HAVING undergone extensive refurburbishment, Rijk's Boutique Hotel near Tulbagh in the Cape Winelands has joined Protea’s luxury African Pride Hotel portfolio.

Built in 1997, this 5-star property is just over an hour’s drive from Cape Town, positioning itself as a luxury weekend getaway. Guests can wine taste at the nearby Rijk's Private Cellar, just one of many wine estates in the area that produce world-class wines. The hotel offers 12 superior suites and three two-bedroom family cottages with views of a nearby lake. “When selecting a property for the African Pride Hotel portfolio, we take our time in handpicking those that show potential for a complete luxurious offering, and Rijk's Boutique Hotel fits perfectly in line with that requirement,” says Danny Bryer, marketing & revenue director at Protea Hotels.
