Protea Hotel Bloemfontein Willow Lake Reviews

Pleasant stay in a clean and tidy room. Front desk service is great! Great location

Wonderful staff. Clean rooms. Quiet facility. We loved staying at this hotel and would recommend it to others!

Clean and comfortable, transportation

Overall good!

The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious and well appointed. The location in Bloemfontein was close to amenities and in a lovely area. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant and the ambience was great. Loved the peacocks in the courtyard outside.

Probably one of the worst hotels I have stayed in. Service was terrible. Staff were lazy and slow. Restaurant staff seemed completely disinterested and not willing to assist. Nothing worked. Noisy. Overall a very disappointing experience

Good quality business hotel. Very clean overall, attractive decor, good lighting. But no bar fridge in room, and small desk. There is a small boardroom on the first floor. Rooms small and rather a squash for two people. Bathroom part of the room itself with separate, private toilet. Breakfast above average. Service overall a bit slow. Location very good for CBD and SCA. Reasonably priced. R1800 per night per room, breakfast an extra R215 pp.

We stayed here one night during our drive from George to Johannesburg. The hotel is great with a lovely garden and pool area. The breakfast was great, the buffet dinner was fine). Parking is behind a secured gate with a guard at the entry/exit point as well. Quiet at night, no elevators.

We stay here every time we come to Bloem. Nice accommodations, decent breakfast, and very friendly staff. Also very close to two of our favorite malls in town - Mimosa and Loch Logan. The rooms could use an update, including the addition of TVs that can screen cast or play streaming services, but overall has a nice, quaint feel.

The hotel room was nice, clean with all you might need. The hotel itself also was clean and well maintained. Bar staff was a bit surprised their job is to cater customers :-) Though breakfast staff was very hospitable and nice. Real downside was the pool not well maintained exhibiting also a dead frog.

Wanted to like this place but out of the 150+ nights at Marriott properties this year this place has got to be the worse. Small rooms with the shower part of the room two feet from where your head is on your bed. Poor design and water leaks all over your room. Poor slow wifi, A/C did not work, paper thin walls you can hear everything and can not sleep, ratty old towels, horrible breakfast, no elevator and need to lug your bags up two flights of stairs, smallest room I have had in years, zero recognition of my Elite status, we went there for my two year old to see the animals and they took them all away but still advertise this. You can see many nice photos of the animals on the property. Call the front desk and they don't answer the phone after five plus minutes of ringing. Looked for a lake and saw nothing, crappy area. Asked to speak to a manger but they guy was busy in the toilet for more time than I wanted to wait. Was hooping for a good stay but good not get away from this property fast enough. If you are looking for as comfortable stay and a nice clean, quite nice sleep, Don't Come Here!!!!!!
