The hotel is centrally located and everything is within walking distance. The rooms are comfortable and clean. Maybe not the most modern decoration, but everything worked just fine. Staff is helpful. Unlike what other reviews said, I found there to be plenty of parking for cars available. I had a good stay.
The breakfast is way overpriced and underwhelming. Much too expensive compared to other fancier hotels in the city. They should reduce the price. Also the sound of the traffic light in front of the hotel gets a bit annoying at night.

I was invited to receive an award at the University of Botswana, hosted by Mulher Forte African Literature PtyLtd . I stayed for the weekend and had a lovely time. Cresta President Hotel is definitely going to see me again. Perfect place, perfect people and most delicious food.

It's very convenient to go to supermarkets and mini market from this hotel. It takes just two minutes to walk from this hotel to intercape bus stop to Johannesburg. All staffs have a very good hospitality and politeness.

Location - strategically located in the old part of the city closer to African markets, supermarkets and lots of activities. Staff - very friendly and helpful staff Food - the chef knows how to cook good food If you want to immerse with locals, it is much easier to do it here than other hotels in the CBD area.
Nothing really. Wasn't happy with the way one of the restaurant staff acted. She shouldn't be working directly with guests as she was very rude unlike everyone else.

Friendly accommodating staff. It was easy to arrange for a free late check out. I have visited the President Hotel several times over the last few years. two years ago the menu and food was excellent, last year below standard but this time the menu and quality was almost back to what it was formerly. Rooms are spacious with a large writing desk. Compared to similar hotels in the centre of Gaborone good value for money.
Noisy air conditioners and the key card for the door was several times faulty.

The place is presidential as it name says very classic and exceptional
Carpets looks old especially on the corridor plus cards kept on stopping working I hope it's an issue that they sorted out

Service was great! The hotel room is spacious and had a filling breakfast.
Just need to fix the shower head. It was loose so we couldn't adjust it and therefore had to stand close to the wall to get access to water. But not a train smash 👍🏾
