Gold and the history of Johannesburg are intertwined. The discovery of gold in the late 1890s led to a gold rush by prospectors from all over the world to the area now known as Johannesburg. A mere 6km from Johannesburg's bustling city centre lies Gold Reef City Village, a unique reminder of that bygone era. Centred around shaft No. 14, which was started in 1887, Gold Reef City is an inimitable combination of a theme park, a living museum of Victorian architecture and lifestyle and Africa's most unique hotel - the Protea Hotel Gold Reef City.

This 4-star hotel offers the chance to escape the pressures of modern day living in a safe and secure environment of fun and Old World elegance. There is a choice of 6 restaurants to delight the palate, from stylish restaurants to the more casual eateries. The hotel offers 74 elegantly appointed rooms in classic Victorian decor, all with en-suite bathrooms. Conference facilities cater for up to 180 delegates and a chapel is on hand for "spontaneous weddings".

All furnishings in the rooms were specially selected to reflect the charm and elegance enjoyed by the opulent residents of the 1890's. Skilled craftsmen ensured that exact replicas of the antique furniture were created by hand, thus giving each item an authentic look. The newly refurbished and stylish Protea Hotel Gold Reef City restaurant, Barney's Restaurant and Bar, seats over 100 GUESTS and offers a delightful choice of traditional South African cuisine. Barney's is renowned for its variety of cocktails and beers - an ideal venue for sundowers or pre-dinner drinks.

As the hotel is part of the Gold Reef City complex, GUESTS have access to all of the facilities - gold mine tours, tribal dancing, can-can dancing, horse and carriage rides, fun fair rides, entertainment, shops, bars and restaurants, as well as the casino and Globe Theatre.
