This hotels decor and facilities really takes one by surprise. While the rooms are smaller than I would be 100% comfortable in, they are adequate, and are equipped with the facilities needed for an acceptable stay. The F&B areas are impressive, and attention is given to guest comfort and enjoyment. Staff are pleasant and helpful.

Stayed here for 8 days, while working in Pretoria - as mentioned in other reviews, building is nothing special, but the service is really great. Breakfast is a must and everything I needed was provided for. The front desk was very friendly and so was every other person I ran into. Parking in the basement is insufficient and ran out... More

I stayed for over a month in this hotel, during my first visit to South Africa, the entire month of January and part of February, thanks to a good deal I got.

Hotel 224 was very comfortable and friendly. It's motto is "Budget in comfort" and it met that description. In the U.S., I usually stay in Holiday Inns or Comfort Inns and it was comparable. The room was small but clean, nice flat screen TV, towels, soap and shampoo provided, drinkable tap water (in Africa that is sometimes in doubt), very... More

The hotel markets itself based on quality on a budget, and that's pretty close. Poky sized rooms, in a neat of a bit of a spring clean, but good service, a respectable restaurant and a great location. Some rooms look onto the Union Buildings. On-site secure parking and all at a price quite remarkable for a capital city. I even... More

We booked a room and were terribly disappointed with the condition of the rooms when we finally arrived. The comforters were soiled and worn (ripped). The showers were equally as dirty. It also doesn't help that the rooms are terribly small and the bathrooms even smaller. We were also alarmed that we were advised by staff not to walk just... More
