A Tuscan-style boutique hotel, set atop a hillside overlooking the vibrant city of Pretoria
In an affluent suburb overlooking Pretoria, Castello Di Monte is a boutique hotel that bears a remarkable semblance to an old 16th-Century Tuscan villa. A wonderful Italian charm surrounds the estate, which is elaborately furnished with classical Italian architecture like the impressive stucco façade and the grand copper gated entrance. A welcoming retreat for city-weary guests, the hotel has a host of excellent facilities, including generous scenic terraces, a stunning outdoor pool, and beautifully landscaped Mediterranean-inspired gardens.
Why we love Castello Di Monte
-
This is a good choice for a pre or post journey on Rovos Rail
-
Spend time in the Italian-influenced landscaped gardens
-
From its elevated position you can enjoy 360-degree views of Pretoria
-
Romantic dinners can be arranged on the hotel's rooftop
Rooms
In keeping with the hotel's 16th-Century splendour, every room is elaborately decorated with a wonderful bygone charm. While only the Terrace Rooms have private balconies, there is a lovely Italian grandeur to all of the rooms, which seamlessly combine warm golden colour schemes and rich period furniture with spacious arched doorways and luxurious bathroom en suites.
Each of the Classic Rooms has a different décor. Spring Classic has a blossom theme whilst Palms Classic is adorned in honey-gold colours.
