The hotel offers a pleasant view of the Orange River while being very close to the main business area. The rooms need maintenance and a good clean, especially those without windows. The service is fantastic, with hospitable receptionists but lacking familiarity with the menu or drinks list. The location is central but frequented by a noisy crowd at times. The dining experience is satisfactory with some accompanying frustrations. Overall, a mix of positive and negative aspects.

Staying at this Protea hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and overlooked the Orange River, but there was an unpleasant drain smell that persisted despite being reported. The service was friendly overall, though there was a hiccup with my Marriot points. The location was central to our plans but had noise issues from guests by the pool. Dining options were overpriced, leading us to seek alternatives. The facilities were mostly adequate, with room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were up to a normal basic standard and very clean, but there was an issue with water leaking from the ceiling which caused a slip on my second last day. The view overlooked a side street car park and the main road.

The hotel's location was central to all the places I wanted to visit, right next to the river in the middle of town. However, it was noisy at times, especially after sunset, with a rowdy crowd near the pool.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room I had offered a beautiful river view but had issues like water leaking from the ceiling, which led to a slip on a puddle one day. I'm not entirely convinced it was thoroughly cleaned for my arrival, despite being spacious.

The hotel is centrally located and offers a pleasant view of the Orange River. The rooms vary in views from overlooking the main road and car park to a view over the Orange River. The service is friendly but lacks consistency, especially by the receptionist. Dining options are available in the hotel but might be overpriced. The facilities are satisfactory overall.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were big, comfortable, and clean, equipped with all necessary amenities, but I encountered a water leakage issue from the ceiling which led to a slip on a puddle near the end of my stay. The service was slow and unfriendly, although they did offer a free night at a very late stage. The location has its perks being central with a pleasant view, but it was marred by noisy guests disrupting the peace. The dining options were top quality with a great variety, although I found the sausages barely cooked. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory.

The hotel offers a mix of clean and great rooms along with some dirty and grubby ones, and though a bit cramped for two people, they were still comfortable. The service was a blend of extremely helpful and amazing staff, despite some lapses in attention and awareness at times. The location, right next to the river and in the middle of town, has its charms but also drawbacks like noise and ventilation issues. The dining options vary from overpriced to top quality and delicious. The facilities are decent overall.
