The Forum Homini five star boutique Hotel is located in a private game reserve, "The Cradle of Humankind", one of the world's most famous heritage sites. Here you can explore the planet of the ages and visit a dozen dolomitic limestone caves. View the fossilised remains of ancient forms of animals, plants and most importantly, hominids – all this just 40 minutes from Johannesburg and Pretoria.
Sweeping views of the valley abound from luxury suites with roofs covered in African veldt. This unique design has a slightly subterranean feel with long grassveld creeping up the walls. This allows for an almost cave–like experience. Light and shadow play on the sheer expanses of glass, ensuring natural light and warmth.
