// Radisson Blu Sandton Hotel General Manager, Stefan Lourens

Stefan’s passion for hospitality and people is evident in his approach to his new role. He is determined to elevate the hotel’s offerings, ensuring that every guest who walks through its doors leaves with unforgettable memories. His plans for the hotel include a comprehensive refurbishment, aimed at infusing the property with a contemporary and stylish atmosphere that appeals to the discerning tastes of today’s travellers. This refurbishment will touch on every aspect of the hotel, from its rooms and suites to its event spaces and relaxation areas.

Situated close to major attractions such as the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, Nelson Mandela Square, and the Sandton City shopping center, the hotel offers easy access to the best that the city has to offer. Its event facilities are geared towards hosting everything from corporate functions to social gatherings, while its relaxation spaces provide guests with the opportunity to unwind and recharge.

Under Stefan’s leadership, the Radisson Blu Sandton Hotel is set to further solidify its reputation as a premier destination in Sandton. His commitment to creating a modern, fun, and vibrant environment hopes to align with the needs and desires of today’s travellers, who seek not just a place to stay, but a place to experience.

As the Radisson Blu Sandton Hotel embarks on this exciting new chapter, it also bids farewell to its former General Manager, Danie Smit. Danie has moved on to take up the role of General Manager at the Radisson Safari Hotel Hoedspruit, the first Safari hotel in Africa for Radisson. Located close to the renowned Kruger National Park and the stunning Blyde River Canyon, the Radisson Safari Hotel Hoedspruit offers 138 rooms and suites, providing guests with a luxurious base from which to explore the natural beauty of the area.

Danie’s new role marks another significant step in his career, as he brings his wealth of experience and leadership skills to a unique and ground-breaking property within the Radisson portfolio. The Radisson Safari Hotel Hoedspruit is expected to set a new standard for safari accommodations, blending the thrill of African wildlife with the comfort and luxury that Radisson is known for.

Back in Sandton, the Radisson Blu Sandton Hotel looks forward to welcoming guests to experience the exciting changes under Stefan’s leadership. As the hotel undergoes its transformation, guests can expect to be greeted with the same service and attention to detail that has made Radisson a trusted name in hospitality, now enhanced by Stefan Lourens’ dynamic vision and approach.
