Protea Hotel by Marriott Johannesburg | Guest Room, 1 King, Garden view, Balcony (65units)

Our country-style hotel in Sandton CBD stands apart, offering a heritage experience that merges traditional charm with contemporary comfort. It’s one of Sandton’s most iconic business‑and‑leisure hotels — a classic property with lush gardens, two outdoor pools, and timeless charm right in the heart of Africa’s premier financial district.

Established in 1949 and beautifully modernized, this historic property escapes standard skyscraper designs by featuring two distinct wings—the Balalaika and the Crown Court—each boasting its own lush, landscaped garden and sparkling outdoor swimming pool. Guests can indulge in elite in-house dining at The Bull Run Steakhouse, relax on the terrace at The Conservatory Restaurant, or sip historic cocktails inside The Lords Bar.

At The Conservatory, savour meals that seamlessly integrate with the garden and terrace views. The Bull Run Restaurant invites you to enjoy a classic New York-style steakhouse atmosphere, where we serve premium South African beef cuts aged on-site. Lords Bar tells the story of Sandton’s first bar, adding a nostalgic touch to your visit.

Coffee on Twenty is perfect for grabbing a quick coffee or deli treat, while the Destination Lounge offers an exclusive space for VIP guests to enjoy a tapas menu.
