The Park Hyatt Johannesburg is set to open its doors on July 1, a month earlier than initially planned. This new hotel, which is a conversion of The Winston Hotel in Rosebank, Johannesburg, will be the smallest Park Hyatt in the world with only 31 rooms and suites.

Mitch Gemmell, the general manager of the hotel, explained that "every element — including the curated guest experiences, dining, rooms [and] suites — has been thoughtfully considered to create an intimate and sophisticated retreat in the heart of Rosebank."

Guests can expect luxurious amenities such as round soaking tubs and private terraces overlooking lush gardens. The property will also feature a wellness suite and year-round access to a heated courtyard pool.

Gemmell stated that their vision is "to offer an experience that is both globally sophisticated and deeply connected to Johannesburg's vibrant energy."
