My latest visit was acceptable however a few pointers.... 1. Consistency is key - housekeeping is erratic somedays you receive toiletries etc and somedays the old containers get left in your room etc. 2. Room service needs to pay attention to detail - if a guest requests a specific item and it is agreed to at the time of order... More

Great service (special early breakfast for runner, ice on hand next to the lift back to your room at the end of the race) and the best location for the Comrades Expo. I'd recommend this hotel for those looking for a couple attending Comrades.

Picked as running Comrades and this is the official hotel. Nothing exceptional in the hotel but location next to start was good. The Internet is really expensive and was not included in room price. Good breakfast buffet.

We were very excited to stay at the Hilton in Durban. Its not by any means a 'cheap' hotel so we imagined it would be a great stay. All in all a fairly average stay. Apart from being put in what seemed to be someone elses room (it was a smoking floor and the welcome letter indicated it was intended... More

The high rating is because it is probably the best hotel in town and anyway is by far better than the ones I've seen in my previous visit. Having said this, i was slightly surprised and disappointed. General is not up to a standard to you would expect at an Hilton hotel. The gym is pretty small and so is... More

First of all, this was a booking made for me and my boyfriend who was running the comrades, this past weekend. He stayed there before and always told me what a great experience he has had. I really expected to have the most amazing experience. As being in this industry myself, what a bad experience it was “service wise” and... More

We chose to stay at the Hilton in Durban while running the Comrades Marathon. Everything was brilliant about the stay. Only minor problem was that the breakfast for the runners before Comrades wasn't as good as the one we had last year at the Stay easy in Maritzburg. The breakfast served in the restaurant was excellent.

I've frequented several hotels in Durbs and find the Hilton the most convenient for Comrades Marathon and an overall great value. Can't beat the central location, attentive service, festive atmosphere, and sublime food and libations. The breakfast buffet is vast and sumptuous! If you are running Comrades, the Hilton is THE hotel.

I spent two nights at the Hilton Durban last year. The staff are very friendly right from the doorman who wears over 100 buttons and pins from around the globe as part of his uniform, to the reception staff and Breakfast attendants. If you are a business traveller attending a conference or expo, you will enjoy the close proximity of... More
