We stayed at this hotel for 13 nights this month. On the whole we were very impressed with it. We had a beautiful room with a very modern shower. We liked having the tea and coffee making facilities and a fridge in the room. The downside were that the majority of the reception staff seemed very surly. They struggled to... More

Stayed at this hotel as part of a Kulula holiday package, booked for Ironman South Africa 2012. The hotel has been recently renovated, and is in great condition. My room was ready ahead of schedule, and was spacious and airy, even though I chose the non-sea facing option. I was impressed by their effort to "go green" with LED down-lights... More

This is a great find. Beautifully renovated hotel, on the beach with excellent breakfast. The room was large and comfortable. There was free internet for up to 200 mg. It is across the street from the magnificent beach. There is a lovely restaurant next door with good food. More

We stayed in this hotel during April 2011 for one night only. We were very impressed with the hotel, it is just accross the road from the beach and sea, and the rooms have beautiful views. We booked a family room for two adults and our two teenagers. This was a very nice room, had two bedrooms, one with king... More

We stayed at the Protea Hotel Marina in Port Elizabeth 2 weeks ago. This hotel has been renovated in the last couple of years and the result more then visible. The location just a minute away from some nightlife and at the beach site are a big plus. The public rooms, bars and reception are very modern and up to... More

I often stay at the hotel on business and was pleasently surprised with the recent refurbishment of the hotel. My room was a good size and I had a lovely view over the ocean. As PE is so small, it was convenient to get from my hotel to all my business appointments. I had room service dinner and breakfast and... More

Protea Hotel Marine is across the street from the beach;our room on the 7th floor had a view of the pretty neighborhood behind the hotel. The room was clean and comfortable with all the amenities including a refrigerator. A grocery, casino and shopping mall nearby. The only downside was the erratic water temp in the shower. The staff friendly and... More

Located close to the beach. Across the road is a broad patch of green grass & then the beach. Rooms have an amazing view of the beach & Indian Ocean. Recently renovated after FIFA 2010 in July. Many football teams had stayed here. We stayed on a family trip. One of us had a room with great sea view, however;... More

This hotel has nice rooms which appear to have been refurbished recently. Unfortunately we had too many service issues to really enjoy our stay. Our key was not encoded at check in so we had to go back to front desk - no apologies. The service in the restaurant was terrible so I would recommend avoiding that too. It's a... More
