“This hotel strikes me as a practical choice for both business and leisure stays in Durban, with its meeting facilities and proximity to attractions like Durban ICC and Kings Park Stadium. The rooftop terrace and pool add a welcome leisure element. While some refurbishment may be due, attentive staff and harbor views from higher floors, in my opinion, make this a worthwhile option.”
