Fodor's Expert Review Villa Monticello

No such thing as cookie-cutter accommodations here—every room is different, and each one more interesting than the next. The regal cocoa room has fringed satin pillows and a velvet Queen Anne-style chair; a curved, black settee embellishes the city room; geometric shapes and photos of African culture appoint what feels like the business suite. All are spacious, comfortable and just a 10-minute drive to the city and a little over 2 km (1 mile) away from the airport.
