The Royal Hotel by Coastlands Hotels & Resorts

Durban City Center Durban|0.43km from Port Natal Maritime Museum
My wife and I stayed at the Royal Hotel overnight, during March, 2022. We used an elevator to get to our room, and noticed a large dead cockroach lying at the entrance to one of the three elevators. The entrance carpet of our room was damp, and the other carpets and easy chairs were shabby. The curtains were not ironed, and the windows were smudgy. The bathroom basin had a good share of mould around the top of the basin. The room fridge was totally empty, and after our trip to get to the hotel, we were thirsty, but there was no water bottles in the fridge. We complained at the front desk,and afterwards one of the staff brought us two small bottles of water and charged us Twenty-Five Rand per small bottle. There was a kettle in the room, with tea/coffee making facilities. The bedside lamps were strange, and were not matching at all. The shower and toilet were in good working condition. We took the elevator at about 09h30 the next morning to check out, and the cockroach of the night before, was still in front of one of the elevators. We decided to order coffee and scones at the coffee shop. The picture on their website displays a cake stand, filled with a variety of delicious cakes. The cake stand was empty. It seems that the regular business lounges were closed. The tragedy of this experience is that The Durban Royal Hotel has always been, over many years, one of the most famous and popular hotels in Durban, that was regularly used by businessmen and international travellers to Durban. It appears that there was a great lack of care or concern for guests at this hotel during our stay. This hotel is located in the central gardens square of Durban, and could be unsafe to walk around outside the hotel? Numerous tramps and beggars hang around. Sadly, we will not be staying there again.

Riviera Hotel Durban

Durban City Center Durban|0.74km from Port Natal Maritime Museum
Dear Sir/ Madam My family recently stayed at your ”hotel” Riviera Hotel 127 Victoria Embankment, Esplanade, Durban, 4001, on the weekend of Easter. I was horrified at the service we received. The General Manager/ or Front Office Manager, Hussain, refused to state his designation to us and lacks the number one skill needed by management, LISTEN. The service from the receptionist, lacked enthusiasm and courtesy. We were allocated a room that would be perfect for a horror movie. 1.The carpet in the room was laced with black dust, as though it hadn't been cleaned in weeks, to which Hussain's response was, ”we are situated on the coast, and dust comes in from a recent storm”. 2.The towels in the bathroom, which were once white, looked ready to be disposed off. We used our own face clothes and bought our own towels. 3.Nobody helped us to our room 105, we explored almost all the floors of the hotel, with our daughter who is mobility-impaired (disability walking). 4.We didn't get to watch the TV, as the signal was not strong enough, and hardly visible. 5.The rooms are extremely noisy, at all hours of the night. 6.There was no cutlery, microwave, fridge in the room, and only two glasses to service a family of 5. Needless to say I have advised my family and friends, never to stay at this hotel, it's a headache, zero hospitality experience, it will ruin their vacation. Dissatisfied Customer

Parade Hotel

Durban Beachfront
At check-in we were welcomed warmly by Mr. Mhize :) Our room was nicely done but deep cleaning is highly needed I mean even bathroom walls have stains which goes to show that training at housekeeping is highly needed. It was not my first time staying at the hotel. Previously we enjoyed breakfast especially when there was an Indian girl working there. This time around their service was just so disgusting!!!! In the first morning I informed the chef in charge that I'm vegetarian and asked if she could prepare anything for me and rudely told me that ”I don't know of you except of one guest that I prepared for, reception didn't inform me about you! So I'll give you something little from what I prepared for the vegetarian guest that I know of.” And indeed she gave me unappetizing less than a fist of fried chips. So much talk for fried potatoes! I am a paying guest and you don't talk to guests like that. When I went to go get something else on the buffet another chef asked me ”where is the plate you were using before?” REALLY????? I'm so disgusted and disappointed by their service. The chef in charge also kept shouting at a newly employed lady ordering her around with no respect! If you have no respect for your staff do that back of house not in front of guests it's belittling us and lowering your standards. On the second day we hoped for better but it was worse! We dished up our first rounds and I was made mushrooms only, even after I informed them I'd be returning. I believe there's so much more that could've being prepared if the love and passion was there. I went to go dishup again for my fiance and the chef first served the guest behind me and ignored me as if I was not standing in front of her, I saw her leaving one egg and I asked for two and she said ”second rounds are not allowed for eggs, that is why I'm making you one.” In my whole history of working and staying in hotels never in my entire life have I ever heard of such!!! Breakfast was decreased by an hour. Is it so much work to give good service in ONE HOUR?!

Definitely an amazing hotel. The hotel was worth every cent. I loved that I was able to get an international plug when I needed one and that the staff was always willing to help. The breakfast OMG!!! Never seen or tasted anything more delicious. The variety of food and service from staff was a absolutely exceptional !!!!

I really enjoyed my stay. I hope the hotel updates it’s system so that confirmation emails from trip.com don’t go to their spam. I was really annoyed when I had to hold the line and kept calling them. They couldn’t find my booking, only to find it in their spam emails.
