    Very good

    Conveniently situated.

    the cleaners are noisy in the mornings. The food at the restaurant was horrible compared to other similar type of hotels I've been to.

    I honestly cannot say that there was one thing that I enjoyed during my stay, it was a pretty below-par experience for a Protea Hotel.

    Only one vending machine in the entire hotel, which was not in working order! The receptionist at the time was also very unfriendly, and did not make any effort to resolve the vending machine issue. Also no mini-bar in my room, so I had to drink tap water throughout the evening.

    Very good

    We enjoyed the convenience and proximity it offered to our dance venue. Our room was functional and clean and provided us with all we needed. Thank-you.

    We opted out of the breakfast, as we dont eat big breakfasts and the price was a little too hefty for us. But if there was a smaller menu we would have considered it, eg a cafe style menu.

    Clean comfortable convenient.

    Does not have a proper bar. Hence one would leave the hotel to go for a few drinks.

    Everything, I stay at this hotel whenever I go to Bloemfontein and they are my family and friends away from home. Just love them and the hotel, especially the rooms, I love to bath and hate to shower so the bath is great. The food is excellent too.

    Nothing to say
