Beautiful Hotel + set-up. Probably the most beautiful hotel ever stayed in. Staff are very friendly. You do not have the feel of living in a normal hotel, you really feel as living in the jungle...great experiance + athmosphere. From the viewing point we could spot elephants, hippos and many other animals. Dinner is a good buffet which is included in the price. Walking distance to Kruger Gate. Spa threathements unprofessional. My girlfriend did a facial + pedicure but were not properly done. It was more like a massage then a threathement!!! When booking SPA threatments the guy at the office had no idea regarding spa threatments. When booking tours, not much information is given so we had to choose randomly (and got very lucky!!)

The location was superb and the dinners were very good and overall all the staff we encountered were friendly. The maintenance at the hotel is totally unacceptable. Our airconditioner did not work and after being told by David (maintenance handyman) that it would be fixed the following day as it needed gas, it still was not repaired. I also reported it to the front desk on the Thursday morning - they did adjust my accommodation for that night - but it was a huge nuisance as we had to move rooms at 21:00 and my son was already sleeping. The bar also ran out of stock. I believe that this hotel is not up to four star standard - for the price I was paying I expected alot more.

The food was excellent; the staff was courteous; the location was absolutely fabulous... The design & decor was downright ridiculous. For that price, I expected so much better. The hotel is old and feels dingy and could do with a renovation. It must be the humidity because everything felt damp.

The Hotel is located directly at the Kruger Gate, which makes it unique. The hotel is prepared to host tourist groups also arriving with bus tours. The service is very professional. The hotel was faced with power failures. Unfortunately, no handlight was avaliable. We understood from other tourists that this had happened the days before, too. There are so many tourists coming and going that no private atmosphere arose.

Protea Hotel is very well integrated in the landscape and ensures that the guests feel that are in the middle of the wild life of Kruger Park. The wi-fi was not available. The rooms were ok but our expectations were higher basing on the photos.

Friendly staff and beautiful scenery. Air conditioning in our room didn't work (Room 256). We arrived to a room -with only one small towel and one bath towel even though we booked it for 2 adults and 2 children. Complained at reception where after we only received one more bath towel?? Restaurant struggled to handle the large amount of guests for dinner. We were busy with dessert before they cleared any plates off the table.

The hospitality and the attention you are given by the entire staff. When you bbok for the game drive in the park the hotel charges r60 P.P. for making such a booking without notifying us.

Le Spa en quasi plein air est très agréable, comme les repas du soir pris dans le lapa. Les parties communes sont luxueuses avec un style de construction local. La chambre au rez-de-chaussée que nous avions était très sombre. L'équipement de la salle de bain est ancien (fuite dans les sanitaires). La piscine est très petite.

Lage am Rande des Krügerparks. Sehr geschmackvolle, gemütliche Anlage - leider zum Teil etwas abgewohnt. Personal war zum Teil sehr bemüht und freundlich, zum Teil aber auch lasch und langsam - endlose Wartezeiten auf Snacks und Getränke...

Connaissant et utilisant la chaîne Protea en Afrique du Sud, j'en use très régulièrement. Kruger Gate a un emplacement idéal si l'on ne veut pas séjourner dans le parc Kruger. J'y suis venue une première fois il y a plus de 10 ans, le service et l'accueil y étaient chaleureux et professionnel. Cette année, régnait une ambiance tendue et revendicatrice. Pas agréable d'y être accueilli par des manifestants et des calicots.. Au desk, attitudes hautaines et nonchalantes. J'espère que le manager y mettra bon ordre !

Bellissima la struttura. In particolare il ristorante con tanto di fuoco centrale in stile accampamento e I punti di osservazione del parco. Ottima la posizione, proprio alle porte del Kruger park. Non risulta essere propriamente economico.

Der höfliche und nette Service aller Mitarbeiter. Bei Frühstück und Abendessen haben alle versucht, ihre Deutschkenntnisse anzubringen.
