The rooms they offer were reasonably priced and recently refurbished with comfortable beds and fire alarm, as for instance. There were a microwave oven and an electric kettle upon arrival. The hotel was placed in the very central location next time please give us a better view LOL "Riverside.

Great relaxing and modern place, I really enjoyed extremely helpful personnel.
I had a thoroughly enjoyable experience here, everything was perfect, the location was ideal near Durban for business or pleasure, an otherwise amazing establishment, and the garden with good view. Hopefully the room was well-equipped and beautifully decorated with stunning view and aircon, for example.

Had nicely decorated and well-kept room, delicious breakfasts, you guys rock!
The location of the hotel was easy and ideal - not too far away from a public garden. Booked a room with BREATHTAKING views, and the staff were professional and well-trained people especially the porter.
