Hotels with Gym and Fitness Centre in Durban

I'm sorry but this place may look nice on pictures and superficially nice but everything is cheap and service is quite poor. The plastic wood everywhere is tacky, windows are so thin you hear all the traffic on the roadside while on the yard side there is LOUD partying til very late. The staff assured me it would stop at 23, but this was not true, it continued til 2 am. The staff in reception seems truly clueless at most things, this is probably because they have no training and hardly any salary. The poor manager on duty seems to constantly have to rush and make right the various mistakes made, she seems to do nothing but apologise all day to costumers. The owners of the hotel clearly prioritise their own pockets over providing service. A few examples of cheapness: 1.No folder with information in the room - I am referred to the website. The tebsite says iron and ironing board in your room. I looked and looked, couldn't find it. I called reception and they said I can fetch it from the lobby (another hotel would have brought it to my room...). I went down to lobby, carried the ironing board up in the elevator etc. to my room and then found the iron to be old and dirty, it dirtied my blouse and the steam function didn't work properly there was just a lot of water coming out, leaving water stains on my other top.... Just replace the iron when it is old? If a guest calls, deliver the iron and board to the room? Change the information on the web... not so difficult things if you want to make a good impression.. 2.My collegue had a paid and booked transport to the airport that had been forgotten by the staff despite that he reminded them a few hours before and they ensured him it was settled. Once it was due - no transport. He nearly missed his flight. The poor manager lady had to book an uber for him and give him cash... 3. I gave them laundry one morning, thinking it would be finished by the evening or the next day, like all other hotels. By next evening it was not finished (it was 3 small items, no dry cleaning). They seemed to be looking for it as if they had lost it. When I was checking out 2 days after handing in the laundry, the woman in reception admitted one of my tops had been lost... When I complained about this and point 4 below, they did offer compensation, but I had to send a recepit of a new top and fill in forms etc. hassle. 4. After a long week of work staying at this hotel I was looking forward to sleeping 8 hours until leaving on Saturday. The Friday partying however started already at 4 pm with a DJ. I had the room facing the courtyard and asked the manager how long the partying would continue. Oh we have a curfew at eleven in Durban, she said, it will definitely be quiet after that! I’m not from South Africa so I believed her and felt OK I can sleep from 11 to 8 am, that’s OK. My room turned out to be just above the party and it felt like it was IN my room. I was trying to finalise my work from 21.00 to 23.00 with the boomi

I went with my fiance to celebrate my birthday with her the sea breeze is amazing it's breath of fresh air they even have the gym inside I just love the experience the food is amazing also the house keeping service is a top notch I love that it's only few meters away to the beach

Service was awesome. Room was clean and neat however the toilet and shower area was just a little too small and not a lot of privacy.

Great employees who takes pride in their work and provide superior service and experience to the guests. The location of the hotel is closer to my areas where I was doing business and easy access to many interesting destinations within Durban Central. I would not hesitate to recommend to family and friends also colleagues.

I first stayed here in 2013. I revisited this hotel in 2022 as I needed a last minute accommodation to attend a colleagues wedding. I was surprised to find that hotel hasn't changed much. We booked family room, we had a beautiful view of pier though, staff was friendly. However we were cautious not to walk around freely in the area as it's been known to be in an unsafe area. As soon as you step out of the building or even cross the street, you're in an unsafe zone. Even in daylight you aren't safe there. Food was good but limited for vegatarians. Breakfast packs are provided on checkout, which is ideal for those returning to work that day. No candles and matches in rooms and this is concerning during loadshedding or power outages. Hotel is currently upgrading their parking but still hotel is placed in an unsafe area so one needs to be cautious.

We are currently staying at maharani hotel since our arrival last we week we had a complete disaster 1st when they allowcated our room to us 1st 2 days our shower was leaking when we complained manager says its bcoz of evaporation mist in the shower thats why the shower gathers a puddle of water outside our bathroom not even inside.....2ndly after resolving our shower issue we are currently facing no room service nor are we receiving clean towels everyday unless we phone n fight with them....than having a handicapped child we are locked outside our rooms for some reason our cards not working this happened 3rd time today my hubby had to leave my handicapped child on the floor and go ro reception to fix the car issue there is no handicapped parking at maharani only at elangeni for that reason we couldnt bring her wheelchair up with us.....when u contact the room service or duty on manager line they dont answer.....maharani has lost its standard the service is poor and paying such a hefty amount we must fight for what we were suppose to receive ......basic service and customer service....

well! The best hotel in the class, the neighborhood is very safe, fast food, Chinese and Western food are available, the beach is very beautiful, but a bit expensive, but it is worth it, five-star worth experiencing
