We have always enjoyed visiting Salt Rock Hotel. Unfortunately on Mothers Day, the price is understandably more expensive, yet you would expect a large variety for your money. For R180 per head, you only got 1 roast, 1 mixed vegetable, rice, curry, a pasta dish. There was a soup and very few starters. The dessert table was also a disappointment...... More

Close to a large amount of golf courses, all within 30 Minutes drive! As we got there early 08h00 am, the freindly staff put our luggage in safe keeping.... More

This lovely old hotel is our favorite place to enjoy tasty curry dishes in Northern Kzn. The restaurant is very popular with locals and visitors from the Highveld. Unfortunately, there is a downside, and Salt Rock hotel management would do well to address this problem. During peak season and holiday weekends they "close" the restaurant to all visitors except hotel... More

We spent five nights at the Salt Rock Hotel and had a wonderful stay. The dinner, bed and breakfast option makes this a fantastic hotel for families. The food was tasty and although the waiters were laid back (as one would expect on the coast), they were helpful and friendly. I stayed in this hotel as a child, and was... More

My wife and I have just had a magnificent holiday at this hotel. It was ideal for us as it came at the end of a month travelling around and this promised us a rest in good surroundings. This hotel dates back to the 1930's but has been expanded over the years and they are manfully upgrading the rooms as... More

It's is exactly what we got! Fortunately we had fantastic weather and we were able to spend it either on the beach or around the pool... More

We were there Yesterday (January 9th, 2013). I had made a provisional reservation by phone that afternoon to stay with my family of 5 for a couple of nights at this beach resort. When we entered we asked the security guard to have a look around first to make sure we wanted to stay here. He let us through and... More

Imagine my surprise when I was told the rooms had all been renovated, when I had just commented to my friend it was fine but basic! No air con, why?? The staff have been there years, which is probably half the problem to their lackadaisical attitude. The food was very strange and seemed to run out quickly. However, and here... More
