An excellent stay and anticipate a return in 2014. Tosca runs a fantastic operation and gets to know eachg one of her guests. She frequently asks if everything is OK just to ensure that all is good. Her guests are her priority and it clearly shows. Really enjoyed getting to know Tosca's mother who greeted you every morning by name... More

Once again we had a fantastic stay at Ridgeview. Many thanks to Tosca for allowing us to have an early checkin despite the lodge being frantically busy and for also taking care of the wine we shipped up a few days earlier. Your breakfasts are a real winner and I must take my hat off to you for your consistency.... More

Thank you for the most awesome hospitality and the "home away from home" feel! You made me feel very comfortable and that I would be welcome back anytime. The room that I had was beautiful and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. I will definitely be back! Thank you once again.

Our stay was for only one night, but we were sorry that our visit did not allow us a longer period at Ridgeview Lodge as it was just perfect for us. The rooms were large and very clean (insect free) and we were able to have a comfortable good nights sleep after a long journey. The breakfast the next morning... More

Very dissapointed about a few things. Firstly I have booked 4 rooms paid and confirmed 3 times but apparently charged for only 3, and when we got there was presented with another bill for the fourth room. Tosca was not very accommodating about her error she has made. At the end we had to pay and explain to my friends... More

The Ridgeview Lodge is a superb place to stay in Durban. The hotel is lovely, the breakfast is excellent and the owners are very friendly and helpful. The location is very good as we hired a car to get around. I would certainly recommend this hotel.

We really enjoyed our stay here. It has a great atmosphere, the facilities are superb and Gary and Tosca are great hosts. The breakfast was excellent! It is very conveniently located for the Entebeni Life Hospital and only a few minutes to Downtown Durban, whilst being in a very pleasant part of the city. Recommended.
