Our Blueprint
Cresta Hotels aims to provide memorable hospitality experiences through the four experiential gateways.
This caters for the cosmopolitan customer - or one seeking more of an authentic African experience.
The four gateways 'Urban Heartbeat', 'Urban Oasis', 'African Roots' and 'African Fingerprint' are each designed differently for you to choose the travel experience that will best suit your individual needs.
