Liked: Cleanliness
Some of the reception staff wasn’t very friendly but the restaurant and porter were welcoming. Hotel room shower had very little pressure making it very difficult to shower. The house keeping burnt my daughter’s pants sent for laundry. It was also a bit noisy at times. Overall it’s a decent hotel with an efficient shuttle to and from the airport.

Small improvements would go a long way

This hotel has a lot going for it. Close to OR Tambo, with a half hourly shuttle service means getting to and from the airport is effortless. Comfortable rooms - albeit not well equipped for a Jo’Burg winter. Friendly staff good food etc and not overpriced. Three things let this hotel down badly: 1. The lighting in the rooms is extremely poor 2. The hotel lifts are very inefficient and I have found myself having to wait unacceptable times for a lift 3. The fittings in the rooms are starting to show their age Other than that the hotel is very clean and comfortable and I have enjoyed the hospitality on at least four occasions

We have stayed at the Premier Hotel on numerous occasions but this time we were rather disappointed! The toilet seat was loose and certain plugs weren’t working, I had to boil the kettle on the bedside table and I was unable to dry my hair. We were disappointed!

This is my third stay here and it was as good as the first time. The friendly staff is the highlight. Nothing is too much to ask and everyone has such pride - it shows! The breakfast buffet is delicious. The shuttle to and from the airport is perfect and easy to catch. The perfect play for an overnight stay
