Protea Hotel Kimberley (Marriott)
West End - Big Hole precinct, West Circular Road, Kimberley, Northern Cape 18–180 guestsRRR · Premium
Overview & Capacity
The obvious residential-conference anchor in Kimberley. Perched right on the Big Hole rim, it pairs 120 hotel rooms with four event spaces topping out at 180 theatre in The View - the room every delegate photographs. Marriott process makes contracting painless and catering is published and sensible. TripAdvisor's 3.6 tells the honest story: unbeatable location, rooms that could use love. For a two-day conference with accommodation, it is still the first call.
