Spa and Wellness Hotels in Pretoria

Pretoria is a good place for a slow, restful stay: the pace is calmer than Johannesburg, the Menlyn area has plenty of restaurants, and several hotels add a spa, a gym or yoga classes to the room. Not every hotel with the spa-wellness label lists a spa, so I read each description and say what is really on offer. Apogee Boutique Hotel & Spa and Menlyn Boutique Hotel are the two I would look at first, with MINT Resorts The Blyde as the resort option. The sections below explain how they differ and who each one suits.

Pretoria is calmer and greener than Johannesburg, a government city of wide avenues, museums and the Union Buildings. Spring brings jacaranda blossom to the streets, and the Menlyn area adds shops and restaurants. For a wellness stay that means a slow pace, garden hotels and spa days rather than nightlife.

Spa Facilities, Yoga and Quiet Gardens

A spa stay works best when the treatments, the pool and the quiet are all in the same building. This page lists hotels in Pretoria that carry the wellness label: some have a massage spa or spa facilities, some only a pool, a garden and a gym. I separate the two groups so you know what to expect. Apogee Boutique Hotel & Spa, Menlyn Boutique Hotel, Duke & Duchess Boutique Hotel, The Capital Menlyn Maine and MINT Resorts The Blyde list spa facilities, and I explain what else each one adds.

Apogee Boutique Hotel & Spa is the one I would choose for a wellness stay. It is a modern boutique hotel with spa facilities, a swimming pool with a view, a sun terrace, a lush garden, a fitness centre and yoga classes, and guests rate it 9.3 out of 10. Rooms have air-conditioning, balconies and private bathrooms, so you can rest between treatments without leaving the property. It suits couples and solo travellers who want a calm base with treatments, exercise and a restaurant and bar on site. With a restaurant and a bar on site, it is easy to spend a full day there without needing a car or a plan.

Menlyn Boutique Hotel sits across from Menlyn Shopping Centre and lists a massage spa, an outdoor pool and a casual-dining restaurant, with a rating of 9.1 out of 10. The Capital Menlyn Maine is in the Menlyn Maine green precinct mall, with an outdoor pool, a fitness centre and access to spa facilities, and restaurants and shops steps away. Both suit a stay where the spa is part of the plan but you also want to walk out for lunch, shopping or dinner in the same neighbourhood. Both are in the eastern suburbs, away from the government district around the Union Buildings, and both have an outdoor pool.

Duke & Duchess Boutique Hotel is an adults-only boutique hotel with an outdoor pool, spa and wellness facilities, rooms with a patio and garden views, barbecue facilities and free private parking. Askara Haus is also adults-only, with a year-round outdoor pool, a sun terrace, a garden and bathrobes in the bathrooms, although its listing does not mention a spa. Both are small and quiet, which is what many guests want from a wellness stay, and I would ask Askara Haus directly about treatments. These two properties suit travellers who prefer a small, private hotel to a larger resort, and I would compare their ratings on the listings.

MINT Resorts The Blyde is the resort choice, with spa facilities, a fitness centre, an infinity swimming pool, water sports, a restaurant and a bar. Its listing mentions a private beach area, but Pretoria is inland, so it is a man-made setting beside water, not the coast. It has more than four thousand reviews and a rating of 8.8 out of 10. Hotels such as Protea Hotel by Marriott Pretoria Loftus Park and Regency Apartment Hotel-St@y carry the label but list only a pool, a terrace or a garden, so I would not book them for treatments. I would choose this resort for an active wellness break, and one of the boutique hotels above for a quieter, more private stay.

A traveller's take

I recommend Apogee Boutique Hotel & Spa for a wellness stay in Pretoria, because it lists spa facilities, yoga classes, a pool with a view and a quiet garden. If you want a massage spa within walking distance of restaurants, I would choose Menlyn Boutique Hotel. For an adults-only stay, my pick is Duke & Duchess Boutique Hotel, which lists spa and wellness facilities and rooms with garden views.

The Capital Menlyn Maine8.8Spa & wellness

The Capital Menlyn Maine

Apartments with kitchens in Pretoria's walkable Menlyn Maine precinct

Why guests love it

The apartments are what make this a good family base: up to three bedrooms with a kitchen, so children keep their own routine, and free secure parking for the hire car. Pretoria is outside the malaria zone, and the city's own sights, the Union Buildings, the National Zoological Gardens and the Voortrekker Monument, are 10 to 20 minutes away by car. Within the precinct, BOUNCE trampoline park and the Barnyard Theatre fill a rainy afternoon. The limits are clear: this is a commercial district with a casino next door, the pool is modest, and there is nothing resembling a beach or bush setting. With 8.8 from more than 1,250 reviews, guests rate it well for space and convenience.

Local tips

  1. 1Check what the spa really offers: Menlyn Boutique Hotel lists a massage spa and Apogee Boutique Hotel & Spa lists spa facilities and yoga classes, while some labelled hotels only have a pool.
  2. 2Ask about treatments and opening hours when you book, because the listings give the facilities but not the treatment menu.
  3. 3For an adults-only, quiet stay, choose Duke & Duchess Boutique Hotel or Askara Haus.
  4. 4For restaurants within walking distance, stay in Menlyn at Menlyn Boutique Hotel or The Capital Menlyn Maine.
  5. 5Pretoria is inland: MINT Resorts The Blyde has a man-made beach area beside water, so do not book it expecting the sea.
  6. 6Combine the spa with a day at Freedom Park or the Union Buildings if you want some sightseeing between treatments.
