Super Lage zum Flughafen!
Alles ansonsten gut!
Hotel davvero bello a tema aeroporto. Tutto molto curato, anche la cena a buffet era davvero buona. Personale molto gentile. Comodo con la navetta gratuita e puntata da e per l'aeroporto.
Convenience to airport.
Open bathroom In bedroom.
Comodo per aeroporto e partenza tour per Safari
Stanza un po' piccola e con poca illuminazione
Shuttle to airport exactly on time. Friendly and supportive staff Room sufficient for the need of accommodation did not have breakfast Airport 5mintute drive which is very nearby.
Nothing negative
It was ok
Portions too large, smaller portions not available
The Hotel is conveniently situated near OR Tambo Int. Airport for a stopover night. The service and food were very good.
The room was a little bit cramped, but ok for one night. The shower was very slippery and could be dangerous.
Room was not clean , not toilet brush in bathroom , TV not working , hairdryer not working shower dirty , bed configuration not correct
It is what it is, i.e. an airport hotel which most people will use for only one night and, as such, is fine. The room was quite small and storage limited, but 'fit for purpose'. Similarly, the food in the restaurant was okay. Importantly, the bed was comfortable, there was a good supply of hot water and the air conditioning/heatering unit worked well.
The shuttle bus service that the hotel provides is obviously an important feature and selling point for the hotel. The fact that seats cannot be booked in advance - there was a concern that there might be more people than seats - made us a little anxious. I suggest the hotel give this some thought.
conveniently located near the airport. Clean hotel airport. Nothing exceptional
Good bar and food, very well equipped gym, interesting decor throughout, excellent free airport shuttle both ways..
Nothing
Clean and staff were very attentive
The overhead lights in the bedroom were very bright
The room was very comfortable and had what was required for a short stay.
The shower was disappointing - no water pressure - water was trickeling from the showerhead
This worked well for us to catch our early morning flight
My room had a bit of a bad smell, which disappeared once I opened the window. The floor was badly damaged in front of the window between the bed.
Location and friendly staff
The walls are so thin we could hear the person next door loud and clear including his wakeup call that went on for 15 minutes with loud music from the radio.
Close proximity to the airport and the shuttle service is great.
The cleanliness was below what I’d expected.
The hotel is close to the airport, which was very convenient for us as we had a connecting flight the following morning. The airport shuttle service worked perfectly and made our stay even more convenient. We would definitely consider staying here again.
None
We had a lovely stay at the Protea Hotel! The room was comfortable, the service was great, and it was a fantastic option for an airport hotel. The breakfast buffet was absolutely beautiful with a great selection, and very reasonably priced. A really convenient and enjoyable stay — we would happily stay here again!
Clean and close to the airport
The food could use some improvement
Close to Airport
Food ((Steak) , wrong bill, unfriendly staff
I didn't like the two single beds
Close to the airport, staff is very friendly and the rooms are very clean and bed comfortable. Convenient shuttle
The worst hotel we have ever experienced. Reservations totally uncommunicative when corespondents with flight delay
Reception when checking in at 2am after sending an email to advise our flight from Nairobi had been delayed by over 1 hour. Asked for a latter check out because our flight back to Australia was in the afternoon. Advised 11am was the best they could do we an extra cost of 600 rand. Reception staff the most rude and disrespectful ever experienced no empathy with our situation. Went to the Intercontinental which meet all our needs and expectations.
The reception staffs were really helpful. Katlego gave us a warm welcome and helped in exchanging currency. The absolute bonus is their shuttle service to and from airport at every half n hour and can be used by the guests as and when required. The theme of the restaurant and the room are very interesting, everything has a touch of aviation theme. The restaurant is also very modern with good food options on the menu. I personally liked the Oxtail from the menu. Portion size is good. Rooms are decent side with work table alongside and electricity plug points. The bed was good for a comfortable sleep. The gym at the property is also well maintained and good for 1-2 days workout for proper cardio and resistance training. They have a good pool too, but we didn't use it.
Constant humming sound from the airport, though you will get used to it. The dinner buffet might seem value for money, but the food on offer was not that great. I would suggest going for their a la carte options. No temperature control in the swimming pool.
Perfekt als Zwischenübernachtung, da nah am Terminal und zuverlässiger kostenfreier Shuttle alle 30 Minuten. Das Hotel ist sehr sauber, alle Mitarbeiter sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend und ein sehr gutes Frühstück mit allem, was man sich wünscht. Ein Late Check Out ist gegen eine Gebühr bis 18 Ihr von ca. 30€ möglich und damit sehr fair bepreist (unser Flieger ging erst am Abend). Auch die Lobby und die Bar ist für so ein großes Hotel sehr ansprechend designt und man kann sich wirklich wohlfühlen. Klare Empfehlung!
Servizio navetta da e per l'aeroporto molto efficiente.
Il bagno senza ventilazione e senza scopettone!
Alles sehr zufriedenstellend! Das Buffet am Abend kann man nur empfehlen!
Uns hat alles gefallen!
La posizione vicino all'aeroporto, quindi comoda per il viaggio e comoda perché i tour safari facevano il pickup dei clienti oltre che in aeroporto anche negli alberghi vicini ad esso. La possibilità di fare pranzo e cena a buffet (e la sera anche á la carte). Buona colazione
A me non piace non avere la doccia in un ambiente separato dallo spazio in cui si dorme: si appannano i vetri e gli specchi in camera e lenzuola possono inumidirsi. Sarebbe bene che in una stanza doppia ci fossero due mobili per le valigie (ma questo, purtroppo, è un problema in moltissimi albergh).
Convenient for an overnight layover.
The rooms are not soundproof
I was very stressed driving here at 11 at night it said 400 m from airport but it was 12-15 minutes drive and it stressed me out
I wanted to order food and something to drink but the staff was ONE , and the food I wanted to order was not there ? took me over an hour to get 2 drinks
The art works and design of the hotel . Very detailed
Servizio navetta per l’aeroporto, arredamento zona ristorante
Camera un po’ piccola poca scelta cibo a colazione e nella cena buffet
The Waterfront location
Poor service . Very ordinary restaurant options Poor communication about what was available in the Hotel
Rooms are very noisy
The staff is very friendly and very professional. Room service has a great selection of food. The bed was extremely comfortable and was able to rest.
The shuttle driver did not seem interested in helping when I needed a lift from the airport to the hotel. He was friendly afterwards when he dropped me off at the hotel.
Hotel avec navette pour l'aéroport gratuit, un service indispensable quand on a un vol tard dans la nuit ou tôt le matin! Au top.

Prima Unterkunft am Flughafen. Alles Notwendige vorhanden, sauber und sicher. Sehr freundliches Personal. Gemütliches Restaurant mit gutem Service und leckerem Angebot. Shuttle-Service hat perfekt funktuoniert.
Location, bad area
I did enjoy my stay at Protea. I will come back soon. Thank you for your continued hospitality.
More variety on cereals for breakfast,like maltabella porridge, I was looking forward to enjoying it, otherwise I was happy with everything. Thank you.
Convenient for the airport
Not much soundproofing
Good food
I booked 2 rooms with King size beds but got only 1
Free shuttle to and from airport every 30mins. Very accessible. Staff and service was friendly and efficient.
Hotel room was on the older side but clean and tidy
ubicació
La separació entre dormitori i dutxa és simplement una cortina.... molt pobre per un hotel de 4 estrelles
Great breakfast, proximity to airport. Good shuttle bus service.

Breakfast amazing. Location to airport
Super lokalizacja dobry standard
The airport shuttle is on time every 30 minutes, which is the main reason we booked this hotel. Very nice room -- but a rather odd arrangement with the shower and sink in the room behind a curtain, with a separate toilet. Clean and very comfortable. The staff were wonderful very helpful and friendly. Food in the restaurant was great, but huge portions! Highly recommended as an airport stopover.
There isn't much around the hotel -- i.e. shops and restaurants within easy walking distance.
Os funcionários foram muito prestativos

Makkelijke airport shuttle. Vriendelijk personeel. In het restaurant vind je lekker eten.
Apparatuur op de kamer (koelkast) is wat rumoerig.
Goed hotel dicht bij vliegveld met vriendelijk personeel en lekker ontbijt
Praticidade para quem tem pouco tempo em Joanesburgo.
Gostei de tudo!
The staff were amazing and extremely friendly. The room was beautiful and very comfortable. I love the aviation themes.
Everything was great
Conveniently located near the airport so a great choice if transiting and you need some rest. Easily accessible too, as the hotel offers a complimentary bus shuttle, very much appreciated after a long flight. The overall service was excellent. I had requested a quiet room, the one i got initially was very noisy but as soon as I let staff know they were happy to accommodate the requested change. Breakfast buffet offered many options. Most importantly though, all staff members were professional, polite and happy to assist.
Dichtbij de luchthaven. Goede busverbinding
Beetje sleets hotel en lawaaierig
Good location close to the airport. Comfortable room. The restaurant was good, nice steaks cooked just right. The breakfast was good with plenty of choices for both hot and cold food.
A small thing but the bar only had one bottle of Castle beer. There was a fridge full of Budweiser and lots of other foreign stuff. If I am in South Africa l would rather drink the local brew,
Outside view
The cleanliness was not prioritized.Second floor there were dishes outside the room till morning ,The food was not nice .The staff takes forever to attend you when you need drinks .
Super hôtel, très bien situé, à proximité de l’aéroport, avec en prime une jolie vue sur les avions. La décoration est soignée et élégante, les chambres sont impeccables, confortables et très joliment décorées. Le restaurant est très animé, ce qui crée une ambiance chaleureuse et conviviale, et la carte est vraiment complète. Et surtout, gros plus : la navette gratuite pour l’aéroport, disponible toutes les 30 minutes. Franchement, une très belle surprise ! Une adresse que je recommande sans hésiter.
Very convenient as close to airport
Nothing significant
la personalizzazione a teme aviazione dell'hotel
Ho aspettato la navetta per più di una ora perchè le scritte protea sono solo sul lato destro e dietro al mezzo. E sono piccole. Tutti gli altri hotel hanno navette molto ben visibili e brandizzate dovunque,
Services, proche de l'aéroport, navette mise en place, salle de sport
Fenêtre cassée dans les 2 chambres qui nous ont été donnés

Shuttle to and from airport. The staff, the food and amazing airport styled decor.
The funny shower set up in the rooms. Separate loo, but shower is separated from sleeping area by a curtain only. Apart from that, all great.
I did not like the shower This week we will stay somewhere else The price for a small room was to expensive
That the bathroom was part of the room with only a cutain for privacy I did not like it
Such a clean and comfortable hotel.The best part is that room service is available 24/7, which makes the stay more convenient.Highly recommended!

I had a good alone time
room was comfortable and bed very comfortable and clean. the rest standard. staff was ok. location ok. otherwise the rest quite basic standard. food was ok.
rooms very small. and bathroom could be separate to the room for the price.
The airport pick-up and drop-off were very efficient.
Friendly staff
Thandazo at the front desk went above and beyond to help us. What a star!!! Give that young lady some credit for sure.
Camere molto belle e dotate di tutti i confort, ben insonorizzate e con lo spazio per aprire le valigie. Anche la cena al ristorante è stata ottima, posizione comoda per aeroporto e parcheggio incluso.
