Premier Hotel, Pretoria
A pleasant, old fashioned hotel well located opposite the Union Building and an easy, safe walk to the city centre. Recommended stay especially for Australians - feels just like a Canberra hotel.

Made me feel at home
Came from the UK for business, all the staff were very welcoming and eager to please. The restaurant staff were incredibly nice, make the effort to get to know tem they are genuinely hospitable. They made my stay very pleasant.
