Overview
Südafrikas ehemaliger Präsident, Nelson Mandela, verwendete die heitere Umgebung des Saxon in Sandhurst, um seine Autobiografie "Der lange Gang zur Freiheit" zu schreiben.
In der exklusiven Sandhurst-Vorstadt Sandton gelegen, gibt sich das Saxon mit einer Weltklassenhaften, afrikanischen Anmut, verbunden mit einer großen Aufmerksamkeit auf das Detail. Das Saxon ist immer ein Platz des Willkommens gewesen. Zuerst als ein Zuhause, jetzt als ein Zuhause fern weg des eigenen Zuhauses. Mit seinen Wurzeln im Herzen von Gauteng hat es die Wärme der Stadt geerbt, von der ganzen Welt hat es seine Modernität und Bequemlichkeit gewonnen.
Der Begrüßungs-Eingang mit der stattlichen Treppe, die sich um eine Glaskuppel windet, erlaubt es dem natürlichen Licht sich hier zu verschmelzen und beleuchtet das zeitgenössische afrikanische Dekor und handgefertigte ethnische Kunst. Hier befinden sich auch ein Boutique-Geschäft, eine Klavier-Halle, Bibliothek und das Esszimmer. In den sechs Hektar großen üppigen Landschafts-Gärten gelegen, ist das Saxon dafür entworfen worden, in seine natürliche Umgebung zu verschmelzen. Eines der Designthemen ist der umfassende Gebrauch von Wasser. Der Mittelpunkt des Wasserthemas ist das großartige neunhundertzwanzig Quadratmeter große Schwimmbad.
Das Saxon beherbergt sechsundzwanzig Suiten von verschiedenen Größen. Alle Suiten vereinigen ein starkes Element afrikanischer Kunst, vergitterte Verschlüsse bedecken die großen Erkerfenster, die auf die ruhigen Gärten oder das Swimmingpool Gebiet herabschauen. Jede Suite hat einen großen Fernseher, Videorecorder und DVD-Spieler mit Surrounding Sound System. Arbeitsplätze, ausgerüstet mit Telefon, Fax und ISDN Anschlüssen versorgen jeden Gast mit einer unvergleichlich guten Ausstattung in der geschäftsorientierten Gastfreundschaft.
Die vier Präsidentensuiten besitzen ein getrenntes Wohnzimmer und einen Speiseraum. Die sensationellen Mandela und Mbeki Platin-Suiten bestehen aus 500 Quadratmetern unverfälschten Luxus. Es gibt zwei Schlafzimmer, jedes mit einem eingebauten Badezimmer, einer Empfangs-Halle, Wohnzimmer, Esszimmer, Bar und der Küche des Butlers, mit einem privaten Aufzug - eine Ausstattung nur für den exklusiven Reisenden.
Trotz in der so genannten "Stadt von Gold" gelegen, bekannt wegen seines rasenden Lebensrhythmus und seiner Bergwerksmentalität, liegt das Saxon als ein landschaftliches Juwel umgeben durch üppige Landschafts-Gärten. Mit seinem umfassenden Gebrauch von Wasser, eignet es sich natürlich bestens als ein Ruhepunkt von dem täglichen Business-Stress und dem hektischen Tempo des Stadtlebens.
Das Ambiente des Esszimmers bietet eine gemütliche Atmosphäre, außerdem ein exklusives und einzigartiges Wein-Angebot präsentierend. Eine Reihe von Weltklasse-Köche versichern Ihnen persönliche Kochkunst, die unsere gut bereisten Gäste befriedigt. Die Cocktailbar führt zum großen Swimmingpoolbereich, dem Tauchbecken und geheiztem Außenpool. Das Gesundheitszentrum beinhaltet ein wohl durchdachtes und bestens ausgestattetes Fitnesszentrum, Clarins-Schönheitssalon und Dampfsauna. Wieder belebende Massagen können unter den schattenspendenden Gartenlauben neben dem Pool oder in der Gemütlichkeit Ihrer eigenen Suite genossen werden.
