Protea Hotel by Marriott Walvis Bay Pelican Bay

The staff at the reception were so welcoming and adviced us on the activities and they made bookings for the activities which we liked. They called the taxi for us whenever we needed to go out. I totally love the reception staff their smiles and willingness to go the extra mile for their guests can't go unnoticed and deserves the recognition. The location of the hotel is breathtaking and brings peace of mind. I mean the lagoon and waterfront are just a stone throw away. All rooms are facing the lagoon which is a bonus. The breakfast was also good and delicious

The house keeping is not done properly and effectively. They really need to improve because our room was not cleaned properly for most of the days. We even complained and that's when they started cleaning it well. Their dinner buffet was not that delicious, we only ate there for one night.

The Hotel is right at the Lagoon and the view is superb. In front of the Hotel the walkway is open for the public, meaning, joggers and people who likes to walk, drive bicycles...etc. pass by - also very early in the morning. You will wake up because of them. In overall the room was very clean, shower is perfect, toilet as well and mattresses very good. Enough plugs are there to connect your phone, etc. Pillows should be replaced...very worn. We took our own pillows. In overall the staff is very helpful and very friendly. Always willing to help carrying your suitcases up the stairs. It was very nice to sleep with an open door at night to enjoy the air from the sea. Friendly ness of staff 10/10. It is quite at night, until 22h00 you will hear the people from the "Raft" Restaurant. But this did not bother us.

I can't say what I did not like - Management should urgently arrange some people for maintaining the Hotel. Lamps are falling down... also some doors doesn't close very well. Toilet paper, Water, Coffee, Milk, Sugar were not replaced when we were there for 3 nights. We did collect those at the Reception. But as I said...even if we had to collect these at the Reception, the people were always friendly. We even collected a bulb at the Reception and the lady installed it in my room. Hand towel paper were not replaced in the bathroom at the Reception, although I have told them 3 times to do so. But all this did not give us an awful stay. For the money we have paid for 3 nights, 3 people...and a 3 star Hotel.....this small "complaints" should be attended to.

Probably the best place I have stayed off this site. Was travelling for work and this the only decent option in Walvis Bay, the price was very ideal for bed and breakfast. The location is superb, only about 20min from airport. Very well furnished and stunning location overlooking the bay. There's also an option of a few good restaurants like the Raft which was only about 4 min walk from the hotel. The staff are very helpful and the wifi is reliable. Only had breakfast but their buffet selection was outstanding for bed and breakfast.

Not much to complain about, my room wasn't ready when I checked in and they rushed the cleaning lady who had to come back when I was in shower to check if she'd emptied the bins. She didn't seem too happy but not super upset about that. The location is also open to the public footpath on the bay side and some drunk was revving his motorbike right outside at about 4 am. Not in Hotels control but a slight annoyance.

Protea Pelican Hotel was such a wonderful place Went for my birthday and the staff could not be more helpful and friendly I can name a lot of them but Welma Heleni Elizabeth Marianna Mathew deserve just the best compliments I cant wait to return as the position is fantastic with all the flamingos right in front of us This hotel is outstanding

Just the wind in the afternoons

The location of this hotel is excellent. Our rooms were on the ground floor overlooking the sea. This hotel looks its age. It has seen better times. The breakfast was excellent.

This hotel needs an upgrade. The room and furniture looks like it has seen better time.

Perfect location, waking up seeing the flamingos outside. Great location to the dunes, outdoor activities and restaurants. Clean rooms and cleaning staff made extra effort. Wonderful breakfast and very friendly staff

The staff were friendly and eager to help.... The rooms had a beautiful view of the lagoon, and it was close to other restaurants...

There was nothing to dislike

super staff who looked after us and went the extra mile helped with an early check in which was lovely booked safe cabs for us to use a good safe friendly and comfortable hotel and great value

Hotel is not new, but the rooms are great and the access to the beach front is amazing. Good to walk and do exercises early in the morning and with a nice breeze at evening.

Hotel in general is not new. But the room is big.

The hotel was in a good location. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and tidy with a great view of the lagoon

I think the property could use an update. The wifi didn't work in some locations throughout the hotel.
