The staff was extremely warm and welcoming, and very helpful. The fluffiest pilllows I’ve ever slept on and the property is absolutely gorgeous! Most importantly, we arrived several hours prior to check-in time and they had our “upgraded” rooms ready. Exceptional after a long flight!

One of the best I’ve been to. Ever. I love to travel but I have severe anxiety regarding hotels because I am ( probably overly so ) obsessed with cleanliness. This property is extremely well maintained , with gorgeous grounds and a staff who go above and BEYOND to deliver an exceptional experience. I was only here for two nights, but would come back to Johannesburg to stay here alone . Well done.

This hotel is one of the best I’ve ever visited. That is why this was my 3rd stay there. The staff is amazing, the accommodations are impeccable, the food is delicious. I literally could not ask for a better experience. They make everyone feel like a VIP. Will definitely stay here again.

My stay at the Saxon Hotel felt like a true "home away from home." From the moment I arrived, the warmth and friendliness of the staff made me feel very welcome. Their in-house expertise is commendable; they attended to every detail with genuine care. The dining experience was another highlight. Both restaurants are recommend. Go all out with the chefs menu. ;-) And I must mention the beds! The comfort of those beds, complete with amazing pillows, was heavenly. I found myself wishing I could take them home with me. Overall, to me the Saxon Hotel is an oasis of luxury and comfort in Jo’burg. Highly recommended! Ps. Please visit the Spa and book a hot stone massage.

I thoroughly enjoyed my 1 night stop at the Saxon. For reasons unknown they upgraded me to the palatial presidential suite which was very generous of them, but even regardless of that, I thought the hotel was great - especially the lovely terrace area overlooking the expansive pool that stretches towards the front of the property. Quality fresh fruit juices on offer, great service, and the driver they organised for me to do a city tour did an excellent job. Sandton also seems to be the nicest neighbourhood to stay in Joburg, so would highly recommend the Saxon.
