Formerly Radisson Hotel & Convention Centre Johannesburg, O.R. Tambo Airport
Destiny Exclusive Hotel & Convention Centre is a 248-room hotel near Johannesburg’s O.R. Tambo International Airport. Opened in 2020 under the Radisson name, the hotel is now presented as part of the Destiny Exclusive Hotels portfolio.
⚠️ ***Booking note: This hotel is now called Destiny Exclusive Hotel & Convention Centre — O.R. Tambo, South Africa. Hotels.com or Expedia may still show its former Radisson Hotel And Convention Center Steve Tshwete Middelburgname. The address and property shown on the booking page should match this listing.
The property was conceptualized and developed by Akani Properties, a Black-owned South African property development, investment and management company led by Zamani Letjane. Its airport location, accommodations and convention facilities make it a useful choice for both overnight travelers and longer business or leisure stays.
Booking note: Some booking sites may still show this property under its former Radisson name. Check that the address is Estate 154, 3rd & 6th Avenue, Bredell, Kempton Park before completing your reservation.
With an international convention center, full-service spa, heated indoor pool, fitness facilities, multiple dining venues and complimentary airport transportation, Destiny offers considerably more than a typical airport hotel.
Rooms & Suites
The main hotel features 248 contemporary rooms and suites, designed for both international leisure travelers and business guests passing through Johannesburg.
Destiny also promotes an executive lounge and room service, while the larger hotel precinct has historically included additional boutique accommodations and apartment-style units.

Wellness is another major component of the property. The Destiny Spa includes a heated indoor pool and fitness facilities, making the hotel particularly attractive for travelers looking to rest and recharge before or after a long international flight.
Meetings & Events
This property was built to be much more than an airport stopover.
Its substantial convention facilities make Destiny particularly suitable for conferences, corporate events, meetings, weddings and large groups, positioning the property within Johannesburg’s important meetings and events market.
That continues today: the property is already being advertised as Destiny Exclusive Hotel & Convention Centre for major 2026 conferences.
Convenient for O.R. Tambo International Airport
For international travelers, one of Destiny’s biggest advantages is its proximity to O.R. Tambo International Airport.
The hotel currently provides a complimentary airport shuttle, with scheduled departures between the hotel and airport throughout the day. Advance booking is required.
That makes the property particularly convenient for overnight connections, early departures, business trips and travelers beginning or ending a longer South African itinerary.
