PHG hotels to feature in the Trendiest Hotels in Africa

African Pride Tribe – The Village Market Hotel, Nairobi, Kenya (5th)
Protea Hotel Fire & Ice! Melrose Arch, Johannesburg (7th)

Protea Hotel Group’s chief executive Arthur Gillis said that in terms of hospitality, Africa was setting world trends, rather than following them. To be trendy isn’t only about being in a beautiful designer building it’s about the feeling and the vibe. Not one specific hotel can hope to make this list if they don’t have the right atmosphere, which is by large created by having the best staff as well as the best service.

The Protea Hotels Group is particularly proud of having the Protea Hotel Fire & Ice! ranked so high in the world and in Africa. This Brand is an exciting one that plays on delivering the delightful and unexpected. This hotel has a lot of talkability and travellers are clearly picking up on it.

The number of South African hotels, in particular, that had made the top list rankings was impressive. 15 of the top 20 hotels in Africa are located in South Africa, and 11 of them are in Cape Town, which was TripAdvisor’s City of the Year in 2011. Cape Town has firmly established its place as one of the top global destinations because if its staggering beauty, friendliness, favourable exchange rate and service culture.
