Official Description (provided by the hotel):: The luxurious 31-roomed Protea Hotel Mossel Bay is a graceful landmark, built in 1846, overlooking Santos Bay and harbour. Nestling on the Mossel Bay shoreline with the majestic Outeniqua Mountains as a backdrop, the Protea Hotel Mossel Bay is singled out from other establishments. Protea Hotel Mossel Bay is situated 5 min from Santos Beach. Take in the sea air whilst dining at Café Gannet, where you can sample local mussels, fresh fish and oysters or try the chefs daily specials. As sunset arrives, visit the Legendary Blue Oyster Cocktail Bar, with its own special ambience, pool deck and superb sea views, is the perfect place to kick off a decadent evening out or simply just to relax and enjoy the sunset with an aperitif before dinner. Added attractions are the close proximity to shopping facilities, the yacht club, harbour and north-facing, sun splashed beaches. As part of the museum complex, the Maritime, Local History and Shell Museum, as well as the Old Post Office Tree, are all within strolling distance. The new golf estate is 2km away and the airport a 20 minute drive. ... more less

“The only Protea Hotel I've stayed at with character!”

Reviewed 10 May 2013

Stayed here for just 1 night last week. It's off season so Mossel Bay was absolutely dead. Lovely if you want some peace and quiet - but was maybe just a little too quiet for us. I'm sure during the busy Summer peak season it's absolutely buzzing and would love to come back and see that side of Mossel Bay... More

We had booked a Family Room but it was really not big enough for us with a 13 & 11 year old. The beds were comfortable but the room itself small and tatty. It is advertised as having wifi but that was not working and according to other guests hadn't been for a few days. The on site restaurant is... More
