About Us
We honour the refined legacy of British hospitality—timeless design, dignified service, and gracious detail—while breathing new life into it with African perspective, rhythm, and creativity.
We are not just in the business of hospitality —
we are in the art of remembrance.
At Oryx Hotels, we believe luxury is more than marble and thread count.
It’s the way a place makes you feel.
The warmth in a welcome.
The story behind every stone.
The soul behind every service.
Born from over 35 years of combined experience across continents,
Oryx was created to fuse the timeless grandeur of British heritage
with the rich, radiant spirit of Africa.
We honour legacy — and we reimagine it.
We restore old manors into living experiences.
We manage properties with heart, precision, and purpose.
We consult not from afar, but from within — guiding, curating, transforming.
We don’t just design spaces — we build destinations that breathe.
Oryx Hotels is for those who seek the exceptional, the grounded, the soulful.
For travellers who want to feel, not just stay.
For owners who believe in legacy, not just assets.
For teams who serve not out of duty, but from pride.
This is not a brand.
This is a movement.
Welcome to Oryx Hotels — where stories live, and hospitality has soul.

Our Vision
