We’ve created some the world’s most iconic hotels from The Palace of The Lost City at Sun City to The Table Bay Hotel in Cape Town. The creative architecture of these properties and the blending of their designs with their local environment make each property unique. We are committed to the development of all our employees and we make sure that equal opportunities and economic empowerment form the backbone of our human resource practices. 6 Sandown Valley Crescent, Sandton Gauteng, South Africa
