NH Johannesburg Sandton Completes Major Upgrade of Meetings & Events Facilities

NH Johannesburg Sandton, owned by The Cavaleros Group and managed by NH Hotels & Resorts, completed the first phase of a comprehensive renovation to enhance its meetings and events offering and reinforce its position as one of Sandton’s premier destinations for conferencing and business engagements.

The first phase of the renovation, which commenced in April 2026 - focused on a full-scale transformation of the hotel’s 800-seater Ballroom, along with its ten dedicated meeting rooms. This upgrade introduces a contemporary design, expanded flexibility, and state-of-the-art audio-visual and conferencing  event support, positioning the venue to meet the evolving requirements of corporate and MICE clients in one of Africa’s most competitive commercial districts.

Maintaining Seamless Operations Throughout The Improvements

The refurbishment was carried out through a carefully managed phased approach to ensure seamless continuity of hotel operations, with minimal disruption to guests and partners. All core facilities including guestrooms, wellness amenities, and dining outlets remained fully operational throughout the project.

NH Johannesburg Sandton also continued to deliver a comprehensive meeting and events offering during the refurbishment period. A selection of alternative venues within the property remained available, featuring flexible room configurations, integrated audiovisual capabilities, bespoke catering options, and access to 350 on‑site parking bays. The hotel successfully accommodated corporate functions, small conference groups, and social occasions ensuring a flawless experience without compromise.

During each stage of the refurbishment, the hotel management team maintained consistent communication with all stakeholders, ensuring they are informed of the progress.

Future‑Ready Event Spaces Unveiled

The newly reimagined Ballroom and meeting areas have now been unveiled following the successful completion of the refurbishment in June 2026. The transformation reflects the evolving requirements of today’s event organisers, combining contemporary aesthetics, increased functionality and integrated digital infrastructure to support a wide range of corporate and social gatherings in Sandton.

Further Hotel Modernisation in the Pipeline

In addition to the completed conference facilities refurbishment, NH Johannesburg Sandton will be upgrading several key areas of the property including its 329 rooms. These enhancements form part of the hotel's broader transformation strategy and ongoing focus on continuously refining the guest experience.

While retaining their spacious design, the refreshed rooms will introduce modern interiors, superior in-room technology, and elegant finishes, aligning the accommodation offering with the high standards of the NH Hotels & Resorts brand.

"This refurbishment reflects our dedication to ensuring NH Johannesburg Sandton remains a preferred MICE venue in the region,"

said Don Jesseman, General Manager of NH Johannesburg Sandton, adding, 

“It’s clear that demand for high-quality, versatile event spaces continues to grow and we are adapting our offering to meet the expectations of today’s organisers.” 

Future phases in the evolution of NH Johannesburg Sandton will be revealed as the year progresses.
