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.

Although Durban CBD has gone to the dogs, this little isolated oasis is lovely to stay at. The rooms and bedding was clean, the staff was very helpful and accommodating, the food was good, and the pool was clean and nice to use in the Durban heat and humidity. It is close to the people mover buses. After our boat cruise we were quite sick, and since the lodge had lots of open rooms at that time, they let us book in a lot earlier than usual was really appreciated. The sleeper couch was a bit hard, but that was the only thing we could fault. it was also very affordable for December holidays. Our personal experience there was really good. 9/10.

Well located, very affordable, great place to stay. However, there was no complementary drinking water provided in the rooms. We had also asked for an airport shuttle service but the email apparently went missing. A taxi was booked for us and we had to pay for it.

It was a good stay ,one knows what to expect from a City Lodge, and, they deliver. The stay pleasant, the staff are great, friendly and efficient. The room is good, probably needs an upgrade (my humble opinion), the bed is comfortable and the bathroom is adequate. The shower door did not shut fully and was somewhat bothersome. I did not have time for breakfast, but, I know that the breakfast here is good. Decent variety, very fresh and really nice staff to give you a good start to your day. I would stay here again, it's a good choice at a fairly reasonable price.
