A PROPOSED five-star boutique hotel development will be on offer at Alliance Group’s multi property auction on June 25.

The property is in the upmarket area of Hurlingham, adjoining Sandhurst.

“It’s is on the very busy William Nicol Highway, a road that carries phenomenal traffic from the N1, N17 and the R512 and links Bryanston and other northern suburbs,” says Eli Unterslak of Alliance Group.

All the regulatory requirements have been met for either a boutique hotel or guesthouse, and approved plans are for 10 luxurious rooms in the one building and an additional five in the next building.

There is an in-house sauna, mini-gym and executive boardroom, which is well designed and equipped for business meetings. A conference facility caters for up to 20 people.

The bedrooms boast flat screen TVs which will have access to a range of DStv channels, and connect to surround sound systems.

There is enormous potential in the hotel industry. Both the government and the private sector are spending huge amounts of money preparing for the 2010 Soccer World Cup and beyond, Unterslak says.

“Joburg is preparing to host the droves of tourists that will visit the country to witness this spectacular event.”

The auction takes place at noon at Southern Sun Grayston.
