Fire and Ice Hotel on "Fire".
After confirming 3 times that I wanted 2 rooms next to one another or closeby, I was still given the opposite. It was only corrected the next day which was rather inconvenient. Besides that inconvenience I found the staff extremely friendly and helpful. The Hotel was spotless at all times. We had three light meals at the hotel and really enjoyed them tremendously. Compliments to the chef! The sweetie jar at reception was also a winner. Everyday something else.

My stay is generally okay for anyone who will spend most of their time outdoors.The rooms are small though well designed with a flat screeen tv,fridge and hot kettle.The shower was great! The beds were comfortable but the pillows were terrible.They also do not have iron boxes incase you need one. It’s ideal for adventurous and younger individuals/couples I also didn’t like that they didn’t have curtains so sleeping past 5 am is impossible as the light comes right through! The location is great in a quiet place

While all other aspects of the hotel is perfect sevice, food etc, the actual hotel isnt built propperly for noise cancellation. With a night club just across the road this is obvious.

The property was not understanding about an unintentional double booking that was caught within 24 hours of purchase and several weeks prior to the stay. Even the request to not refund but convert to a credit at the property was denied. I will stay somewhere else

The food was great. There was a variety to choose from at every meal. I didn't know about load shearing Until a cab driver told me. I just thought we were experiencing something temporary. Didn't know all of south Africa was experiencing the same thing.

Solo Traveller - Frequent CT visitor
My seconded stay a Protea F&I but a much lesser experience than first time out. My room was above the nightclub. I'd no fridge on this occasion. The water in Cistern had a constant trickle, albeit maintenance were quick to address once raised, however it reoccurred. The shower temperature control was non existant and risk being scalded. I'm a relatively easy customer and can put up with most if not all of the above, but the biggest frustration was no one answering the phone at reception for 15+ minutes (at 6pm looking for room service), so i eventually got up and left the hotel to spend my money in resturant nearby. I also ordered food late at night (Burger menu only) and asked for small salad in liue of chips only to be told it wasn't possible. I wasn't asking for roast potatoes.... just some salad that was already on the burger anyway. Baffling. As such, I found the reception and restaurant service poor this time out. The bar staff and cleaners were good. I'm good to tip, and the staff that went the ectra mile were tipped accordingly but some were very inflexible and lackadaisical. The location is great but on fence if I'd stsy again.

Nice hotel,great location. Nice trimmings (biscuits, water, hot choclate etc at reception). Wifi was excellent. Breakfast station needs refinement. The queue for eggs takes far too long and they should just have an egg pot rather than queuing at ommlette station. The staff are way to quick to clear away perfectly good food, even if you've only popped to buffet station (as a solo traveller Id no one to mind my table and left my glasses on it, but they still cleared the lot!). Its just wasteful and lacked common sense. Otherwise, a lovely stay and Ill stay again.
