Hey there! I’m excited to share some awesome news with you! The Protea Hotel Fire & Ice! by Marriott Durban uMhlanga Ridge opened its doors in July, and it’s a pretty big deal. Not only is it the first Fire & Ice! by Marriott hotel in KwaZulu-Natal, but it’s also the fourth one in all of South Africa. How cool is that?

Now, let me give you a little taste of what this hotel has to offer. Situated in the stunning coastal town of uMhlanga, just a short drive from King Shaka International Airport, this place is seriously picturesque. Think beautiful beaches, a vibrant atmosphere, and a whole lot of fun.

We want to shake things up in uMhlanga. Our goal is to become the hottest spot in town, the place where everyone wants to be.

‘Durban is an exciting, bustling city that needs a hotel brand that matches its vibrant energy. I’m super excited to introduce the Fire & Ice! by Marriott brand to the thriving town of uMhlanga. The Protea Hotel Fire & Ice! by Marriott Durban uMhlanga Ridge will offer the unique, contemporary atmosphere that both visitors and locals in this area are seeking. This property showcases our ability to recognize and adapt to meet the changing needs of a destination,’ shared Volker Heiden, the Area Vice-President for Marriott International.

The fresh appearance of the hotel can only be described as delightfully sassy.

‘This meant that we had to carry out extensive renovations, undergo a complete aesthetic transformation, and change our way of operating. Fire & Ice! by Marriott hotels are not afraid to be unique – they are forward-thinking and exciting. While every hotel has its own distinctive character, it is this cutting-edge nature that brings them all together under the brand. When designing Protea Hotel Fire & Ice! by Marriott Durban uMhlanga Ridge, we had to strike a fine balance to create this wonderfully stylish hotel,’ explained Peter de Klerk, the designer.

Welcome to our newly renovated lobby! As you step inside, you’ll immediately feel the energy of our brand. With a mix of seating options, a DJ booth, and a TV wall, our lobby is the perfect place to relax and unwind. Take a look at our reception area, which now features three sleek pods and a dedicated guest relations desk. And don’t forget to check out our outdoor deck, complete with a retractable awning, three comfortable pods for relaxing and dining, and a sparkling swimming pool. Oh, and how could we forget our vintage VW combi? It’s the finishing touch that truly captures the Fire & Ice! by Marriott atmosphere.

We’ve also reimagined our guest rooms, with 205 completely renovated spaces that are as chic as they are stylish. Each room is designed with your comfort in mind and comes equipped with complimentary Wi-Fi, so you can stay connected throughout your stay. Start your day off right with a sumptuous buffet breakfast at our Breakfast Room, located on the first floor. You’ll have a choice of indoor seating, two private dining rooms, or our beautiful outdoor deck. Speaking of dining, you won’t want to miss our stylish restaurant, which features elegant neutral decor and serves up delicious global cuisine prepared in an open kitchen. Our menu is inspired by African flavors, with a special focus on the culinary specialties of KwaZulu-Natal. From bunny chow to curry, our Fire & Ice! twist adds an unexpected elegance to these classic dishes. And of course, we offer our signature (and egg-ceptional) Fire & Ice! by Marriott breakfast options.

When we created this hotel, we put a lot of thought into its appearance.

‘We really considered how we could make this place completely different from any other hotel, but still maintain the high level of quality and service that Fire & Ice! by Marriott hotels are known for. This hotel is more than just a place to stay or eat. We’re a lifestyle hotel that creates unique experiences, and we can’t wait to welcome guests and visitors to showcase this fresh approach to hospitality,’ said Thuthukile Moloto, General Manager of Protea Hotel Fire & Ice! by Marriott Durban uMhlanga Ridge.
