Really no time this first visit to see any tourist sites - did visit the Pavilion Shopping Centre. Return visit after the cruise will permit a bit of time for tourism.

3/5 - Okay

I went swimming in the Indian ocean, making it the 3rd ocean I've swam in. Victoria Street market was interesting, big culture shock to me, but was a memorable experience. Other than that, I don't think I'll ever go back to Durban.
3/5 - Okay

Visited at the start of our trip to reset our body clocks. The hotel and amenities were fantastic! Highly recommend! Durban was a little dodgy (definitely no walking after dark).
4/5 - Good
Verified traveler
We loved the beachfront but unfortunately the rest of the city is very run down. Stick to the Beachfront and it's a great environment.
1/5 - Terrible
Verified traveler
The CBD is filthy and certainly not a safe place to be. The beaches needs a proper clean up.
3/5 - Okay
Verified traveler
Another good thing about the hotel is that it had secure parking I didn’t see that with some other hotels I liked to stay at that are close to the beach it’s either to pay an extra fee for parking or parking is on the street
