Part of the steadily expanding Moloko Hotels and Resorts stable, which is renowned for its superlative selection of premium luxury hotels and fine dining restaurants, AtholPlace is the epitome of understated elegance and offers a fresh perspective on business and leisure travel.
This cosmopolitan hotel takes its inspiration from the calming colours and rich textures of Africa and the fascinating history of the “dark” continent.
A fusion of different influences punctuate the graceful passageways and welcoming living spaces throughout the hotel. It’s an ecclectic mix of contemporary, art deco and Victorian, with nods to colonial and tribal muses such as steamer trunks positioned cheek by jowl with African artefacts. Antique furniture and stunning objets d’art from seeminly every style era are blended with sumptuous fabrics and traditional designs to create a uniquely classy and stylish identity.
And in homage to Africa’s rich natural environment, natural wood finishes and touches of rich mahogany, mocca and cocoa add accents to the neutral backcloth of cool grey and white. The end result creates a soothing, tranquil atmosphere throughout the hotel, from its plush reception rooms to the 10 individually designed guest suites.
The suites themselves make no compromise when it comes to luxury, offering crisp white percale Frette bed linen imported from Italy, duck-down duvets and soft, silky cushions. In addition, each suite has a range of top-notch facilities, including plush bathrobes and slippers, a 42-inch LCD flat screen television with DSTV and complimentary wireless and ADSL internet.
