The Radisson Blu Gautrain Hotel transforms business travel into sheer pleasure
Submitted by: Nicky ArthurAs the Best Luxury Business Hotel at the World Luxury Hotel Awards in 2014, Radisson Blu Gautrain Hotel understands that executive travellers need to perform at their very best – which is why we offer uncompromising comfort, seamless convenience, upscale amenities and warm, personal service geared to satisfy every need of today’s sophisticated and discerning guests.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?
As a top-end hotel catering to sophisticated business travellers, it is a given that we offer high-speed internet connections, spacious and luxurious rooms, high-end business and conference facilities, and sophisticated, contemporary interiors that reflect our exciting cosmopolitan locale – but what really sets the Radisson Blu Gautrain Hotel apart are the finer details.
Central location
With business travellers jetting in and out for relatively short but busy stays, it is essential to make every second count. The Radisson Blu Gautrain is just 55 steps from the high-speed Gautrain that connects guests to OR Tambo International Airport in just 20 minutes, as well as to Pretoria and Soweto. The hotel is ideally situated in Sandton, in the city centre of Johannesburg, just 1,5 kilometres from the Sandton Convention Centre and on the doorstep of world-class shopping districts, boutique stores, top restaurants, the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and the corporate heart of Africa’s most-visited city. Because convenience is key, we offer our guests a complimentary shuttle service within a four-kilometre radius of the hotel.
Excellent service
We pride ourselves on our ‘Yes, I can’ culture. This means that not only will our warm, welcoming staff make you feel right at home, they will go out of their way to anticipate your needs, accommodate your requirements and ensure your comfort receives top priority. To help you make the most of your stay, we offer a 24-hour concierge service that provides recommendations and booking services in Johannesburg and surrounds. Our concierge will fill you in on the latest shows and clubs in town, the city’s top restaurants and galleries, and must-visit attractions and museums. Schedule trips and organise transfers to anywhere in the city with the assistance of the hotel’s enthusiastic and attentive staff. Our refined one-touch app being launched in October allows you to have all our concierge services at your fingertips. Just one tap connects guests to the concierge and all our other hotel services – from housekeeping, room service, laundry and more – without even leaving the room.
Vibrant ambience
At the Radisson Blu Gautrain Hotel you will know you are staying in the centre of one of Africa’s most exciting modern cities: our location in the beating heart of the city is reflected by the fabulous vibe that is apparent from the minute you walk into our expansive, contemporary lobby. The rooftop pool deck is the location of many of our high-energy weekly offerings, from inner-city ‘beach’ parties to sundown cocktails to the beats of DJ Snee. Our 24-hour fitness centre is located on the 10th floor with incomparable views of the Joburg skyline – and if you need further motivation to spend time there, book the services of a personal trainer who will keep you on the straight and narrow.
Superb food & wine
Enjoy our award-winning executive chef Stuart Cason’s ‘modern comfort food’, which makes the most of lovingly selected fresh ingredients simply cooked with delectable, elegant results. Because seasonal ingredients are key, the menu at The Central One Bar & Restaurant – which incorporates everything from light snacks to gourmet dinners – changes weekly. The restaurant enjoys a loyal local clientele who are drawn by the top-notch list of local and international wines, and our food-and-wine pairing menu is first choice for celebrating special occasions.
