AtholPlace Hotel & Villa, Johannesburg

Description: AtholPlace Hotel & Villa

Located in the chic Atholl district, on the doorstep of Johannesburg's most important shopping and business centre, Sandton, AtholPlace Hotel & Villa is situated in one of the most beautiful parts of the city. Originally built as a family home in the 1970s, the Hotel and Villa were converted into a small luxury boutique hotel in 2009, and offer exclusive accommodation, top-class cuisine and discreet, polished service in a delightful garden setting.

Part of the ''Morukuru Family'' collection of hotels, and privately owned and managed, AtholPlace Hotel & Villa is also the first Relais & Chateaux Hotel in Johannesburg. With interiors designed and decorated in a warm blend of neutral and natural shades, wood and wicker, contemporary furniture and unique pieces of African artwork, AtholPlace Hotel & Villa is an oasis of calm amidst the hustle and bustle of the city. On warm summer's days, guests can enjoy the large, heated outdoor pool and beautiful landscaped gardens, while the delightful library features an open fireplace for those cool wintry evenings.

As befits a five-star establishment of this high standing, AtholPlace Hotel & Villa boasts a fine gourmet restaurant, where head chef Wynand Van Der Watt and his team create daily changing menus based on locally sourced, sustainable produce and the in-house herb garden. Indian and Asian cuisines are also present, and diners can choose from an excellent selection of South African wines.
