BON Hotels develop KZN portfolio with two new properties
Following its recent acquisition of Hotel 64 on Gordon in Durban, BON Hotels has announced the addition of two new properties in the KwaZulu-Natal region, namely that of Protea Hotel Empangeni, to be named BON Hotel Empangeni, and Protea Hotel Waterfront Richards Bay, to be named BON Hotel Waterfront Richards Bay.
The group's objective is to ensure that the transition to BON Hotels' systems and procedures is implemented with minimum fuss with the aim of securing new business and ultimately improving upon the performance of the hotels.

BON Hotel Waterfront Richards Bay
Guy Stehlik, CEO of BON Hotels says: "These hotels are exceptional products – they are the best in their class in their respective locations and it’s going to be our job to make sure that we build on that good base."
BON Hotel Waterfront Richards Bay offers 75 spacious, modern rooms, each with a view of the ocean-front and yacht harbour. Facilities include a conference centre with three meeting rooms, a restaurant, cocktail bar and lounge, and swimming pool. General manager, André de Klerk says that Richards Bay is underestimated as a tourist destination but has much to offer in terms of its beaches, fishing, water sports and entertainment, along with its strong corporate offering.
BON Hotel Empageni
BON Hotel Empangeni, located in the heart of Empangeni’s business district halfway between Durban and Swaziland, is best suited for the business and leisure traveller. Combining simplicity with understated style, accommodation comprises of 55 tastefully decorated rooms, an in-house restaurant, bar and three meeting rooms seating up to 230 guests. De Klerk says that this hotel is popular with the government sector and for conferences, weddings and enjoys some domestic tourism too.
BON Hotels has been working to develop their property portfolio and sales and marketing presence in KwaZulu-Natal and are looking to further replicate the BON experience throughout South Africa for their customers. Stehlik says that as they are doing in Nigeria and Angola, the group’s strategy is to create inter-city tourism circuits to boost the industry and link important centres across South Africa.
