Staying at the Steyn City Hotel by Saxon is an exercise in sensory indulgence. The vibe is one of understated opulence, where the heritage of the Saxon brand meets a fresh, modernist aesthetic. The rooms are vast, flooded with natural light and finished with a palette of soft earth tones and rich textures that reflect the Highveld landscape. There is a profound sense of quiet here; the rooms are designed as high-tech cocoons where the linens are crisp, the marble is cool and the views over the parkland estate stretch toward a distant, purple horizon at sunset. It feels less like a hotel and more like a private, elite residence.
Food & Drink
The culinary narrative at Steyn City is as sophisticated as the architecture. Nineteen, the resort’s flagship restaurant located within the clubhouse, offers a dining experience that bridges the gap between casual clubhouse comfort and fine-dining flair. The 19th-hole atmosphere is elevated by expansive terraces where golfers gather to dissect their rounds over chilled South African Chenin Blanc. The menus focus on seasonal, local produce—think perfectly seared steaks and fresh salads—served in a space that feels airy and light during the day, then transforms into an intimate, glowing hub as the sun dips below the fairways.
Leisure Facilities
Recovery and wellness are woven into the fabric of the estate. The resort features a resort-style swimming pool that seems to merge with the surrounding greenery, providing a tranquil spot for a post-round dip. Beyond the water, the estate offers miles of promenade for morning walks or cycles through the award-winning gardens. For those seeking deep relaxation, the spa facilities provide a sanctuary for physical and mental restoration, ensuring that even if your scorecard suffered on the course, your body leaves feeling entirely revitalised.
Who is it for?
A connoisseur of fine living who demands the gold standard in service and expects their surroundings to mirror their taste for high-end, contemporary design.
The strategic player who appreciates a perfectly manicured stage where every hazard is visible, every bunker is meaningful and every green transition is flawless.
A traveller seeking a secure, all-encompassing retreat where the spa is as vital as the scenery and the world outside feels entirely optional.
