Protea Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront Breakwater Lodge

Protea Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront Breakwater Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"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. "
