Fire & Ice - Cape Town

The vibrant 3 star Protea Hotel Fire and Ice! Cape Town is centrally situated in the heart of Cape Town between New Church and Victoria Street, South Africa. This unique city hotel offers adventure seekers Cape Town accommodation with a difference. Guests may relax in the hotel's reception area in the retro hanging chair or stay cool by taking a swim around the Fire & Ice Hotel's restaurant in the exceptional 'wrap around' swimming pool.
 
The newly extended hotel offers exceptional value for money, exceeding the usual 3-star stereotype with “Gucci” style décor, slick service and features usually expected in luxury hotels.

The ultra chic lighting from the Mad Hatter high back chairs in the hotel's restaurant, the coffin seats in the smoking lounge and other unique features create a one of its kind accommodation venue. This vibey and modern Cape Town city hotel provides guests with a place to unwind from where to explore Cape Town's many sights and attractions in and around the city.
 
Protea Hotel Fire & Ice has gone through an evolution over the past few years from a small hotel aimed at the adventurous to a more urban chic vibe.  It is targeted at the “forever young” set of people. The hotel has added a further 59 rooms and 12 loft apartments, a complimentary Internet centre, fitness centre with state of the art Technogym equipment, 24 hour room service and a private lounge and pool area, only for hotel guests. The existing restaurant and lounge areas have also been redecorated to incorporate an edgier and stylish feel to compliment the extension.
 
The hotel won Best New Hotel Development at the TBCSA 2008 Hospitality Investment Awards which ties in nicely with the recent Sunday Times Generation Next 2009 annual youth survey, where Protea Hotels was awarded the Coolest Hotel Group in the hotel category.
 
The major attraction, however, is the state of the art, yet affordable, conference facilities which will definitely appeal to corporate companies looking for a unique offering. These facilities include three separate venues that are ideally suited for executive board meetings and two multi-use rooms equipped to hold functions for up to 80 delegates, making this the perfect venue for product launches, conferences, training or end of year parties.
