Protea Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront Breakwater Lodge

The room was very convenient and comfortable. I stayed in another room with my work, that was at the university building. Although that room was also fine, the furniture was very rundown and didn't feel clean. I think for the money that is charged that was not ok at all. However, this room felt more comfortable and clean.

Great location, tasty breakfast. Very good service. Friendly and helpful staff.

Ok so it’s good, no real complaints and it’s quite close to the V&A but then again it’s far enough away to be a little risky to walk and yet too close to take na Uber. I did walk but I heard reports of issues with theft after dark so beware. But back to the “hotel”, I stayed in a part of the old prison, it’s now a college and it was a tad weird to be wandering around between college lecture rooms and student lecturers etc. did it detract from my stay? No, just a tad odd! That said, reception staff were very friendly and I have no complaints !

The Marriott Protea Waterfront is ideally suited for the Waterfront in Cape Town. Far enough from the hubub to be peaceful, near enough to walk and enjoy the wonderful offerings of the location. Chilled water with cucumber and fruit daily in Reception and coffee was much appreciated. Spa was excellent and very affordable and the university buildings and setting in an old prison was really very interesting and fun. Parking in the car park was easy to access and safe and the security staff were welcoming and there was plenty of space. Overall a really lovely home from home.

Great location by the V&A Waterfront, super nice and helpful staff, delicious breakfast buffet, very comfortable room, all for good value. We were even offered a complimentary day room to freshen up upon our early arrival while awaiting to check into our reserved room. Much appreciated!
