Protea Hotel Walvis Bay Pelican Bay

Even though I paid and had a confirmation, the hotel said that they had no booking in my name and I was forced to find another accomodation after 30 hours of traveling.

Good stay, enjoyed nice food. Best location of a hotel to be. Very nice beach view and easy to access.

Quality assured! Very clean hotel with picturesque views of the lagoon.

毛巾乾淨，床單較臟，讓housekeeping來換了一套還是有污漬，懷疑他們把床品放在地上整理摺疊？被子巨厚，還很重。 早餐基本的都有，不錯了。洗澡水壓還行，納米普遍水壓較小。 其實酒店位置很好，離餐廳、出海碼頭都很近，步行幾分鐘就到。一樓的房間也很方便跑出去拍火烈鳥。周邊環境也很安靜安全。 就是房間的地毯有一股味道，可能因為海邊濕度高，難免有潮味，換成地板應該會好很多。 員工呢，怎麼説呢，訂項目很起勁，但是貌似很多套路，反正最後我自己定了。最後退房的時候跟我説房費需要結算，我説我明明是付給攜程的，然後前台才説是已經付過了。奇奇怪怪的。 酒店接機250納米幣一個人，送機是出海公司問前台，找的司機，2個人400。

Walvis Bay is not a large town so hotels are not widely available. Nevertheless, given paucity of Hotels, this hotel did rate high on TA reviews. The car I had booked well ahead of time wasn’t there at the Airport. It wasn’t a good feeling to find yourself in a strange country all by yourself. I had to make a few expensive calls, since I had to use my phone which was on roaming, to the hotel. The hotel reception called the driver and had him return to pick me up. This is Africa so getting angry is a waste of time😤. Check in at the hotel was a breeze and this lovely young lady by the name of Kesia, took care of my check in and during my stay. The room was redone (or so I was told) but WiFi was spotty but usable. The room was clean and had a wonderful view of the Bay. The only downer of the room was that water drainage of the shower seemed to be blocked so one had only a limited time to take a shower before the water overflowed into the toilet. I did complain to the Reception but I was leaving after 2 night so I told them to get it done after I’ve left the hotel. Breakfast was very nice but as being Africa, very dependent on beef. Since I don’t eat beef or pork, I’m always stuck with eggs. There was enough of fruits so I always had a very full breakfast on both days. I had dinner on my first night at the hotel and I must say, I enjoyed the lamb chop which was grilled to my liking and was very filling. Overall, a very nice albeit basic hotel (considering where I’ve stayed in) but very nice staff with a special mention to Kesia. She may just be the youngest team member there but always helpful and friendly. I hope the hotel keeps her there since the guests will always be in good hands.

Great location by the Bay. Decent room with good Internet. Price was very good, 1800 NAD per night. Breakfast buffet was good with plenty choice. Staff on reception, Kesia and Velma were very pleasant and helpful. Walvis Bay is a very nice chilled town.

The hotel is not worth the price. Receptionist seems like she is doing you a favour to assist you. The inside of the hotel is losing paint and things are falling off as you touch it. No powdermilk for the coffee and our room key did not work the next day. Bar is very limited and barman can't answer questions. Breakfast was ok. A R35 is charged for room service even for a glass of wine.

This hotel is in an excellent location! Open the door to an amazing view of the water and the smell of the ocean ! The restaurant we only had breakfast and it was good. The staff are very helpful and friendly . The only issue is they seem to have a problem with their water in the bathrooms … they leak :( … they are aware and I believe fixing it .

The location right on the water is the best thing about this hotel, great views and walk to some nice restaurants. Staff were great. Thats the good bit. The hotel was built in 2003 and no maintenance/updating has been done since. So dated, peelling paint, horrible outdated bathrooms, everything worn out and scruffy. Marriot have taken over now so hopefully will spend some serious money and bring it up to date. Breakfast was just about OK , ommelettes made to order were great. We did see some rooms had been updated so maybe they have started.....we did enjoy our stay despite many cosmetic problems
