Castello Di Monte
Pretoria

Perfection in Pretoria – Castello di Monte is pure indulgence. A Tuscan villa transplanted to the southern hemisphere, complete with olive trees and richly-scented lavender, this five star gem is a true find. Every detail, down to the granite staircase and the frescoed ceilings evoke continental decadence.

The sumptuous enormous rooms and suites come complete with features such as fireplaces, jacuzzis and even hand-painted murals – the presidential suite is particularly special. Breakfast here is a delight – look out for glorious views of Jacarandas in full bloom. Aperitifs on the terrace with its 360-degree view of the city skyline and dinner in the palazzo-style dining room make for an elegant evening.

Fast Wi-Fi and courteous knowledgeable staff who are ready to arrange anything needed are welcome additions to this highly-recommended choice. The hotel itself is on the edge of the city in the ambassadorial district and transfers are recommended to and from the property for ease of travel.

Client Testimonials

So many highlights to choose from! The hotels were amazing but Maya Villa was a highlight… I loved just hanging out in the hammock reading my book and watching the peacocks chase the cows!

Everything you did for us whilst we were away was hugely appreciated, and Ampersand has been exemplary in every way. I'll always recommend you!
- Mr Richard Stoughton, Sri Lanka
I thought the Ampersand team was outstanding. We couldn’t have hoped for anything more.
- Mr Geoffrey Johnson, India
Ampersand’s preparation, attention to detail and interaction before and during our trip show exactly why good travel agents have a role in today’s internet booking age. They were a delight to deal with!
- Mr David Wallace, North India
We had a wonderful holiday - everything was perfect. Thank you for helping us to make a thoughtful plan to enjoy and make most out of our trip. The places we visited, the guides, the transportation and driver, the hotels selected... Everything was great!
- Jaime Benitez, South India
Ampersand provided a bespoke and flexible holiday, tailored to my every whim. Their highly professional staff had only one goal which was to arrange an exceptional holiday and some unforgettable experiences in India. I have no hesitation in fully recommending them and they will be the first company I approach in the future - 10/10
- Anonymous, India
I had a very lovely time and was looked after splendidly. My first visit to India could not have been better, save for being longer! But I shall return at some point and I shall look to you to make the arrangements.
- Matthew Nicklin, North India
Without question, you put together the best trip I have ever taken. We were shown around like visiting dignitaries, the hotels were fantastic and the itinerary was just right. Everybody I know will hear about how amazing Ampersand is!
- Leslie Siben, India
I would recommend Ampersand without any hesitation!!! The best travel agent that I’ve ever had. Everything – from the individual care and attention in planning the trip, through to the efficiency of the agents on the ground in India – was handled brilliantly. An absolutely first-class service all round!
- Matthew Annable, Rajasthan, India
Difficult to articulate just how good the service from you and your team really was. We know you will continue to do well and hope we have the chance to seek your assistance again before long.
