Property Description
Discover a location overlooking the majestic mountains and famous vineyards of the historical village of Franschhoek, about 80 km east of Cape Town. The hotel prides itself on its charming ambience, gracious style and attentive service. This 4-star property has a rich history, with one section dating back to the 1880s. The town itself takes its name from the French Huguenots who settled in the area in the early 1680s after fleeing from their home country. Our convenient location is a superb base from which to explore Franschhoek's culinary establishments, art galleries, cheese factories and some 25 world famous wine estates. The hotel boasts a renowned restaurant, luxury accommodations and a sparkling swimming pool. Outdoor activities such as horse-riding, golf, backpacking and trout-fishing can also be arranged. The main hotel consists of 40 Deluxe on-suite bedrooms and boasts 10 fully equipped self catering apartments across the road from the main hotel.

Absolutely Fabulous Stay at Protea Hotel Franschhoek
We had a fabulous stay at the Protea Hotel in Franschhoek—easily one of the highlights of our South Africa trip. The location is perfect—walking distance to shops, wine bars, and top-notch restaurants—but still feels peaceful and tucked away.
The rooms were stylish, comfortable, and spotless, with thoughtful touches that made it feel like more than just a chain hotel. The staff went above and beyond—warm, helpful, and genuinely kind without being overbearing.
The pool and garden area were lovely for a mid-day wine break, and the breakfast was fresh, generous, and beautifully presented. Everything felt calm, elegant, and easy—the kind of place where you immediately exhale and relax.
Would absolutely stay again. A gem in the Winelands.

upon arriving at the hotel the staff was super friendly. so helpful and polite and willing to help. the location of the hotel is a great and beautiful Franschoek.
the room was okay it felt more like a Airbnb than that hotel. it was not what we expected and not for the price we paid. the room felt a little bit updated and they were some essential items missing. there was also no milk for your coffee and no coffee at all. if you want to order something you had to add an additional hundred rounds to get it delivered to your door. some of the things and the room let it felt outdated. the view of the parking lot is also not what was expected. the beautiful views were across the road in the hotel. The pictures was a bit misleading and disappointing when arriving to the room.

I stayed in the apartments section and it was lovely. The view from the balcony in the morning was serene. My only regret was not staying longer. The room was super clean and the shower was piping hot. Great location and friendly staff.

Noisy fridge.
I am a light sleeper and was kept awake by refrigerator motor stopping and starting. The fridge was stupidly situated right next to the bed. I do not think that the fridge was faulty.

It is an awesome property, but keep in mind that the Protea Chain in South Africa is not well integrated with Marriott. You need to get a paper receipt and apply for points later.

Hotel is nice but there aren’t enough seating areas around the pool, in particular sun beds. Rooms facing the road are a little noisy and dark. Breakfast area is dated and tired - it’s a nice hotel, polite staff but it’s looking a little dated
