Creating Memories…

We had an amazing time and stay at Quarters. Apart from a very comfortable stay, the staff was attentive and atuned to our every need. Breakfast is made to order, fresh and wholesome. Faculties are top class and rooms are spacious, warm and inviting. COVID regulations are followed and we felt safe and protected. Thank you for a great stay and creating memories

The rooms were very comfortable, clean and spacious. The on-site security made us feel safe and our car parked within the security perimeter was comforting. The coffee station needs some upgrading as the coffee ain’t that nice. Due to COVID, we had to service the room, which is totally understandable, and ok

The staff here were so helpful and really made the trip. The hotel is now getting a little tired, especially the bathrooms however the fridge was the coldest and best fridge I have had in a hotel for years. The air con is a little loud. Amenities were difficult to judge as the restaurant was closed due to covid. Would stay here again,

Schöne historische Gebäude mit Schwächen

Die Hotelanlage selbst ist sehr schön. Es sind 3 alte Kolonialgebäude auf einem kleinen Grundstück mitten in der Stadt. Das ist gleichzeitig auch der Nachteil des Hotels: Die meisten Zimmer sind sehr laut, da direkt zu den Hauptstraßen hin gelegen. Die meisten Zimmer sind auch sehr klein. Für große Menschen mit Platzangst eher ungeeignet.

Our stay at the quarters hotel was overall pleasant. The property is a nice, victorian home. The location on Florida Road is very convenient. The staff is very friendly and the breakfast was good. However, they were difficult to get ahold of. We called the property multiple times throughout the day of our arrival with a question about the stay but no one ever answered the phone and there was no way to leave a message. Additionally, Florida Road can be loud late into the night, especially on a Friday or Saturday. Overall, a lovely place. I would consider staying there again

Great hotel and fantastic breakfast. You can walk out to lots of bars and restaurants which is good but the downside to that is there can be some noise (even on a Sunday!).

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Quarters Hotel Florida Road. My room was clean, comfortable, pretty, and quiet. I appreciated the lovely sitting room next to my room, as well as the nice, breezy balcony area. Hotel staff members were personable, helpful, and professional. The breakfast each morning was fantastic, and the hotel is conveniently located to restaurants within walking distance on Florida Road, which seems relatively safe. Thanks so much for a great stay.

Excellent two day stay here.

This is a very high quality hotel and in my opinion the best hotel in Durban. It's in a beautiful building located on the best street in Durban. I had a very nice two day stay here. The room was very comfortable and the breakfast was excellent. The staff who work here are top-notch. They were extremely helpful and very warm and welcoming. The only thing that needs improvement however is the cleanliness. The carpets in my room were in desperate need of a good vacuuming, and the windows needed to be cleaned as well. I would actually go as far as to replace the carpets completely in the hotel. Other than that though, this is a very high quality hotel that has very friendly staff, excellent food, and in a PERFECT location. I would definitely stay here again!
