Southern Sun Elangeni & Maharani ★★★★

📍 63 Snell Parade, North Beach, Durban

"Worst experience ever when it comes to their breakfast set up!! I’m always opting to stay here when I travel with family or big friend groups. I went there on the weekend of the 28th of February 2026 and with friends and family. Just 6 of us, breakfast a Guy Named Teboho told us to split because they won’t be able to accommodate six people together! Hello why would we want to eat separately on a getaway! We complained he came with the manager to apologise and we got the table. This weekend we went again this time 8 of us same Teboho says the same thing! And his colleague manages to get us a table. Mind you I had told my husband to not go there and we agreed on giving them one last chance. Suggestion - management have a word with Teboho because he is so rude and dismissive !"

"An absolute gem of a hotel in Durban! The hospitality was 100% top-tier from the moment we arrived, every staff member went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, especially with organizing a special birthday surprise for my son.

Southern Sun Elangeni & Maharani ★★★★
"Dear Hotel Manager and Maintenance Manager, My recent stay at the Elangeni Hotel was unacceptable. • Room Type: Elangeni Superior Room, 1 King Bed I checked into Room 1516 on Friday. The room was noticeably hotter than the passage and foyer. By Saturday morning it felt like a sauna. I called the front desk multiple times from the room with no answer and eventually had to use my own mobile to get through. Maintenance came up, claimed to have fixed the aircon, but nothing changed – and there was no follow-up. I was then moved to Room 1116, where the aircon was just as bad. At no point did anyone treat this with urgency or take ownership of ensuring I was comfortable. For a hotel of your supposed standard, this experience is far below what is acceptable. My comfort, rest, and time were all compromised."

Road Lodge Durban ★
"AI felt suffocated. It’s way too small. Not even enough room to move around and the smaller windows made the room feel much smaller. The service was amazing. The staff were great and very hospitable. But my room felt like a carton."

The Balmoral - Halaal ★★★★
"I spent my birthday at the Balmoral hotel 24th April to 28th April 2926. It was absolutely fantastic. I met such helpful staff including thir Managers each one was friendly and kind. The hotel is old fashioned but feels so homely and comfortable. If you need anything to be sorted out just ask and the staff are very efficient. Breakfast was nice they have a range of items you can choose from . Tea cups should be a bit bigger 😋 Thanks once again for a lovely stay"
