The service was excellent, and the room was spotless and well-organized—really made for a comfortable stay. That said, the bathroom and shower area are quite compact, and privacy is limited, which might be an issue for some travelers. Still, considering the great value and prime location near the beach, it’s a solid choice for a relaxing getaway. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and we’d definitely consider staying here again.

The location is excellent—just a short walk from some fantastic restaurants and cozy cafés, perfect for exploring the local scene. The rooms are spacious and immaculately clean, making it a comfortable stay from start to finish. I especially want to highlight Elliot, the manager—he’s incredibly attentive, professional, and always ready to help with anything you need. His warm hospitality truly made a difference. This place offers such great value, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Durban.

Staying at Goble Palms Guest Lodge & Urban Retreat was an absolute delight. The accommodation is beautifully designed with a tasteful, modern touch, and the rooms are spotlessly clean—every detail feels thoughtfully curated. The staff couldn’t have been more welcoming or helpful; they went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Breakfast was a highlight—fresh, abundant, and delicious. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable: just a 5-minute ride from the beach and super close to Florida Road, where you’ll find a great variety of restaurants and local favorites. Whether you're here for relaxation or exploring the city, this place hits all the right notes. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Durban.

My stay at McAllisters on 8th in Durban was generally positive. The hotel is conveniently located, just a short walk from the city center, and easily accessible by local transit. The room was spotless—cleanliness was definitely a highlight, with no signs of dirt or grime anywhere. However, I did notice a leaky showerhead that needed attention, and the main mattress had started to sag in the middle, suggesting it’s time for a replacement. The sleeper sofa mattress was particularly uncomfortable and felt quite grimy—definitely in need of a thorough cleaning. That said, the pool area was well-maintained and pleasant to use. Staff were friendly and professional—especially the housekeeping and security teams who made a good impression. The front desk, however, seemed understaffed at times, leading to longer wait times when checking in or requesting assistance. Overall, despite a few minor drawbacks, the hotel offers great value and a clean, welcoming atmosphere. I’d recommend it for travelers looking for a comfortable base in Durban.

St. James on Venice delivered an exceptional experience from start to finish. The moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism—staff were attentive without being overbearing, always ready to help with local tips or booking recommendations. The room was spotless, spacious, and thoughtfully designed, with a comfortable bed that made for a truly restful night’s sleep. The shower was excellent—strong water pressure and clean fixtures, which is always a win in my book. One of the highlights? The serene koi pond nestled in the garden. Sitting by it during the evening was pure tranquility. Every detail, from the quiet ambiance to the thoughtful amenities, felt intentional and well-executed. Given how much I received for the price, this stay far exceeded my expectations. It’s not just a hotel—it feels like a home away from home. I’d absolutely book again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Durban.

My stay at Essenwood House was generally enjoyable. The location is convenient, the surroundings are peaceful, and the room was clean and well-maintained. I did experience some load shedding during my visit, which would have been less stressful if there had been a backup generator—though I appreciate the staff’s efforts to manage the situation. Despite that minor inconvenience, the hospitality and overall atmosphere made up for it. The property offers great value for money, especially for travelers looking for a quiet retreat in Durban. I’d definitely consider returning and hope they can install a backup power system in the future.

This hotel is absolutely fantastic! Right in the heart of Durban, it's just a short walk from restaurants, shops, and all the local attractions. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful—always smiling and going the extra mile to make your stay comfortable. The rooms are clean, stylish, and well-maintained, with a cozy atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. It’s such a great value for the quality and location. I’d highly recommend Avondale Boutique Hotel to anyone visiting Durban—it’s truly a standout choice.

The Grange Gardens Hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. The staff were incredibly welcoming and professional, and the security team made me feel safe throughout my stay. The room was spotless and well-organized, with a thoughtful touch like the in-room fridge—perfect for keeping drinks cool. I especially appreciated the hairdryer in the bathroom; it worked great and added so much convenience. The location is fantastic—quiet yet close to shopping centers, and the view from the window was absolutely beautiful. I felt right at home and would definitely book here again when I return to Durban. A truly memorable stay!

I absolutely loved my stay at Emakhosini Hotel on East! The hotel offers ample parking, which was a big plus for me. It’s incredibly clean throughout, and the staff are genuinely friendly and welcoming—always ready to help with a smile. Location-wise, it’s super convenient; I was just a short walk away from restaurants, shops, and other local amenities. Everything I needed was close by, making my trip stress-free and enjoyable. This place truly delivers on comfort, cleanliness, and hospitality. Definitely a top pick if you're visiting Durban—I’ll be back!

The Benjamin ApartHotel is well located and offers good value for money, especially if you're looking to explore Durban on foot. The neighborhood is vibrant and close to local attractions. However, during our stay, we noticed black mold in the shower and stains on the sheets—definitely not what we expected from a place that claims to be clean and well-maintained. We had to visit reception three separate times just to request bath towels, which was frustrating. Also, if you're staying here, definitely ask for a room facing away from Florida Road—music from the nearby club played loud into the night, making it nearly impossible to sleep. While the location and overall price point are strong, the lack of attention to cleanliness and noise control really impacted our experience. Would recommend it only if you can get a quieter room and don’t mind dealing with some maintenance issues.

Staying at Albion Manor was an absolute delight! The room was spotless, spacious, and incredibly comfortable—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring Durban. The hosts were warm and welcoming, going out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Their attention to detail truly made the experience special. And the breakfast? Absolutely delicious—fresh, hearty, and served with a smile. From the cozy ambiance to the excellent service, every aspect of this stay exceeded my expectations. I’d highly recommend Albion Manor to anyone looking for a peaceful, well-run retreat in the heart of Durban.

This visit was truly disappointing. I’ve been coming to this hotel for years and always enjoyed the excellent food and service, but this recent experience was a complete letdown. The bar staff were arrogant and completely dismissive, taking ages to serve even simple drinks with no courtesy. Management seemed indifferent—no apology, no effort to resolve issues. It felt like the place had gone downhill fast. I can’t imagine returning or recommending it to anyone. This is not the Britannia Hotel I once knew. A real shame.
