The luxurious 38-roomed Protea Hotel Mossel Bay is a graceful landmark, built in 1846, overlooking Santos Bay and the harbor. 20 min drive to the airport and halfway between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth. 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.The stone walls and Mediterranean-style out-buildings belie the fact that the main building is one of the oldest in Mossel Bay and forms part of the Dias Museum Complex. Previously The Old Post Office Tree Manor Hotel, the Protea Hotel Mossel Bay, situated off Santos beach, could best be described as a hotel complex. It comprises of a breakfast patio with sea view and Cafe Gannet Seafood Restaurant - "Mossel Bay's Seafood House", overlooking the Bay and Outeniqua Mountains . The Blue Oyster cocktail bar, adjacent to the pool, overlooks Santos Bay.Show More

AI Summary
The hotel impresses with stunning harbor views, excellent breakfast, and attentive staff. It also features a great pool area and spacious, modern rooms. However, some may find the bouncy castle for kids distracting.

The hotel is in a good location, close to the harbor and shopping center and a 6-minute drive to the beautiful "The Point." Our modern room is very large, 60 cm. on 2 floors, with a view of the harbor. The breakfast is excellent and is served in a beautiful restaurant with a sea view. The staff is always very friendly. Parking is free.

The location is very good
The waiters are very attentive
But maybe the room next to the old wing where I stayed was very noisy when taking a shower and the exhaust fan in the room was very loud. These improvements will be made in the future.

The service is average, the location is good, and the parking space is outside on the roadside. There were allegedly hotel security guards watching. There are still four-star standards.

The location of the hotel is very good, next to the sea, there is a beach
Free security at the entrance of the parking lot.
There are supermarkets around. Pay attention to the business hours. When we arrived, it was Sunday and most shops were closed.
The room is clean, but the washbasin is separated from the hot and cold water. I'm not used to it~ If you don't care about the money, it's better to book a balcony with a sea view
The breakfast selection is also very rich. We had curry chicken that day
Next to the hotel is a museum of the first Portuguese to land here
There's a lighthouse a few kilometers away

We were greeted with such a warm welcome when we checked in . We had a 2 storey suite with sea view that was lovely. We were given a bottle of champagne as we were celebrating our anniversary such a nice touch. The bed was the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in it felt like a cloud. The pool area was lovely, we couldn’t get into the restaurant as we had left it too late to book. I love the fact they put bottled water in your room twice a day. Couple of things that could be improved we only had 2 Bath towels and 1 hand towel between us each day plus one of the wall secured shampoos by the bath was empty . The TV in the bedroom only had 2 channels both with a bad signal and the TV in the lounge area lost signal and we couldn’t recover it but to be fair we didn’t contact reception to ask for assistance. The 2 balconies were wonderful with a sea view and I would recommend staying here .

The hotel is located just above the harbour right in town. The nice setup of the hotel and then great rooms does not make up for the poor service. We arrived 10 minutes before check-in time and were reminded in an irritating tone that we are too early. At check-in time we were then told the rooms are not ready with no excuse. They also had no clue about the Marriott benefits and could not even figure out thru which channel the reservation was made. The stay points still not credited a month later. There is a couple of secure car park bays in the backyard but those should be booked to avoid disappointment. The staff was not very friendly and the invocie was not issued in a timely manner and was not right but not worth the fuss. On our next visit to the region we will avoide this hotel and take the longer drive to George where there are better hotels available.

Do not get the bottom rooms, which open up to the pool area and are heavily trafficked in the morning.
