Time Square Hotel: A New Name for a Landmark Destination
With immediate effect, The Maslow Time Square has been officially renamed Time Square Hotel, a strategic move that strengthens brand identity while ensuring clarity for guests. Importantly, while the name has changed, everything guests value remains firmly in place. Ownership, management, service standards, and all existing reservations, contracts and negotiated rates are unaffected.
“While our name is changing, guests can be assured our ownership, management, and commitment to delivering exceptional service remain the same,” says General Manager Ruben Gooranah.
A First for South Africa: Three Gradings, One Hotel
Time Square Hotel is the first hotel in South Africa to offer three-, four- and five-star graded rooms within one building, as recognised by the Tourism Grading Council of South Africa (TGCSA). This flexible, guest-centric model allows travellers to choose accommodation that aligns with their budget and purpose of stay, without sacrificing service quality.
- Foundation Rooms (3-star | 24m²): Designed for efficiency and comfort, with queen or twin beds, a work desk and a walk-in shower.
- Median Rooms (4-star | 27m²): Offering added space and refined finishes, with king or twin beds, coffee machine and modern bathroom.
- Zenith Level Rooms (5-star | 36m²): Spacious, luxurious rooms with premium finishes, separate bath and shower, and exclusive access to elevated dining and leisure spaces.
More Than a Hotel Stay
As part of the Sun International portfolio, Time Square Hotel forms part of Pretoria’s largest gaming, entertainment and lifestyle precinct.
Located in the heart of Menlyn Maine, directly opposite Menlyn Maine Mall, the destination brings together:
- A world-class casino
- The 8 500-seat Sunbet Arena, hosting international and local superstars
- Restaurants, lounges and bars offering diverse dining experiences
- Family entertainment, including The Magic Company arcade and bowling
- The Tick Tocks Crèche for supervised childcare
Recent and upcoming performers include Bryan Adams, UB40, Kenny G and Lord of the Dance.
Five-Star Service, No Matter the Room
Across all 238 rooms, including 10 suites, guests can expect contemporary design, warm hospitality and consistently high service standards. Zenith Level guests enjoy added privileges, including a premium breakfast buffet in the Luminary Lounge and access to Solis Bar with its splash pool and city views.
The hotel’s fully equipped gym offers 360-degree views of Pretoria and Menlyn, while dynamic pricing and value-added packages, from Date Night to extended-stay and senior offers, ensure flexibility and value.
“The innovative concept allows travellers to tailor their accommodation to suit their needs and budget,” says Rooms Division Manager Lesego Kitsa. “Despite the variable room rating, we are proud that the service standard throughout the hotel, from reception to restaurants, remains five-star.”
Confidently Named. Purposefully Designed.
Time Square Hotel’s new name reflects exactly what it is: a modern, adaptable hotel at the centre of one of Gauteng’s most dynamic destinations, where guests can choose how they stay, without compromise.
