Due to the financial impact of Covi-19, Protea Hotels by Marriott Cape Town, Victoria junction has closed its doors to the public.

Volker Heiden, the area vice president of Marriott International, Sub-Saharan Africa, confirmed that the hotel won’t be part of Marriott International or part of the Protea Hotels by Marriott brand portfolio.

The property was handed back to HPF Properties (Pty) Ltd.

“The impact of Covid-19 on the hospitality industry has been unprecedented. Travel restrictions and social distancing efforts around the world have resulted in weaker demand and economic uncertainty.

“Due to the financial impact of the situation and having explored the relevant avenues available to us, we must shut the doors at Protea Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Victoria Junction.

“These are indeed challenging times, and our thoughts are with the associates impacted by this decision. We value their hard work and dedication over the years and thank them for their service,” Heiden said.
