Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently appreciate the Protea Hotel's proximity to the airport and the efficient, complimentary shuttle service. The airplane/airport theme is a distinctive touch, with a taxiway painted on the floor. Rooms are generally well-soundproofed, though some guests in airport-facing rooms have noticed noise, but offer comfortable beds. The ground floor bar is considered a nice area, and the hotel features a well-equipped gym and an outdoor pool in the gardens.

The staff was attentive and the facilities were clean. I found the bed very comfortable. I slept well. The on-site restaurant offered generous meal portions and I enjoyed the recommendations. The shuttle service was prompt and efficient.
The room I had faced the airport and experienced some noise. It was constant from both the airport and road, I would request a room away from the airport.
