This is a beautiful traditional Cape style furnished facility. A welcoming staff and servers are constantly attentive. Breakfast is plentiful, fresh and delicious and beautifully presented. The room is clean and comfortable, the amenities replenished daily.
Well situated away from the noise of touristy places but easily accessible by car and a safe location.
Highly recommend this wonderful hotel

The hotel was beautiful and full of historic charm. The on-site Wild Fern restaurant had delicious food and a cozy atmosphere. My only \"negative\" was that both Apple Maps and Google maps struggled to map directions to the property--they both routed us through the hospital drive which is closed to through traffic. Not the hotel's fault, just a heads up to other travelers.

Short stay with Protea Hotel

My son and I visited CT for 4 days and according to them I booked for 2 adults. No one phoned before we arrived to confirm our booking. They couldn't help me with an explanation on how it happened; booking app's fault or theirs? Breakfast service was excellent. Our fire alarm went off twice. The reception had no idea about the fire alarm that went off at weird times - early mornings and even at night really late.
Feedback would be appreciated.

Unbelievably good value for money

Charming main building makes you feel like your in the winelands yet you are minutes
from city, spacious comfortable rooms, excellent on site restaurant. Absolutely best value for money. Only drawback and reason for amazing price is the highway noise in the background. Doesn’t bother you when in your room and you can’t see it but you can hear it by pool and in public areas.

Look for other options - very poor value!

This hotel is not only in a very difficult to find and odd location, but it felt old and run down.
As a solo female traveler I felt unsafe opening my door in the dark and would not have walked to my car. My room itself was ok but outside my door the view of a 10 foot trash pile in a parking lot.
There was no in room thermostat and I opened my balcony door at 3an to get some air as I was roasting and a man ( hopefully guest) was standing in the middle of the courtyard and spooked me. Perhaps smoking or perhaps other. Regardless I shut and locked the balcony door.
The staff was friendly but the atmosphere and Furniture in common areas looked Like grandmas house - not in a kitschy antique way but in a run down old way.
I absolutely would not recommend this hotel. Especially for a solo female traveler.

I booked it by mistake but thought maybe it would be ok as it’s near UCT
This may have been my most uncomfortable hotel stay of my adult life and I’m 50!

loved that it was not in the hub of the city but still accessible to all the attractions. Loved the peace and quiet and the feeling that we were in a little place of heaven, far from the madding crowd.
Loved the staff and that they ALL made us feel that we were the most important guests. Everyone from the check-in to the people who cleaned the floors, would stop and smile and ask how the day was going.
Breakfast included too...and a full buffet, hot and cold and all presented with a smile.

Our suite was really comfortable with a cupboard kitchen, separate lounge area and a most comfortable, wide bed. Just have ear plugs ready as you may get noise through the night from highway traffic. But do not let this put you off. Great value for money, a straight forward drive from the airport and riverside, parkland grounds.

Great hotel, and adjoining restaurant. On check-in, the receptionist tried to charge me again (having pre-paid). And on check-out tried to charge more tourist levy. Just be aware of what you’ve already paid! However, they were happy to accept my side of the story, and I would stay again.

Area isn't great. Could not safely walk to restaurants or places to work. The working conditions were a bit hard as their lounge did not have any tables to set a computer on and the dining spaces didn't have WiFi. Staff was friendly. Room was a nice size, but the bathroom had a lot of mold and mildew in it.

Arrived in the early hours of the morning after a long international flight. Was greeted by pleasant reception staff and porter who came to help us with our bags. We had a two room suite which was wonderfully spacious and comfortable and more than we needed for a single nights stay but much appreciated. Breakfast next morning was extensive, however did feel that all the cooked items could have been done freshly to order rather than kept warm (and somewhat steamed). One lady cooking eggs could have done with some help as she tried to juggle requests for omelettes and fried eggs whilst awaiting refills on omelette ingredients from kitchen staff. All in all, very positive experience.

An amazing place

This is an old 1880s Cape Dutch manor house that has been converted into a hotel. They've kept a lot of the old historical items around, and the lounge is one of the highlights. For the price, it was easily the nicest hotel I've ever stayed at.

Firstly the rating on the internet states 4 star but at the hotel the display is 3 stay. This is misleading your clientele. Secondly the room service is shocking. Service at the Fig Restaurant is unacceptable.

Don't book here

Hotel left me stranded at the airport for multiple hours after midnight. Shuttle never showed after 4 calls.

clean and good breakfast

The room was clean and nice however much smaller than advertised. The breakfast was great. There was no crockery and utensils in the kitchen, so had to constantly ask reception for these. After using the laundry service, one of the items was lost and another incorrectly priced.
