Guest Reviews

• Louis (5/5): Just fair - Breakfast was excellent, location was very good The room was rather claustrophobic, what was advertised was one king sized bed and a smaller one but it wasn’t so on the ground
• Jite (7/5): -
• Osarumen (3/5): Bad - The cook was good The bathroom was very dirty from mould to dirty grout in the bathroom.
• Mofe (7/5): -
• Paul (8/5): Awesome - Breakfast was good and the location of the hotel is at the crnter of the town. None
• dyer (5/5): - The location and the friendly staff The property needs updating the bathroom needs an intensive cleaning and maintenance. Bathroom was full of algae and mound. The flooring in the bedroom was unstable and slaps on floor was coming off making the flooring very uneven
• Joshua (10/5): -
• Esosa (10/5): The service I got was exceptional , I was treated like a king. Friendly staffs, beautiful and secure - The service I got was exceptional , I was treated like a king. Friendly staffs, beautiful and secured environment . Everything
• Chris (9/5): -
• Edafe (8/5): -
• Florence (8/5): The accommodation was good but carpets were a bit grubby! - Breakfast was perfect. Menu was varied
• Tuoyo (3/5): -
• Victor (10/5): - Food was good
• Clement (9/5): -
• Alexander F. Verhees (8/5): - The staff at the reception is very welcoming. The rooms are up to standard and clean. The service during breakfast needs to be improved. As well, items where not replenished swiftly.
• Hans (9/5): - Very nice staff
• Ebegue (10/5): Fantastic - Location is good. Breakfast is awesome Staff very cordial Internet is very frustrating. I don’t mind paying extra to get internet 24/7.
• Oluseun (7/5): The food was excellent, the staffs were very hospitable and professional! - I had beans with plantain and garden eggs sause with some tomatoes gravy with fish. It tasted heavenly!! My only negative experience was the rug on the corridor on the second floor where my room was. It triggered my dustmite allergy.
• Udoh (9/5): -
• Egba (10/5): - I like there bed
• Hadiza (8/5): -
• Oluwaseyi (7/5): - Being asked to pay before check-in. While this is not an issue itself. However, it would be helpful if guests were informed by email before arrival so they can prepare for this payment during check in. I made a reservation for myself and a guest, who arrived at the hotel before me while I was about to fly from Abuja. He was unfortunately delayed at the reception because he was asked to pay before checking in. I was forced to transfer the payment while at the airport. I wondered what would have happened if I was unreachable. I originally made the booking from the UK through booking.com and I had expected to pay during check out. I am happy to pay at check-in but I would have been very helpful if I had been informed by the hotel of this policy.
• Ramsey (5/5): -
• Samuel (9/5): - Staff were very helpful
• Osedehi (10/5): Very nice and quiet exactly what I was looking for. - I don't eat breakfast but I had coffee and it was great Just the rug in the hallway needs to be either steam clean or removed
• stella (8/5): It was a nice quiet secured place to stay with excellent food - Excellent complimentary buffet breakfast for two and paid buffet dinner The standard room is small.
• Abiodun (8/5): - The quality of the breakfast is below standard. They need to improve on this.
• Osagie (6/5): - Rooms are too small, door and wardrobe are in conflict, stains on duvet, however, staff are exceptional(considering location) professional, nice and handle service calls in a timely way. Great food, nice accessible location.
• GODSTIME (10/5): great - great place nothing
• Derek (8/5): Fine hotel but small rooms - The hotel was fine. I had assumed all Protea hotels would be the same and having stayed the previous nights in Protea in Warri I was very surprised that my bedroom was quite small. Overall it was fine. Everyone was friendly of course and helpful. This was my third vacation in Benin and it was the best hotel out of the others I had tried.
• Immanuel (8/5): - Probably expensive, but overall, was worth it.
• Family (2/5): - Food was Great, Refreshments area was top the service staff was nice but the security and gate Men fought with us, for My Swiss Husband it was not a pleasant welcome they fought with us they said they will throw us out of the hotel after we payed we respeted what they said that we can't hold party indoor we went outside the gate we were at the main road away from the hotel after we were done when we were coming in for Refreshments the security men locked us outside we did not know why my leg was crushed with the gate i got injured the security men and the receptionist were not nice my husband said he will never book such an hotel again Potera never again The security men were very rude, and the receptionist i dont know

• Uwagboe (10/5): Exceptional - The room was very clean, though small. Hotel staff were very professional and ready to help. Their hot breakfast is very good and they had lots of varieties. Their towels are a bit old and I think they should be replaced.
• Uwagboe (10/5): Exceptional - Protea Hotel Benin City is in a very nice and safe location. The staff are extremely professional, and they go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable. The breakfast is very good with lots and lots of varieties. I really enjoyed my stay and felt very safe. The carpets in the hallways need changing or a thorough deep cleaning needed ASAP.
• David (10/5): Exceptional -
• Vasile-silvan (10/5): Exceptional -

• Rosaline (8/5): Very good -
• OLADITI (10/5): Excellent - The staffs made our stay warm. The breakfast menu was comprehensive and delicious. I especially enjoyed the freshly made watermelon juice. I slept soundly in my bed too. Thumbs up to the entire management.
• Noma (8/5): Lovely, will stay again - Hotel was neat, front of house staff exceptionally friendly and professional. Breakfast was great, with good variety. Bathroom was really dated, could do with some upgrade. AC did not work well and the weather was super hot.

• Mr (7/5): Good -
• Paul (8/5): - The Espresso machine was down, and that was something I was looking forward to. The star were great and very attentive
• Margaret (8/5): Good. Will revisit - The breakfast had varied local and international options. But the best part was, any meal could be made to order upon request It would have been great if drinking bottled water was readily available without being charged. For me who had dietary issues, I would have like to see calorie controlled options. The pool was good but hardly used because of its location. It is not a good feeling to be oogled by non guests
• Josephine (10/5): - Good
• Marvis (8/5): Very good -
• Faith (5/5): Passable - Friendly staff.. They need to do a bit of upgrades especially the Television and bathroom, we are no longer in the 90s

• Chris (9/5): Superb -
• Lake-on (9/5): My stay at the Protea Emotan Benin was satisfactory. - I particularly loved the location, and the proximity to the shopping mall was an added boost.
• A.j. (9/5): This is the best hotel in Benin City! - It’s very western and the beds are not hard as a rock like most of the hotels in Benin City. The staff is also very welcoming and attentive. There are some road constructions happening in front of the hotel so you have to use the back access to get to the hotel.
• obofoni (10/5): - I had a great experience staying at Protea Benin City. The staff were professional. Checking in and out was smooth.
• Aimiuwu (7/5): Good -
• Victor (8/5): - Property has been managed well over the years. However the use of rugs on the corridors leading to the rooms should be reconsidered so the public spaces can smell fresher
• Anthony (1/5): Did not enjoy it - Bed sheet full of blood The food is bad the bed sheet or duvets full of blood
• Hart (8/5): Very good -
• Joy (4/5): - Property will cancel your reservation and will not refund original booking even if you check in the next day. I have had to pay for two hotel rooms for 5 night stays each but I only stayed in one hotel room.
• Francis (10/5): Exceptional -
• Eguaoje (10/5): Exceptional -
• Emmanuel (10/5): - Awesome!

• Felix (10/5): Exceptional -
• Christiana (7/5): At a different price, it’ll be excellent. - Location. Size. Bathroom had a musky smell. Pricey.
• Chavan (9/5): Superb -
• Augustus (8/5): Protea hotel Benin city - The hotel is old and needs to be remodeled. The staff are top notch and go out of their way to accommodate your every need. I felt secure throughout my stay, other than the outdated rooms, this is the best hotel in Benin for now.
• Alimi (7/5): Good -
• Christopher (10/5): Exceptional -
• Victor (5/5): Passable -
• Kate (2/5): Very poor - Absolutely nothing Bed is hard as rock not comfortable at all loud busy road in the day loud music at night until dawn gatemen where super rude food is always late WiFi doesn't work or very low connection not a smart TV with Netflix etc no help from staff members for a very expensive hotel nothing is worth it at all I've stayed in cheaper hotels with better room size and service mosquito at night at the pool area you can't sit out at night for fresh air and staff do nothing to manage it I've never wanted to leave an hotel so desperately you couldn't pay me to stay here again and I definitely wouldn't recommend this place to anyone
• Mohammed (8/5): Very good -
• Ehinon (10/5): - The Protea Hotel will be my choice for stay in Benin moving forward. The showers were always hot & air conditioner, always cold. The staff was extremely accommodating and prepared to help or offer guidance. The beds could be softer but that’s the standard in the area. I always felt secure about my belongings during my stay. The cleaner was an absolute pleasure every morning, offering new sheets & towels at request. Overall a great stay. Be sure to try the grilled catfish & the ice cold Heineken on draft.
• Iguwe (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mubarak (6/5): - The staff need more training. Restaurant needs to put their things together as everything you order is not available. The worst part is they will take the order and be back after 30 mins to tell you is not available. The rooms are clean and good.
• Keisha (7/5): A decent place to stay for short visits. - The staff were accommodating to requests like bringing clean sheets, towels and iron and ironing board. Wi-Fi doesn’t work in the rooms, you’ll have to sit in the lobby to use it.
• Hassanwj (7/5): Good -
• Timothy (9/5): Superb -
• Patrick (9/5): Superb - Professional clean environment and courteous staff.
• Patrick (9/5): Superb -
