In the heart of Sandton, The Catalyst Hotel by Newmark Hotels & Reserves is perfectly designed and positioned for locals and travellers who want the best of both worlds — to feel connected to the energy of Johannesburg’s most vibrant district without sacrificing calm, comfort, or style. Whether it’s a weekend escape or an indulgent mid-week reset, this is where staycations take on new meaning from the moment you arrive. The Catalyst offers a personal reset that feels far removed from the city’s bustle, even though it’s just minutes away.

Wine & Dine at Kashew Restaurant

Food and drink are central to the experience here. The hotel’s Kashew Restaurant, a 190-seater trendsetting space surrounded by local art, serves up contemporary dining that flows seamlessly from morning to night. With an outdoor deck for long lunches and cocktails, it has become one of Sandton’s hotspots for fine dining and socialising. Every Thursday, the Table for Two experience offers a curated three-course dinner with a welcome cocktail for R900 per couple, while weekends bring The Sunday Affair, with a choice between refined High Tea or Mimosas and a charcuterie board, both available from 1 pm to 4 pm for R350 per person.

Staycations Galore

Staycation packages make it even easier to linger, from the Date Night Package at R2,300 per couple, which includes an overnight stay, welcome cocktail, and a romantic three-course dinner, to the Family Stay Package with two inter-leading rooms for up to four guests, starting at R3,240 per night.

The Catalyst’s location makes it effortless to combine play, leisure, and lifestyle. With Sandton’s shopping, galleries, nightlife, business, and entertainment scene on your doorstep, you can move easily between city energy and the sanctuary of the hotel that feels worlds away. It’s the kind of place where a workweek can melt into a weekend, and every stay becomes an experience to savour.

But perhaps the biggest luxury is the chance to pause. To check into a space that feels like a world of its own, even though it’s right here at home. The Catalyst transforms ordinary weekends into indulgent mini-breaks, turning quick getaways into long-lasting memories.

Whether you’re planning a romantic retreat, a wellness-focused reset, or simply a stylish city break, The Catalyst is Sandton’s answer to the perfect staycation.

On Auction: A Riverfront Country Estate Where Art, Architecture & Nature Live in Harmony

Tucked within the exclusive Korhaan River Estate, where fewer than 30 families share in the quiet luxury of open skies, river breeze and uninterrupted privacy, this remarkable property brings country living to life with elegance, intention, and a touch of soul.

Set along the gentle Leeuspruit River — just a short flow from the mighty Vaal — the estate unfolds across 70,500m² of manicured grounds, three shimmering dams, and sweeping lawns made for unhurried afternoons. It’s the kind of setting where mornings begin with birdsong and evenings settle beneath a canopy of stars — whether as a permanent sanctuary or a sophisticated weekend retreat from city rush.
