Royal Ushaka Hotel Morningside ★★★
"The pillows were dirty and had stains. Used toilet paper. You could hear everything happening on the other room"
Onomo Hotel Durban ★★★
"Wonderful Location near beach, Safe, Good Breakfast, Clean rooms"
Southern Sun Elangeni & Maharani ★★★★
"Absolutely terrible, this place is falling apart, it’s dingy and dirty, gives you the ick when you walk into the room, it’s dated and no renovations have been done since 2008 or they gave us a room that has never been renovated because it looks so old , broken and dingy. The windows are disgustingly dirty, the beds are tiny and there tv does not even work properly"
Road Lodge Umhlanga Ridge ★
"Location is good , rooms are well maintained .its worth the price. Will definitely come back"
The Balmoral - Halaal ★★★★
"Beautiful hotel, aesthetically pleasing with clean comfy room. Great location, short walk to the beach. The breakfast was delicious and had variety."
The Royal Hotel by Coastlands Hotels & Resorts ★★★
"The hotel is located in the heart of Durban. Pleasant location, friendly staff. Excellent restaurant, with pleasant, relaxing music playing in the evenings. The rooms are spacious, but the furniture is dated. There is a shower and bathtub. Hot water is available 24 hours a day. Daily cleaning. Good views from the windows."
The Capital Pearls Hotel ★★★★
"I recently stayed at The Pearls in Umhlanga and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and had a very relaxing atmosphere. The staff were friendly, professional, and always willing to assist. I especially enjoyed the beautiful sea views and the convenient location close to shops and restaurants. Everything about my stay was pleasant, and I left feeling refreshed. I would definitely recommend The Pearls to anyone visiting Umhlanga."
Coastlands Umhlanga Hotel and Convention Centre ★★★★
"Had a visit to Coastland Umhlanga for a business engagement and had the pleasure of being served by Lester at the Bar. What a gentlemen and the service was absolutely fantastic"
SolSands Hotel & Self-Catering ★★

Parade Hotel
"Room 100 had a few cockroaches that needs attention. Otherwise all good and excellent 👌 I enjoyed my stay and hope to return next time."
268 on Ridge Guesthouse
"This accommodation is basic but neat and comfortable. We arrived late in the evening but there was someone waiting to receive us. The garden rooms are small but we were just looking for a decent shower, toilet and a comfortable place to sleep. There is DSTV. The parking was fine and safe. Some items like furniture may need some repair or replacement. I can overlook the minor repair issues based on the need just to have a clean and neat place to sleep over"
The Edward
"Pleasant stay - Monday and Tuesday 19 and 20 Feb 2024. Was greeted by a porter who assisted with suitcase from where I had parked my car across the road. Check in staff were friendly and efficient. I decided to park my car in the underground parking offered by the hotel which does come at an extra cost. Both porter and reception staff were realistic around security and gave good advice. The hotel while positioned "centrally" along the Durban beachfront is more on the south side and just one block away from the main street from the city centre and this street corner does attract all sorts of individuals. If going for a walk - make sure all valuables like cell phones / wallets/ purse are not visible - tuck these under clothes. Also don't wear flash jewellery or fancy watches. Room was spacious and clean - comes with a small balcony. I was somewhat concerned in being allocated a room on the first floor where I would be disturbed by noise from the street. This did not happen - room is fairly sound proofed and there was no disturbance at night, so slept well - but noting that I stayed on a Monday and Tuesday - not sure if the same silence would be experienced over a weekend. The airconditioner was silent and worked well. Bathroom was somewhat scanty with toiletries given that this is marketed as an upmarket hotel - in fact the Blue Waters - north of the beachfront has an offer more toiletries and gives guests chocolates and large bottle of water on arrival. No chocolate and the smallest bottle of water is provided which you find in the bathroom. As I did not make use of the small water bottle offered it is not known if this small bottle gets replaced each day. I brought in my own water bottles as a I prefer 1.5 litres. Hot water from shower is almost instant so all good from that point of view. Wifi was a little unstable but that is because of load shedding that is being experienced by country. The food from the dining room / restaurant if you want to eat lunch or dinner at the hotel is good and delicious. The breakfast buffet is quite varied with lots of choices."
Royal Palm Hotel
"Hotel room a little worn out,"
Suncoast Hotel & Towers
"First time in South Africa, first time in Durban on business, the hotel recommended by a South African friend, 30 kilometers from the airport, about 10 minutes drive from Durban Port. The location is quite convenient, there is a supporting entertainment city, dining, movies and casinos next to the hotel, and the internal passage connects to the first floor of the hotel. It takes 3 minutes to walk to the Sunshine Coast Beach. The sea view room I booked is a little compact, enough for one person, but it may be a little small for two people. Traditional British hotel service, clean and tidy environment, civilized and polite black waiters, especially for Chinese people, the hotel service here is impressive."
Sanchia Luxury Guest House
"Lovely overnight stay to celebrate a milestone birthday with complimentary cake! Great service and food, quiet and picturesque environment."
Cowrie Cove Guest House
"This place has it all. Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in leafy gardens, a strones throw away from the beach, open your window and you'll hear the waves breaking on the shoreline. The rooms are sumptious and there's plenty of space inside and outside the guest house to relax and even work. A large well maintained pool perfect for cool summer swims is right next to a bowma for unwinding in an evening. The house and gardens are very secure and the location is superb, sanwiched between Umhlanga village and La Lucia mall. "
The Oyster Box
"Sakhile is such an asset to the hotel, he made the trip so enjoyable and he has the most incredible people skills."
Roseland House
"Everything was great! The staff, the location, the vibrant, safe Davenport area. Two swimming pools. I definitely recommend it in Durban."
Radisson Blu Hotel Durban Umhlanga
"Beautiful hotel and great food. The bed was very comfortable and the staff very friendly. I would recommend this for business or leisure. There is a desk to do work if needed and also reception is quite quick with requests. We had made a last minute booking but they were able to assist instantly. When calling call a few times because the hotel does take a long time before answering they phone, I had to call over 4 times to get through to the hotel."
City Lodge Hotel Durban
"The perfect hotel to stay at when visiting Durban to watch a cricket match at Kingsmead. Room was spotlessly clean and crisp white linen. Very friendly staff and safe parking. Would highly recommend this hotel."
McAllisters on 8th
"I love this place. It is simple and clean. Nice they have tables and chairs outside by the pool to chill at night. Location is great! It is near Florida Rd. So this place is surrounded by restaurants. The staff is super friendly. I forgot to take photos of the room. The room is clean and I love the room design. Great value for money too! Will definitely go back."
Teremok Lodge & Spa
"We had a lovely Anniversary week-end and were so looked after by the Teremok Team. The breakfast was great and the daily muffins on offer were a real treat. We loved the Milkwood room and the beautiful garden. We will see you again!"
Protea Hotel Durban Umhlanga
"Very good location, close to the beach, convenient for eating and drinking, suitable for business trips"
Protea Hotel Karridene Beach
"Been there a few times with the family. I really enjoyed the outdoor facilities (pool, put put, games room). The meals in the restaurant are well prepared and tasty. Problems are that many items that my group ordered from the menu were not available (lamb shank, pizza, etc). The meals also take very long to prepare. The staff are all very friendly and very eager to assist."
Coastlands Musgrave Hotel and Convention Centre
"I spent one night at Coastlands Musgrave and received world class exceptional service and hospitality! I would highly recommend this hotel. The staff were amazing and took special care of me."
