About this hotel

Labotessa is built around seven suites rather than standard rooms, six Signature Suites and one Presidential Suite that stands apart with its own private splash pool. That penthouse spans two storeys, with two lounge areas, two terraces, a fully-equipped kitchen and dining area, and three ensuite bedrooms, all overlooking the city and mountain from the splash pool's edge. Every suite includes Diptyque bathroom products, a Nespresso and Smeg refreshment station, and a yoga mat, a boutique touch throughout. The City Bowl setting places the property among historical monuments and museums, with the airport 19km away. A Cafe and Terrace and a fragrance boutique sit off the lobby, and every suite is reached by direct elevator access, a boutique-hotel detail more common at larger properties.

  • Private penthouse splash pool
  • Six Signature Suites
  • City Bowl location
  • Fully-equipped kitchen

Our take

The Presidential Suite's private splash pool is the standout here, a genuinely rare amenity for a City Bowl boutique property, best suited to families or groups booking the whole penthouse together. Guests in the Signature Suites don't get pool access, so this pick is specifically for the Presidential booking. The historic City Bowl setting adds real sightseeing value around the stay.

  • Book the Presidential Suite specifically if the private splash pool is the reason for your stay, Signature Suites don't include it
  • Use the fully-equipped kitchen for at least one meal, it's a rare inclusion at this scale of property
  • Walk out into the City Bowl's historical monuments and museums, they're on the doorstep

Why we love it

  • Private splash pool on the Presidential Suite
  • Two-storey penthouse with two terraces
  • Fully-equipped kitchen and dining area
  • Diptyque amenities and yoga mats in every suite
Why guests love it

Booking the Presidential Suite at Labotessa means a private splash pool with the city and mountain in view, set into a two-storey penthouse built for a group rather than a couple, with three ensuite bedrooms and a full kitchen to match. It's a different proposition from the Signature Suites below it, which skip the pool entirely, so the splash pool is worth confirming is included before booking.
