The suite-style rooms are spacious and beautifully designed, offering excellent privacy and comfort. I slept like a baby on the plush bed, and the air conditioning worked perfectly—ideal for South Africa’s warm climate. The bathroom is well thought out with a clean, dry-wet separation and high-quality fixtures. Staff went above and beyond—greeted me warmly, helped with luggage, offered personalized recommendations for local attractions, and even brought a welcome drink. Breakfast was a highlight: a diverse buffet with both Western and local dishes, fresh ingredients, and freshly ground coffee. Everything felt premium without feeling overpriced.

Our first night was definitely disappointing—the room was small and lacked proper airflow due to its location, making it uncomfortably hot. However, we were truly blessed with an incredible staff member named Mbali, who stepped in and kindly arranged a better room with a balcony. This made all the difference! We were able to stay for the remainder of our booking and even celebrated my husband’s birthday on Sunday—exactly why we booked this trip in the first place. Her kindness turned a stressful start into a memorable experience. The hotel’s overall charm, combined with such exceptional service, makes it worth recommending. I’m already considering returning.

We recently stayed at Luxe on Ridge Boutique Hotel for a friend's wedding in Durban, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive—especially Shanice, who went above and beyond to help us multiple times. I accidentally left behind my AirPods after check-out, and she took the time to locate them and return them to me—truly exceptional service. The only minor suggestion would be to expand the breakfast menu with more vegetarian options, as there weren’t always enough choices available. Otherwise, the hotel’s ambiance, attention to detail, and overall comfort made it a standout stay. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Durban.

The Hilton Durban has been back in operation for a few months now after a three-year closure due to government policies during the pandemic. Despite the long break, the hotel remains in excellent condition with a soft, elegant ambiance that feels timeless. While the location isn’t ideal for walking around—Durban can be risky in certain areas and the hotel isn’t directly on the beach—the service is outstanding, truly making the stay memorable. The restaurant is on the pricier side, but the quality justifies the cost without feeling overpriced. The room itself is lovely—elegant, well-designed, and comfortable, though not overly extravagant. Overall, it’s a solid choice for travelers seeking refined comfort and reliable hospitality.
