• Kholeka (10/5): - We had a very good stay at Road Lodge Durban. The welcome by Slash and team was super, especially that we were granted the early check-in as they could see we were tired from a cruise. Thank you👏
• Francis (8/5): Mr - It was good that I got a smoking room. However, there was no ashtray in the room, and I had to obtain a used Coke can as an ashtray. At the reception, there is a stench, I think, from the laundry. It is not good at all, you should see how to make that one go. The air conditioner in my room was not responding to the remote; maybe I do not know how to operate it, so an instruction manual would come in handy. Otherwise, I liked the place.
• Maphelo (8/5): Birthday blast - It was very clean, room service was up to scratch, the staff were friendly and they kept the room clean at all times.....one of the staff members by the name of Yenziwe went an extra mile to organise a surprise gift package for my partner as she was celebrating her birthday on the 16th
• Thabo (2/5): - Smelling cigarette
• Mi (2/5): Legalised Brothel - it was absolutely appalling. Doors do not lock. Prostitution is rampant no consideration of guests. the bedding is filthy. Showers are appalling. Not a place to take kids. The whole visit was totally disgusting. n

• Gareth (10/5): Comrades weekend - Was a comfortable experience which helped my build up for Comrades marathon
• Fikile (6/5): - Service was good, and the room was clean, however the doors are very loud when they close them. It was constant banging, disturbing peace and it’s annoying. Number 2, you restricted windows on the ground floor, you don’t put air freshers, how do you expect us to us the toilet and still be in the same room? Number 3 no handwash, or sanitizer, no shower cap
• Kamal Sammy (8/5): - bathroom was difficult to share because it was me and my daughter and the Shower is just a glass door. Window was half broken

• Phiona (6/5): - Good location Clean environment Good security I wasn't happy about getting a smoking room instead of a non-smoking room that I had requested. A fridge in the room would be nice

• Verified traveler (6/5): Basic and Simple - Water pressure in the shower was intermittent. In room desk phone has unresponsive buttons. Other guests were noisy and no one from the hotel noted or addressed. Check in was good, no lift so luggage became a problem we had to leave some of the items in the car. Housekeeping was good.

• Lindamkhonto Gah (10/5): Better than fourteen years ago😊 - It was as good as I last worked here part time fourteen years ago in the times of Mr. D. I was pleased to see Ashraf, a humble and welcoming person. As for the person who once worked here, I expected safety, cleanliness and confortability and yes I must say, they haven't deopped the standard, I believe they are leveling up the best service delivery. I was happy to return and sleep over here. This is the very best lodge in Durban!!!!!! Road Lodge Durban rocks and that's a fact!!!!!
