What guests think

At Premier Hotel Quatermain, travellers frequently highlight friendly, professional staff, well-kept grounds with old-school charm, and spacious, comfortable rooms, alongside a convenient Sandton location with a helpful free shuttle, creating a pleasant base for business and leisure.

Across multiple reviews, Wi-Fi is unreliable or unavailable in rooms. The multi-building layout has many stairs, no elevators, and confusing signage, which challenges accessibility and navigation. Some rooms feel dated with maintenance hassles and occasional noise, and service, while often warm, can be inconsistent, with slow responses and missed requests. Overall, expect good value if you can trade some polish for character.

This is not a four star property : Internet not working except the lobby area, room service out of most items on menu, air conditioning noisy, bedding quite uncomfortable, Shower pressure very slow, 2 pool chairs for 100 guests lol !! When i asked to speak to a manger, then i am told there is none. That explains everything. This a luxury hostel with south african service, slow, unefficient, not ready, and poorly trained. This property is combination of several buildings and is a real maze at night. No elevator. Good for a one night stay.

Fint, rent og flot sted og kunne sagtens finde på at komme igen, især prisen taget i betragtning. Dog: Værelserne kunne virke lidt trætte, herunder aircondition, som larmede pga alderdom og som ikke kunne indstilles til andet end fuld kraft eller ingen. Meget simpelt træningslokale og shuttlebus var ofte ikke tilgængelig. Men som sagt, ud fra den pris vi betalte, var det pengene værd.

We were pretty disappointed. First, our non-smoking room smelled like smoke. I would have thought they would recognize this and at least air it out before putting guests in. Second, the safe didn't work. I called initially and was told maintenance left after10pm. Next morning I called back. They said they would come. Next afternoon I checked in at the front desk. They told me it was fixed, but it wasn't. I reported back it didn't work, but it never was fixed. The hair dryer cord was drilled through a drawer and was supposed to plugged into an outlet which had been ripped out of the wall. The only way to use the hair dryer was to take the drawer to another part of the room where there was a working plug. Finally it was Saturday night and there was a party in the ballroom. I would have thought they would have stopped the music at a reasonable time like 10pm but it was still blasting when we went to sleep around 10:30.
