary experience. Whether it\u2019s a mid-week business trip or a weekend wind-down, Southern Sun Rosebank delivers comfort, convenience and a strong sense of place.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cThese investments not only reflect our confidence in Johannesburg\u2019s future but also the critical role hospitality plays in local economic growth,\u201d said Hosking. \u201cBy continuously refining our offering, we support tourism, enhance the guest experience and invite both South Africans and international visitors to rediscover what Jozi has to offer.\u201d<\/p>\n
