Summary: Hotel is waterfront . Very busy with families during the holidays.

didier Oct 28, 2025 09:21:32 PM

Summary: 1. All guests had to share an iron. We had to go downstairs in the lobby to get one. No iron in the room. 2. Complimentary water bottle was not replaced after room was cleaned 3. Hotel decided to clean one of the elevator during very busy morning usage. So that left only one elevator in service 4. At one point, no porter was available to fetch anything in the room

Summary: Had to book this as an emergency change when the initial hotel I booked (Avondale) was not available/closed. Turned out to be a great option. Amazing service and right by the beach, making it easy to get to the Comrades expo and start line. Definitely worth it.

Mark Mar 26, 2025 11:46:09 PM

Summary: Negatives.. Tired hotel, typical of the Durban area unfortunately. Main pool on the 10th floor was under maintenance so not open. The main reason we booked this hotel! Constant noise of water flowing through pipes 24 hrs a day. Couldn’t sleep for the two days we stayed Ground floor bar played the same music all day, very loudly! No tab for drinks meant having to walk around the other side of bar to pay by card for every drink bought. Positives… Staff were very good. Couldn’t do enough to help. The breakfast was very reasonable, considering the amount of guests, although no coffee machine meant waiting ages for hot drinks after ordering. Evening buffet meal was of a good standard.
