Is the The Residence Hotel for Me?

Situated in the upscale neighbourhood of Houghton Estate, The Residence Boutique Hotel Johannesburg is a sophisticated establishment surrounded by charming jacaranda-lined avenues.

Indulgence defines your stay, from the sanctuary of the on-site spa offering botanical treatments to the outdoor swimming pool set in tranquil gardens. Dining is an event in itself, starting with a decadent champagne and oyster breakfast and culminating in exquisite dinners that feature a traditional South African hand-washing ceremony.

Just moments from historic landmarks like Nelson Mandela’s former home, this property seamlessly blends cultural richness with modern luxury.
