Tivoli La Caleta by Tivoli Hotels & Resorts

This timeless hospitality brand has its roots in Portugal and has now entered the Spanish market through its five-star rated offering: the bright and eclectic Tivoli La Caleta Tenerife Resort.

Guests can choose from the 284 elegantly decorated rooms and 20 suites. If enjoying panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and admiring the beauty of perfectly manicured gardens makes your eyes light up, then this is the island haven designed just for you so you can live in the moment.

Wellness amenities including heated swimming pools, a spa, and an ice igloo are also available. Additionally, the hotel boasts a fully-equipped gym and a padel court. Guests are spoilt for choice with Seen Beach Club, Yakuza seafood, Guilty cosmopolitan restaurant, and Gusto – all by world-renowned Portuguese ‘chefpreneur’, Olivier da Costa.

NH Collection Hotels & Resorts

The very first NH Collection property in South Africa is slated to soon launch in Sandton this year. This marks a major change and is cause for bittersweet excitement as the world’s second leading hospitality group  with over 500 properties spread across 56 countries worldwide makes its debut with what is to be called NH Collection Sandton. Look forward to a property that exudes sophistication and leaves you ‘feel[ing] the extraordinary’ after July 2024. The properties typically include spacious bedrooms, gold accents, and understated glamour.

Vignette Collection

Undoubtedly for the aesthete and passionate creatives, International Hotel Group’s (IHG) Vignette Collection communicates poetically around the power and importance of storytelling and community, stating the unique elements of this particular hotel brand. True to its emphasis on uniqueness, the hotels are named thusly – from Yours Truly in the USA to Th8 Palm Beach Resort in the UAE and Hotel X Brisbane Fortitude Vly in Australia – which all carry a vibe of their own while maintaining the lush and considered tone of the Vignette Collection brand.

Coming soon to the African continent is the very first Vignette Collection property to be built in Zimbabwe, House of Chinhara, Victoria Falls.

Hilton Hotels & Resorts

With a whopping 72 properties currently under construction across Africa, Hilton Hotels & Resorts has a firm hold in a number of countries. The brand’s newest properties include Hilton Cairo Nile Maadi , Canopy by Hilton Seychelles and Hampton by Hilton Grayston Sandton. The latter is scheduled to launch in the heart of Sandton during the final quarter of 2024.

Perfect for energetic business professionals as well as families with luxurious taste, the hotel will include flood-lit tennis courts, a state-of-the-art fitness centre, onsite restaurants and an outdoor pool. The 161 rooms for guests will be complemented by a block of serviced apartments for those opting to stay for longer periods in the business hub.
