Protea Hotel Victoria Junction Waterfront

The Hotel

The Protea Hotel Victoria Junction Waterfront originally opened its doors in 1996 and quickly became known as one of the most innovative Hotels in Cape Town. Built in an industrial style, the decor included some quirky film set themes that made the hotel very popular with film and production houses.

The hotel is situated in the urban landscape of Greenpoint, one of Cape Town’s up and coming suburbs. The location offers easy access to major Cape Town tourist attractions as well as the CBD, the Cape Town International Convention Centre and the V&A Waterfront for GUESTS staying on business.

The Hotel provides a new contemporary urban lifestyle where you can live, work and play within a 5 kilometre radius. Walk to the Cape Quarter Lifestyle Centre and the Greenpoint Park or cycle on the new pedestrian and cycle ways. Catch a My City bus or the red Cape Town Tourism bus to visit Clifton, Camps Bay beach or as far as Simon’s Town and Constantia!

All 172 fresh bedrooms feature sleek, modern design that offer environmentally friendly lighting, water-saving rain showers and energy efficient entertainment options like the Bravia LCD screens and iPod docking stations.

Features

Restaurant 

The Connexxion Restaurant is the perfect option for guests on the go. The cuisine caters more for locals as the Tapas styled menu makes for social dining in an informal setting. Our breakfast buffet remains of international standard with a huge variety of items to choose from and for your convenience – breakfast hours over weekends are extended so you can sleep in!

The funky bar, open 18 hours a day, offers an extensive wine by the glass list at extremely reasonable prices, which will find favour with “Capetonians” on the hunt for that perfect after-work get-together, or simply a meeting place over a great cappuccino and some tapas.

Connexxion Restaurant Menu Options:

1. A la carte menu
2. Breakfast menu
   

The trendy menu includes some innovative organic wines & cocktails which look set to become trademarks, and guests can then work them off in the brand new gym.

The Virgin Active gym is also popular with guests looking for a full house workout or try Zone Fitness at Cape Quarter! We can hook you up with access vouchers for both!
