Ten Bompas
10 Bompas Road, Sandton 2146, Johannesburg
Close to the heart of Johannesburg and Sandton's business districts, this small, suite-only retreat envelops its guests in warmth and tranquility, whether with its pool and peaceful gardens or through unlocking the wealth of experiences Africa has to offer. A different designer created each of the ten bespoke suites following a brief by proprietor Christoff van Staden to provide natural light and incorporate the lush garden setting. Gill Butler's Edwardian suite combines sand-hued walls and robustly colored leather-embossed furnishings with modern tile and steel. Other suites blur cultures, with military-style canvas and splashes of color typical of the South African landscape. The ethno-African highlights in couturier Andre Croucamp's silk-enhanced suite, the contemporary cool Johannesburg suite by Cecil Lyons and the ethnic turned high-tech approach in the suite designed by the project architects, Zeghers & Associates reflect the color and excitement of the new South Africa. Originally a private dwelling, Ten Bompas has been reimagined as a home away from home in Africa, combining reassuring calm with adventure, sophisitication and a sense of discovery.
