    The hotel is very conveniently located near lots of restaurants and shopping centres. The beach is in walking distance, though about 1 I'm away. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and included a small Kitchenet with microwave which made it convenient to keep and prepare snacks. We had a problem with the air conditioner dripping […] water which couldn't be fixed after multiple maintenance visits. Read more

    We stayed at this hotel for five nights. We had a few issues with a fridge which took three requests to fix/exchange. Noisy guests and bathroom plumbing and an early morning call that woke us but we had not requested. The hotel did redeem itself somewhat on the last day allowing us to check out late in the afternoon to tie in with an onward flight.

    A fantastic location close to the beach and local shops and restaurants. On site parking at an additional small fee per night. Clean, smart comfortable room - nothing fancy but very spacious and comfortable. Staff very friendly and helpful. Rooftop pool small but very clean and refreshing.

    I can't speak highly enough of this hotel.It's 5 minutes walk from the beach and right next to all the bars and restaurants.The room was big and cool and quiet and had a microwave and a fridge.The bed was big and comfortable. The breakfast (which was not included in my deal) is way overpriced at 130 Rand,as you can get a good breakfast outside for 35 […] Rand.I was also dissappointed that checkout was 10am,far too early,but they gave me a free late check out,so we'll forget about that.I've stayed in 26 hotels throughout the world this year through work,and this one was the BEST !!

    The rooms are big and spacious and have at least one socket for English or European plugs (well the rooms I had did) The staff are SO friendly and when my case was missing the staff couldn't do enough to help me locate it. Roof top swimming pool is tiny (3 strokes and you have done a length) but with the beach and the Indian Ocean being just a 5 minute […] walk who cares. Overall a great stay there, so much so I went back for the last 3 days of my holiday. Thanks Protea Hotel! Read more

    We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The stuff was very friendly and helpful. Close to restaurants and shops. But we had to move and change rooms for quite a number of times due to either a room did not have a microwave/fridge and standard room with twin bed supplied instead of queen size bed. But we must say, as soon as the room that suits our need […] was available, the movement was hassle-free. We would definately make another stay at this hotel in future. Read more

    I'd recommend this hotel based on its location and value. It is set in a safe, vibrant neighbourhood and is an easy 7 minute walk to the seafront promenade. It is much better value than some of the pricier hotels located on the seafront (only 1 block away) yet also has a great sea view. The service was great, the family room large and comfortable, […] and the rooftop swimming pool a fun, but small, feature. One downside is the lack of balcony or room service. However, across the road you'll find a selection of varied restaurants and a Woolworths (like Marks and Sparks) where you could pick up a takeaway in lieu of room service. However, the neighbourhood is so nice and family friendly that you'll probably opt to eat out! We enjoyed our stay so much that we returned for another stay during our holiday. Also very well located for easy access to King Shaka airport. Read more

    Om man ska til Durban ä Umhlanga klart bättre att bo i. Man kan gå ute efter mörkrets inbrott, många trevliga restauranger och en fantastisk starndpromenad. Protea är klart prisvärt jämfört med turist-hotellen längs stranden
