Ten Bompas Hotel

Hotel Overview

In a world where size is the standard measure of success, where me-too conformity leads the upwardly mobile masses, there is a haven of sanity and tranquillity for the true individual. Ten Bompas.

Location

Ten Bompas Hotel is situated in Bompas Road, Dunkeld West, just off Jan Smuts Ave, in close proximity to the British Consulate General. Ten Bompas is in the heart of South Africa's premier business area, minutes away from Sandton, Randburg, Hyde Park, Rosebank, and lllovo, and a short drive from Midrand, Pretoria and Johannesburg. Johannesburg International Airport is approximately 30 minutes by car from Ten Bompas.

Directions from Johannesburg International Airport: Follow the N3 to Pretoria, until you reach the M1. Here, turn off on the M1 south to Johannesburg. Exit the M1 South at the Corlett Drive offramp. At the traffic light, turn right into Corlett drive, and pass under the highway, carrying on straight along Corlett drive. You will eventually pass the Wanderers Cricket Stadium. Drive along Corlett drive until you arrive at a T –Junction with Oxford Road. Turn left here at the traffic lights, into Oxford Road and at your first intersection turn right into Bompas Road. You’ll pass through 2 sets of traffic lights: The 1st set is at Melville Road and the second crosses over Jan Smuts – a busy intersection. Once you have crossed over Jan Smuts drive a few hundred meters and you’ll see Ten Bompas Hotel on your left.

Rooms

Ten rooms, ten interior designers... Proprietor Christoff van Staden had very specific ideas for Ten Bompas, and his brief to the designers, one of whom was the project architect, included many remedies to shortcomings he had encountered on his extensive travels.

Each Suite was to have:

  • A Separate Lounge and Bedroom
  • A Fireplace
  • Guest Toilet
  • Steam Bath and plenty of natural light, with access to the outdoors via a ground floor patio or a balcony

Each Suite is equipped with:

  • Complimentary Bar
  • Satellite Television
  • Compact Disc sound system

This formed the basis of Christoff's brief to the designers. Every suite represents each designer's journey through their interpretation of the brief - essentially the way ten interior designers would like to be "Home from home in Africa".

Services

The decor of the hotel entrance, Reception rooms, Restaurant , Bar and Patios was designed as a subtle introduction to the philosophy embodied in the hotel: a luxurious, modern boutique hotel in Africa. Gentle curves and geometric forms create an air of tranquillity, which belies Ten Bompas' business focus. Ten Bompas is enriched with eye-catching focal points in the form of African objects d'Art, strategically positioned in niches or on pedestals.

Warm neutral wall colors, enhanced by the vibrant natural cotton hues of the custom designed couches and cherry wood furniture, provide a peaceful and harmonious environment for meetings or relaxing.

Outdoor patios, Garden and Pool allow guests to make the most of the beautiful South African climate, whilst in the heart of the business area.

Food & Beverages

Sides Restaurant A Restaurant In The Best Of Taste - The Ten Bompas Restaurant, Sides, features fresh, innovative cuisine. Seating about 45 people, the restaurant is open to outside diners as well as hotel guests. Ten Bompas boasts an excellent wine collection, stored in ideal conditions in our environment-controlled wine cellar. Order from your waitron, or browse the wine cellar for your fancy. The double volume state of the art wine cellar is home to some 4500 local and foreign vintages. The 2000 and 2001 bottled reds have been unpacked, dusted off and are now available in the cellar. Over the past few years, Ten Bompas has been a regular purchaser at the annual Cape Winemakers Guild Auction. The Auction wines have to pass a rigorous selection process overseen by a panel of fellow wine makers and are only available for purchase at the Auction. Ten Bompas has, we believe, the largest selection of Cape Winemakers Guild Auction wines in the country, all of which are now on display downstairs in the cellar.

The Chic Bar area is an ideal place to entertain business guests or relax before dinner.
