6/10 Good

Spectacular team: attentive and helpful. Excellent location. The rooms were clean, but here is the area for improvement: they are very cramped. The double bed was exceptionally small—it felt like a large single bed. Also, the photo of the room we booked was quite different from the room we actually received.

4/10 Fair

My stay at Protea Hotel Cape Town was acceptable, but clearly below the standard I have experienced at other Protea properties, particularly Protea Hotel Luanda. The service is professional but quite impersonal. Staff members do their job, but there is little warmth or effort to make guests feel truly welcome. This contrasts strongly with my experience in Luanda, where the team genuinely made guests feel at home. Even today I remember the name of the desk people at Protea Luanda Osvaldo, Benza, and at the restaurant as Hugo, Priscila, Jacintha.. and so.. The main disappointment was the gym. At the time of booking, the hotel was advertised as having a gym. Upon arrival, it turned out that there is no gym at all, and even the staff seemed unaware of its supposed existence. This is misleading and unfortunate. Overall, a decent hotel in terms of basics, but lacking the human touch and service experience I expect from the Protea brand.

Bar was bad, No pool, no Gym even though saying there was a Gym when booked.

Ronak, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We absolutely loved staying at this hotel. My husband and I got married in Cape Town while we stayed here and we loved all the conveniences. It’s in the waterfront district so you can easily walk to all the shops and dining and it’s super safe. We had no problems walking on our own at night and felt completely safe- that was a big deal for us as most places are not like that. Beautiful rooms and great food. We loved our stay here- no complaints at all.
Rachel, 6-night trip

6/10 Good

Loud, paper-thin walls. Doors slamming all night. Pipes knocking nonstop.
Marquette, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Hotel looks nothing like the pictures. It’s awful. The rooms are terrible. Do not book at this hotel. You will only be disappointed. Spoke to a member of staff about it and the said that even the pictures on their own website are deceiving. Friendly staff but awful hotel!

It’s great that this hotel offers family rooms and is super close to the V&A. We have stayed a couple of times now and both times we have been woken very early (about 5am) by other guests or noisy pipes. This is not a quiet hotel

Great spot at the Waterfront

Terrific location at the V&A Waterfront. Large, comfortable room and an excellent breakfast with lots of options. The staff members were very friendly and helpful.
