Marriott International Debuts in DR Congo with Two New Hotels

Marriott International has made its debut in The Democratic Republic of the Congo with the openings of Protea Hotel by Marriott Kinshasa and Four Points by Sheraton Kinshasa.

The launch of these two distinct hotels introduces globally recognised brands to Kinshasa, offering tailored experiences for business and leisure travellers in one of Africa’s most vibrant and strategically important capital cities. 

Set along the Congo River, Kinshasa is a dynamic hub for diplomacy, regional trade, and the arts. The city offers travellers a compelling mix of culture, commerce, and connectivity - from its lively music and culinary scenes to its bustling markets and proximity to Central Africa’s natural wonders.

Both hotels are managed by third-party management company SARV Management LLC.

Protea Hotel by Marriott Kinshasa

Protea Hotel by Marriott Kinshasa offers a unique stay that blends contemporary comfort with authentic local character and personalised service.

Ideally situated in an upscale neighbourhood near the Congo River, the hotel is surrounded by government offices, corporate headquarters, and premium malls, and is just minutes from the city centre.

Its 88 thoughtfully designed guest rooms — many with balconies and scenic views — are tailored to meet the needs of today’s business, diplomatic, and leisure travellers, providing a welcoming base from which to explore Kinshasa.

The hotel’s bright atrium lobby brings together natural light, local artwork, and greenery, offering a welcoming space that pays tribute to the building’s former life as a school. Within this space sits the hotel’s signature indoor pool, a first of its kind in the city, offering a serene retreat after a busy day.

Guests can dine at Marché 15, an all-day restaurant celebrating international and local flavours, or unwind at the Lobby Bar, a relaxed space ideal for informal meetings and evening drinks.

Additional amenities include a well-equipped fitness centre, and a 56-square-metre conference room designed for small meetings and private gatherings.

Four Points by Sheraton Kinshasa

Located in the heart of Kinshasa’s central business district, Four Points by Sheraton Kinshasa offers 134 modern guest rooms. Whether travellers are visiting Kinshasa for work or fun, the hotel caters to their needs with its approachable design, and stylish comfort.

Reflecting the brand’s signature style, the hotel offers today’s independent travellers the Four Comfort Bed, fast and free Wi-Fi, and an energising start to the day with fresh coffee and breakfast options.

After a productive day, guests can unwind over a meal at Lufira Restaurant, sip a signature cocktail at the stylish 83 Sky Lounge Bar, or enjoy a refreshing local beer on tap through the brand’s Best Brews™ programme.

Additional amenities include a 24-hour fitness centre, and a rooftop outdoor pool with panoramic city views. Four Points by Sheraton Kinshasa also boasts approximately 230 square metres of meeting space across four rooms, each equipped with modern conference facilities and advanced audiovisual technology, making it a prime venue for corporate meetings, workshops, and social events.
