Hotel Protea Hotel Fire & Ice (Standard Room) (ex. Extreme)

What a great idea for hotel! Themed around and catering for anyone with even a vague interest in extreme sports is this stylish and contemporary hotel. The chandeliers in the lobby are held up with climbing rope, one of the lifts is designed to look like a diving cage surrounded by sharks and the other a cable car - attention to detail here is amazing and is sure to make you smile. Rooms are stylish, with modern furnishing but not huge - the idea is that the public areas are so nice that who wants to be in their room that much anyway! Never the less the rooms are lovely! A recommended hotel for anyone of any age with a fun outlook on life.
