Venue Overview
Set on a cliffside in a garden estate, The Westcliff has an almost rural air despite being in the city center. Its swimming pool and private terraces look out over the adjacent zoological gardens where animals can be spotted beneath the trees.
This sets the scene for a safari in Botswana, the next stage of many of its guests’ journeys. Stay at this charming retreat and, as with all Four Seasons, you will be perfectly positioned for all that Johannesburg has to offer, yet cosseted in peace and calm when you so choose.
