Roads in and around are full of potholes

Position and view

Stayed in August 2025

Hotel is quite far from Centre of city and shopping areas. TV in the room shows only two channels. These where only advertises.

The area was nice, very close to the Beach. Excellent Restaurants nearby, Hotel personal was very helpful. Internet is free and good spped.

One area for improvement would be the breakfast buffet—while adequate, some dishes, particularly the mushrooms, could have been better prepared.

Overall, my stay at Protea Hotel by Marriott Walvis Bay Pelican Bay was pleasant. The staff were friendly and communicated well, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The location was also convenient, with restaurants nearby.

There was no running water at all in the room on the first evening. Didn't find out until I undressed and got in the shower after being out for a run. A notice in the lobby about this would have helped.

Beautiful location on the lagoon. Handy too for boat trips. Comfy bed; very friendly staff; good wi-fi; nice food at breakfast and evening meal. Taxi service from airport (Bongani Shuttle) was excellent.

Restaurant manager not willing to smile or to answer if you said good morning… Wondering if she is underpaid compared to her nice colleagues.

Front desk managers very helpfull. Nice sea views from all rooms. Good breakfast buffet.

A pool facility would be nice. The shower spills a lot of water on the floor. The coffee served in the rooms could be better

The breakfast was good. location is perfect. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Stayed in January 2025

The facilities are poor and not well maintained. One would say perhaps it deteriorating. The towels are too old, hard and dry. Our bathroom had a leak they couldn’t fix. The breakfast leaves a lot to be desired. The quality and variety could be improved. The WiFi was poor, inadequate tv channels. You should consider upgrading to smart TVs and perhaps invest in a swimming pool.

The location is good

The breakfast buffet was excellent and varied. We enjoyed it every day. It was nicely set up, and pleasant to eat in the dining room.

The fact that there was construction work going on in the hotel should have been communicated to us before arrival. Whether it would have resulted in booking elsewhere is up for debate, but we were not made aware

Breakfast was good. Location is fantastic.

Stayed in August 2024

The rooms and hotel in general is quite old, so there were limited facilities. The breakfast was also repetitive, which is not ideal for those who are there for a longer stay.

The hotel was well situated in Walvis Bay, with a lovely pier allowing you to watch the sunset towards the evening. The rooms were of good size, and the hotel breakfast was of good quality.

The hotel needs refurbishment

Great location. Friendly service from staff in general and particularly, Kesia in reception. She was extremely helpful in helping with various needs.

Stayed in May 2024

Was initially given the wrong room. Was told we can only move into the correct room the next day once it becomes available. The first room had mold around the bath tub. There was also a spiderweb in the corner of the room with many insects caught inside it. There were stains on the bedsheet. However, once we moved into the correct room, it was cleaner and pleasant.

Great location on the lagoon, and walking distance to the waterfront.
