It's Official - Four Seasons is taking over the Westcliff

After much speculation, it has been confirmed that Four Seasons will take over management of The Westcliff hotel, marking the entrance of the international brand into the South African market.

Four Seasons has signed a long-term management agreement with the owners of The Westcliff, Albwardy Investment and Hotels Properties Limited.

The property will reopen as Four Seasons Hotel Westcliff Johannesburg at the end of 2014, following renovations. This marks the entrance of Four Seasons into the South African market and its second on the continent – Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti in Tanzania opened last year.
