Upon arriving at the hotel, the strong smell in the halls raised concerns, but I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and spaciousness of the room. However, the lingering smell was off-putting throughout my stay. The staff provided good service, although there were some communication hiccups. The location was convenient for exploring nearby attractions, yet the reported issue was not addressed. The dining experience was mostly enjoyable with a good variety, but some dishes were a letdown. Overall, a mix of positive and negative experiences.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and it offered a decent experience overall. The rooms were a bit small and on the pricier side, but they were clean. Despite booking a standard queen room a few days before, the accommodation turned out fine.

The rooms looked clean despite being a bit small and a bit expensive.

The service was somewhat lacking. The staff didn't act promptly when I asked to change the single beds into a double bed, and they seemed inexperienced, even struggling to make a simple omelet.

The location is a major highlight of this hotel. It is within walking distance of the Durban Board Walk and a short drive away from key attractions like Florida Road, the Moses Mabhida Stadium, and UShaka Marine World.

The hotel offers stunning rooms with all the necessary facilities, though the lack of an outside view made us feel a bit confined. The service was friendly and helpful, but there were some issues with following through on promises. The location is amazing, providing tranquility and proximity to North Coast beaches. The dining experience had quality food but could use more variety. Overall, a good option with a few drawbacks.
