Fodor's Expert Review Protea Hotel Mossel Bay

Just a few steps from the Bartolomeu Dias Museum Complex, this stylish hotel is close to most of what's happening in Mossel Bay. You can take in the great views of the harbor and the beach while relaxing at the Blue Oyster Pool Lounge. Strange nooks and crannies and yard-thick stone walls testify to the building's status as one of the oldest in Mossel Bay (it dates back to the mid-19th century). The rooms are bright and spacious, with exposed-brick walls and tasteful decor. Self-catering suites have two balconies overlooking the water.
