Big News for Pretoria: "The Maslow Time Square" is Now "Time Square Hotel"!

South Africa, get ready for a fresh chapter! What you’ve known as The Maslow Time Square in Pretoria is now officially Time Square Hotel. This rebranding, effective immediately, is a strategic move to sharpen our brand identity and ensure clearer guest perceptions. We’re still proudly South Africa’s first hotel to boast three different gradings under one roof!

Why the Name Change?

This decision wasn't made lightly. The shift to Time Square Hotel aims to simplify our identity and align it more closely with our iconic location. It helps us focus on what truly makes us unique – a premier entertainment and accommodation destination.

What Stays the Same? Your Experience, Unchanged.

Worried about your bookings or the excellent service you love? Don't be!

Ownership & Management: Remains firmly with Sun International.
Exceptional Service: Our commitment to delivering top-tier hospitality is unwavering.
Bookings & Rates: All existing contracts, reservations, and negotiated rates are valid and unaffected.
Operational Excellence: The friendly faces and dedicated teams you know and trust are all still here.

As Ruben Gooranah, Time Square’s General Manager, assures us: "While our name is changing, guests can be assured our ownership, management, and commitment to delivering exceptional service remain the same."

Pretoria's Unique Gem: Multi-Tier Room Grading

What truly sets Time Square Hotel apart is its innovative multi-tier room grading – a pioneering concept in South Africa. We proudly offer three-star, four-star, and five-star graded rooms, all within a single building. This means you can find the perfect fit for your budget and preferences, a standard officially recognized by the Tourism Grading Council of South Africa (TGCSA).

"The innovative concept allows travellers to tailor their accommodation to suit their needs and budget," explains Lesego Kitsa, Time Square Rooms Division Manager.
