I helped facilitate a conference at the Protea and felt lucky to be given a suite for 5 days. The room was nice and quite. Unfortunately it was Wintertime and the hotel was not well insulated so I never got my room to a good temperature. Additionally, I had to walk out side to go to all meals in the... More

My wife and I stayed here for 2 days prior to our South Africa Tour. Hotel manager was very helpful with suggestions for transportation to tourist sites - Tourists are not recommended to take taxis, busses or trains in the Johanesberg area. Best to get a tour company - very expensive- instead. Most of the places that we went to... More

The hotel is a quite nice property, with view to a lake and next to Centurion Mall, with many restaurant options. I arrived early to the hotel, since my flight was a very early one. the hotel staff ensured me that I could have an early check in, even if I did not let them know beforehand. It took them... More

Stayed in Protea Waterfront for a week in October 2011. I had a self catering apartment, which means you have a comfortable living room, nice bedroom. Not too much should you want to cook for yourself as the kitchen utilities are limited to microwave and tea kettle. Rooms were very clean, the hotel has a restaurant as well as decent... More

This is a really nice hotel - and we found a great special on Hotels.com. It is 2 minutes walking distance from the mall, where there are great restaurants and entertainment. (no need to drink and drive :) We were really pleased with the service and the rooms were very nice. They are currently working on the lake and the... More

I stayed at the Protea Hotel Waterfront in Centurion for three nights in August straddling the weekend. The hotel is conveniently located near the train station, the Centurion mall and the Waterfront. Unfortunately the water front has silted up and is essentially dry and excavators/trucks are removing the silt. This is nothing to do with the hotel, its just an... More

For those whom are staying in Centurion the hotel is ok... if you can Sandton is much better area with almost same hotel prices and much better services Well. For me the hotel was average, not very clean, smelly, Hotel staff tries to help whenever possible but still they will have a lot to catch up with. Breakfast is ok,... More

Standards are slipping here. Service levels are incompatible with price levels (i.e. no soap or shampoo in the rooms) and staff is unfriendly. Would recommend any small scale guesthouse when staying in Centurion as a more comfortable alternative. More

I spent one night in this hotel while in transit from Malawi and had to wait for the connecting flight on the next day.
