268 on Ridge Guesthouse
7.8 (7 reviews)

268 on Ridge Guesthouse ★★★

📍 268 Mazisi Kunene Rd, Berea

"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"

Royal Palm Hotel ★★★★

📍 6 Palm Blvd, Umhlanga

The Edward ★★★★

📍 149 Marine Parade, Durban

"It's a hotel in the beachfront, a bit of outdated decor but the staff was great, room service was spectacular and we had a spacious room and very comfortable bed. I don't know what's up with hotels not providing a tv with clear channels and programmes?? The quality picture is terrible, we use smart tvs now I don't know why they aren't upgrading to that."

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 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."
