Table of Contents
Perched high on the rocky ridge of the Witwatersrand, Four Seasons Hotel The Westcliff offers a rare blend of exclusivity, panoramic beauty, and city-centre convenience. While Johannesburg pulses with vibrant energy below, this hillside sanctuary feels worlds away, unfolding like a chic village with sunlit courtyards, fountains, and lush gardens.
Elevated Elegance with Panoramic Views
From your private balcony, endless treetops stretch toward the horizon, framed by Johannesburg’s glittering skyline. Mornings begin with birdsong drifting through open windows, and evenings end in golden light as the African sunset casts its glow over the city. Every space — from the rooms to the open terraces — is designed to immerse guests in the surrounding beauty while maintaining complete privacy.
Dining Above the City
The signature restaurant, Flames, combines seasonal inspiration with the richness of South African produce. Whether it’s a leisurely breakfast or a romantic dinner, each meal is elevated by sweeping city views.

The hotel’s lounges and bars offer refined settings for afternoon tea, intimate conversations, or a pre-dinner cocktail. Each space captures the essence of sophisticated relaxation.
Spa Serenity in the Sky
High above the urban bustle, the destination day spa delivers calm and renewal. Treatments draw on local botanicals and regional traditions, from open-air massages beneath the African sky to restorative rituals in the eucalyptus-scented steam room. With its elevated location and panoramic outlook, even a short visit to the spa feels like an escape.
Leisure and Relaxation
For those seeking activity, the fully equipped fitness centre and heated outdoor pool provide wellness with a view. Guests can unwind in private poolside cabanas, enjoy light refreshments, or simply take in the scenery.
