We have been stopping over at Protea Willow Lake for many years, en route to Eastern Transvaal & Kruger. It has got a little tired and I have been concerned about security since the zoo closed. There is no additional protection and part of the establishment is exposed. The staff were great, although the buffet was always a bit rustic. We decided to try this Protea, which is slightly closer to the N1 and were not disappointed. We stayed for two nights. On the first night we had a great meal and were looked after by a really good host, Rachel, who was both friendly and very competent in her role. The second (return trip) night was not that great. Food & Bev manager pitched up eventually and, to his credit, stepped in, as we weren't the only ones taking strain. Sunday night. Short staffed and meal marginal. However the rooms are clean and well laid out (as with WillowLake) and, even though the area is not that great, the perimeter and security staff give confidence that you won't have any nasty surprises overnight. All in all you can see good staffing and committed management. This is where we will stay from now on. Five stars are in good faith. It is only consistency that keeps that rating, so we will see. All in all a very good experience!

I booked this hotel because of some business I had to do at the university area. This hotel lies exact on the opposite of the entrance, to great succes. the people are very kind and helpfull. The hotel lies on the rim of the city and therefor not a lot of traffic in the area, which can be seen as nice and quite, or abbandonded. For us it was nice and quite. The hotel struggled with her electricity and therefor her wifi. However all of Bloemfontein is struggling with her electricity. So being in Teams calls was not a great succes. The hotel is cheap, clean and well maintained. good chef!! the food is exccellent!!! the breakfast is more than enough

Hotel is close to the city center. The hotel is showing its age, but clean. The rooms are acceptable. The service at dinner was not particularly good. Despite there being only a few people, there was no service. There is a small pool outside.

Confortable, dans la norme Protea. Pour un séjour touristique préférez le Protéa willow lake. Pour la restauration une vraie déception lors de notre séjour : un séminaire avait lieu... donc buffet obligatoire pour le dîner pour tout le monde ! pas de carte des vins proposée. Buffet petit déjeuner très bien.
