My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms had some issues like a strong cigarette smoke smell and muddy water from the taps, but they were equipped with a small bar fridge, working air conditioning, warm water, and satellite television. The service provided by the staff was warm and welcoming, although at times it felt a bit formal and aloof. The location in Chingola, Zambia was perfect, but there were concerns about the cleanliness of the water. The dining experience was a highlight with fantastic meals, while the facilities were average overall.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were modern with an average size flat screen TV, selected cable channels, tea, and coffee facilities, although the small bar fridge was too old and could do with a much larger screen. The service was friendly and warm, despite a few minor issues with the front office attendant. The location in Chingola was perfect, but the proximity to smokers in the dining area could be irritating at times. The dining experience was delightful, with delicious dishes offered, and the facilities met my expectations.

The hotel had recently upgraded rooms that were clean, fresh, and equipped with a small bar fridge, working air conditioning, warm water, and satellite television. The staff at the Protea were very welcoming and attentive, though there were moments of formality. The location on the Zambian Copper Belt was perfect for travelers familiar with the area. The dining experience, while good overall, lacked cereal options but impressed in other aspects. The facilities offered were definitely on point.
