2/10 Poor
27 September 2024
Rooms were okay, but service was poor. Housekeeping only cleaned the room once. Didnt sweep the floor or clean the cups glasses. Only left 2 towels, whilst the room was a double room housing 4 people.
While dining at the reataurant, the chicken was still raw when served. That after we waited more than an hour for our food, without any indication from the waiters that there will be delays. At check out the staff member had the nerve to acuse me of not paying my restaurant bill, which was not true as I paid the bill after dining even though the kids were served raw chicken.
This speaks to the overall poor management of the facility. I will not stay at this establishment again and will not recommend it to anyone. Very disappointed.

The staff were very hospitable and helpful. However, the toilet flush did not work in one room and my daughter got locked in the toilet in the general area for 40 minutes due to a faulty lock.

Best Big Hole location
Lovely hotel in best location in Kimberley - literally next door to the Big Hole, with its own pathway. Staff were very helpful. Room and hotel were tastefully decorated to fit into mining theme.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Protea Hotel Kimberley, situated next to the famous Big Hole in Kimberley, South Africa.
The hotel itself was everything I could have hoped for - comfortable and spacious rooms and stunning views of the Big Hole. The restaurant offered a delicious range of meals, while the bar was the perfect place to unwind with a refreshing drink.
The hotel's location was the real highlight of the stay. The hotel has direct access to the Big Hole historical area through a small gate The museum, exhibitions, and viewing platform all provided a fascinating insight into the history of the mine.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Protea Hotel Kimberley to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient base from which to explore the area's rich cultural heritage.
