City Lodge Hotel Group has announced the official opening of its Courtyard Hotel Waterfall City in Midrand, Gauteng.
Headed up by opening GM, Brendan Luttig, this is the 63rd hotel in the Group, the 56th in South Africa and the sixth in the Courtyard Hotel brand, bringing to 8 070 the total number of rooms in the group.
The new hotel is designed to attract business travellers during the week and leisure guests over the weekend, as well as a combination of ‘bleisure’ guests.
The hotel is also open for day visitors keen to enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner at one of the restaurants, or a quiet space to work.
Key features:
· 164 rooms and four penthouse suites. Provision has been made for an additional 50 rooms, as a separate wing was planned into the original design.
· Restaurants include the Protea (serves breakfast, lunch and dinner from a sophisticated, contemporary menu), and Highline restaurant (specialises in gourmet light meals for lunch and dinner, and is also the perfect place to watch the sunset with drinks), plus the Club Lounge, an intimate space for relaxing, events or private dining.
· Three event areas can be combined into one large space. Skyrocket, Sugarbush and Mountain-Rose cater for 40 people each when partitioned off, and 120 people when opened up into one space. (These are pre-Covid-19 numbers, which are now reduced to 20 people in each space, and 60 people when combined.)
· The Pincushion Boardroom accommodates three people currently to be COVID-19 compliant, but is built to host six people.
· Co-working spaces
· Lobby lounge
· Fitness room
· Swimming pool
