Protea Hotel Ndola

Nice Hotel in Ndola.

Returned to the Protea for the first time post COVID. Kudos to the staff for excellent service, professionalism and friendliness. Always available to happily attend to your needs the hotel definitely deserves and 11/10 for their staff. The rooms were clean, airy and spacious (spacious showers you could easily fit two). I would have thought they would offer more television channels than the few they gave but then again I am not one to spend too much time on screen. The lack of air conditioning in the restaurant and reception area meant on really hot days it was quite uncomfortable to relax there. The food in general was ok, nothing to shout about, but the Chef did make a special dish on one of the nights (but that has its own review). Altogether probably the most comfortable accommodation you will get in Ndola and quite honestly the best staff by far. 3 stars due to the food being average and inconsistent, but there are two or three great Indian restaurants nearby.

We’ve stayed at a few Proteas around southern Africa and the Ndola branch definitely ranks among the top. The entire hotel complex has a modern, airy style, with a small but nice pool area at the back. Rooms are spacious with all expected amenites. Being a family of four we had two rooms with an interleading door - perfect for us. Breakfast had pretty much everything you can ask far. Wifi was good throughout the premises. Staff generally kind and helpful. Top notch!

The hotel was clean, good facilities and very well-trained staff who were attentive but not intrusive in any way. The rooms were comfortable and clean with good facilities. The dining experience was of a high quality. I would certainly stay again.

The staff was so kind and friendly. We had a wonderful stay.
