Official Description (provided by the hotel):: In the heart of the adventure capital of the Mpumalanga Lowveld, a mere 20 minute drive from the Kruger National Park, Protea Hotel Hazyview is nestled on a hill overlooking the beautiful Sand River Valley. The rooms are alluring and spacious offering all the conveniences that one expects to make this a home away from home. All our rooms overlook lush gardens that have an abundance of birdlife, adding to the feeling of being away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Not to mention several spacious family rooms that provide a comfortable area for the family to relax and unwind. Lying by the pool with a sundowner, whilst admiring the stunning views of the valley and watching the kids play on the nearby trampoline and jungle gym is perfection at its best. The chefs have prepared a wide variety of dining options to ensure that we cater optimally to healthy appetites and provide special meals for our young visitors. Additional facilities include conference venues, floodlit tennis courts, games room and a children's play park – so bring you game. Nearby attractions include the Blyde River Canyon, God's Window and Pilgrims Rest to name a few. For the adrenalin seekers, exciting adventures such as hot air balloon rides, river rafting, quad biking and many more can be arranged. GUESTs may also experience open vehicle day and night safaris in search of Africa's "Big Five" and lesser known “Little Five”. ... more less

“Our least favorite hotel in South Africa”

Reviewed 17 May 2013

We found our stay at Protea Hotel in Hazyview to be our least favorite of the ten hotels we stayed at during our three week trip to South Africa, Zambia and Swaziland. The facility LOOKS very nice with quaint rustic rooms nestled in a lush park and the town of Hazyview is convenient for visiting Kruger Park. However, we found... More

“Could certainly be better for the price”

Reviewed 15 May 2013

I have stayed at this hotel three times now - mostly because of the conference facilities. The conference facilities are excellent and very professionally managed, but it stops there. I really cannot say that this place left a good impression on me. Whilst the view and decor are beautiful, the place lacks warmth and attention to detail. The staff just... More

My wife and I stayed at the Protea Hazyview after getting bumped from staying at Hippo Hollow.

We got checked in without a problem... More

“I expected more for the price”

Reviewed 31 March 2013 via mobile

My girlfriend and I booked in last night (late arrival). The receptionist was very helpful but left all alone to deal with us and a particularly awkward customer (also late arrival). There was no porter to assist with luggage. The room was apparently recently renovated. It was comfortable although a bit noisy at times. There were no bath tiles in... More

The rooms are large, clean with very comfortable beds. The hotel property is big with nice views from the pool area.

“Not a good experience”

Close enough to Kruger Park. The rooms were okay. Hotel in the middle of nowhere, no way that you can walk around & explore. The worst part & main reason for the low rating is because when we had dinner one evening, & the hotel tried to charge us for water. The staff called us in the middle of the... More
