Staff are all super friendly and helpful and I enjoyed the stay, my room was clean and big enough, I... More

I've stayed at this hotel multiple times, most recently in December, 2012. I have to say I've been really impressed with the property each time I've stayed there. First, the property is very clean- their staff do a nice job keeping things looking nice. Also, as others have said the staff is very friendly. Once or twice we have asked... More

We needed accommodation for 7 people on relatively short notice and got 4 rooms at the Protea Hotel in Nelspruit. Having had very noisy rooms at the last Protea Hotel in Clarens we looked up the reviews and based on the write-ups asked for more quiet rooms. Our request was met 1/2 way by getting 2 street and 2 yard... More

I was happily surprised when I entered this hotel... the staff are exceptionally friendly and courteous. The rooms are clean, the quality of the food was way more decent than expected, with limited options of known Hotels... this was most definitely a worthwhile stay and will definitely be back.. the only downfall of this hotel is the noise from being...

The Protea Nelspruit is a more up-market hotel with nice rooms and furnishings. The beds are very comfortable. The stand-out was the quality of the meals. Excellent. Staff are attentive and friendly. A good spot to stay to explore this part of the Lowveld or even a short trip into Mozambique.
