I would just create a custom validation function:

/**
 * function intRange
 *
 * Checks if a value is an integer within the
 * range given (inclusive)
 *
 * @param $value to be checked
 * @param $start of range
 * @param $end of range
 * @return bool
 */
function intRange($value,$start,$end) {
        // Verify the value is an int
        if (!is_int($value)) return false;

        // Verify the value is within the range
        if ($value<$start) return false;
        if ($value>$end) return false;

        // Passed all tests
        return true;
}

use it in your validation array like this:

        'hour' => array(
            'rule' => array('intRange', 0, 23),
            'message' => 'Please enter an integer between 0 and 23'
        )
