A wonderful property to stay, we were upgraded to the presidential suite which was large with two bathrooms. Very nice old world charm. The food was a bit of a disappointment. Breakfast and service was not up to the standards of the room and cost. Breakfast was included but was limited and was served cold though the plate was very hot? We had dinner one evening it was expensive and the vegetables were cold but the meat was warm and delicious. We were the only guest and the service was slow and they struggled with making an Iris coffee after dinner. It is a fantastic location and Hazelwood is only few miles away filled with great and fun restaurants. It has been a wonderful experience and a welcome change from the chain hotels we will definitely return.

Very scary, no sleep

Woke up midnite to find someone in your room in Sourh Africa is no joke. Person had a key to enter our room and lock the door again when he left the room as we woke up. It took us a while to get our door keys that fell on the floor in the dark. We phoned all the available numbers - nobody answered. Even the security guard at the gate, could not get hold of the owner / management. The television did not work. Have to move furniture to get hold of plugs to charge our phones. The aircon could not be put off, due to the remote not working and no plug to put it off.

Best hotel in Pretoria, by far!

Easily the best hotel in Pretoria and one of the best in all of South Africa. To put it simply, this place made me feel like a king (quite literally). Everything from comfort, service, food, location were TOP-NOTCH. The only thing I could possibly recommend is that the hotel invest in a second backup power generator. The power was out and the main generator was being serviced when I needed to check out, so checkout was made difficult and since the wifi was also down I couldn't order an Uber. Other than that this place was excellent and the staff were very warm and welcoming and always willing to help. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Pretoria.

Very luxurious, safe and highly recommended

We would definitely stay here again when visiting Pretoria / Johannesburg.

The staff, facilities, room, multilevel terraces were lovely and the onsite chef / restaurant has breakfast, lunch and dinner available.
Wonderful ambience and friendly, attentive caring staff.
Security at the gate and grounds. In the same suburb as many foreign embassies, the area is leafy and green.
Lovely room service with the ability to dine on your own private large terrace under shade and cooling breezes.
We also used the Ulysses tour company which the hotel kindly arranged for us, and had a day private tour with a driving guide.

Thank you to all the staff for a very pleasant 2 night stay prior to us boarding The Blue Train.

Beautiful mansion turned into B&B

This tuscan-style home and gardens was a beautiful sight with wonderful views of Pretoria as it sits atop a hill. The service was impeccable. It was my husband's birthday and they treated us so special with a private room for dinner with the fireplace on. Food was so good we decided to eat there our second night also. We loved the views from the rooftop patio as we enjoyed our wine and cheese platter watching the sun go down. I can't say enough good things about their wonderful service in every way from the moment we pulled into their driveway.

Wonderful place to stay

This hotel is in a beautiful location with a great view of Pretoria. Rooms were very roomy and clean with comfortable beds. Staff were very attentive and helpful. They arranged a tour of Pretoria for us that was very informative. They are out of the way so it was very quiet. There is only one restaurant nearby so we decided to eat at the hotel rather than go out. Food and service were excellent. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone who wants to have a great place to stay.

Luxury stay

The entire property and the house is beautifully decorated with quality furnishings and not just a little bit of luxury. Our room was spacious with a huge bathroom, dressing room, very comfortable bed and an enormous terrace overlooking Pretoria.
*The only thing that could be improved is the small shower head and low water pressure in the shower.

The staff were friendly and welcoming.
Breakfast was a la carte with a large range of options and was beautifully cooked.
Highly recommend a stay here if your looking for a luxury break!

Amazing guesthouse

I could not find fault with any part of this hotel. The staff, location, ambiance, rooms, this has been quiet possibly the very best hotel I have ever stayed at. Easy walking distance from a very good French Resturant, try the tasting menu with wine. Located in a safe area so you are able to walk around. Close to the Brooklyn Mall, 2 miles.

Beautiful place to relax

We really loved our stay. The staff is wonderful and the villa itself was enchanting. We had just spent two weeks traveling around Swaziland and having a couple of nights to unwind here was just what we needed. The meals were wonderful and the servers were sweet. My only disappointment was our turn down service on the second night was a bit lacking but everyone else was completely up to snuff. I felt like a princess there. Being from the US I have to tell you the price of the meals can not be beat. We had 2 full 3 corse dinners lunch in our room beer and wine and 2 full breakfasts and it was $125
You can't get that here.
If you are ever in the area I highly recommend booking the terrace room.
You will not be disappointed.

Castle Living

A terrific set up for a boutique hotel and a welcome change from the hotel brands. The staff was always very nice and helpful, they set up the best excursions and the dinners were wonderfully attended by the great team. The bonus was the beautiful view. It is a little off the beaten path, but we always had a driver. Once there you don't really have options to walk to dinner, but staying in is a treat!

Best place to stay in Johannesburg/Pretoria

The accommodations, food, and service are truly 5-star. Fantastic free breakfast each morning with a full compliment of continental and English Breakfast with optional waffles, jam, and cream for dessert. We were able to have our 3-course dinner served in our room, which was absolutely fantastic. We are from New York, and we know good food, and this was the best dinner we had in a two week visit to South Africa and was excellent by all standards! The rooms with the terraces and views -- and common areas are so beautiful. Our room had a huge private terrace. The staff is fantastic! Just save yourself some time looking, and book here.

Beautiful \"Guest\" house

Sadly, we only stayed for one night after arriving in SA and went out with family, but we loved this gem of a guest house. Location was great and the rooms were wonderful. Breakfast was very good after a great sleep in a huge comfortable bed. Would we stay again - absolutely

Relaxing Escape

Nothing bad to say but if it had a spa there would be no reason to go anywhere else.

Terraces and Views

Castello di Monte sits in an excellent neighborhood in East Pretoria. The pictures did not capture the beauty of this small boutique hotel. You are on top of the largest hill, and really feel like you have the place all to yourself. There are several outdoor terraces, many attached to rooms and many in common areas, and a rooftop terrace and tower terrace with 360 degree views. There is a park and a golf course very near the property. We spent lots of time outside. The free breakfast is excellent each morning, and the staff attended to our every need. The rooms were huge, and far enough away from each other that we felt we had ample privacy. Our new favorite place to stay in Pretoria. Would make a great place for a wedding or special occasion.
