Recensioni su Hilton Durban

We had been looking forward to visiting newly reopened Hilton Durban, for some time and finally did so two weeks ago. Although only 100 of the 324 rooms are currently in use, as part of a phased reopening of the entire hotel, the warm welcoming atmosphere and personalised service exceeded our expectations! The hotel is ideally located in the heart of Durban, bordering on the Durban International Convention Centre, incredibly well positioned opposite the Durban Exhibition Centre and not too far from the Durban Beach Front. The rooms are beautifully designed with modern amenities, including comfortable beds, an HDTV, and complimentary WiFi1. Their executive suites are top notch and we also received complimentary access to the Business Lounge, with complimentary drinks and snacks, and top class service from Siphiwe. The staff at the Hilton Durban were exceptionally receptive and attentive. Mluleki was kind and happy to go over and beyond to guarantee us a memorable stay. But then again, the Hilton is well regarded for its outstanding service. The hotel's amenities, such as the outdoor swimming pool and fitness centre proved to be a great attraction for young and old, especially the pool and outdoor chilling area which is a popular spot for unwinding after a busy day of exploring the city.

The rooms were fabulous. Top quality no question. No scratches, chips, dents, no tired furniture. All near as a new pin. Nice amenities in the bathroom. Well appointed gymnasium. However the swimming pool was too cold. I do a lot of swimming and I would suggest that it was about 18°. I come from a colder climate so that can still work for me but for most people, unless they are from northern Europe, they will be disappointed. The reason is obvious. It gets very little sun. This is a design fault with replacement of the pool. And presumably to save costs, the pool is not heated. As a result I was the only one there. We had room service and this is where we got a surprise. There was no alcohol in the hotel . None. I thought I was in the Middle East. Some issue with licenses. The food was a pleasant surprise though. Also, the parking was inexpensive and as always in SA the staff are very helpful and friendly. By the way, their ultra fast Wi-Fi on their executive floor was a good example of hyperbole. It was not fast at all.

A terrible property and terrible staff. The security guard provides you the key on an envelop, you don’t need to provide any information. When you arrive in your rooms it’s terrible smelly and shockingly poor. No water, no diamond status benefits provided dirty toilet and used linen. I called front desk to complain about not recognised as a diamond member told if should leave that was shortly before midnight I told him that’s “bull????” an altercation took place and had to leave the hotel before midnight Emails and messages content general manager and Hilton remain unanswered and not even acknowledged. It’s terrible avoid at any cost
