68 guests' feedbackBeautiful area, quiet. Gugu very welcoming and friendly. I was offered coffee or fruit juice on arrival. Very comfortable and spacious accommodation and stylishly fitted. The hardwood slabs are a beautiful addition (bedroom as a countertop and bathroom).
We had a great stay and the hospitality was out of the books and everyone was very friendly.
It was delicious! Gugu is the guest house's greatest asset. We let her know we would be arriving later than the arrival time. She was so kind to wait for us and served the most delicious coffee. Breakfast the next morning was delicious! Gugu goes to great lengths to make you feel welcome and comfortable. The bed slept great and the unit was clean and tidy. We wanted to leave early and Gugu once again served a delicious breakfast. Thank you very much Gugu for your excellent service.
It was a lovely experience staying at Shelbourne Boutique Lodge. The place is beautiful, I only wish the breakfast was included in the price.
See stars.
We booked at Shelbourne Boutique as a stopover for a night. We were very pleased with the overall use of space and the neat, clean accommodation. My family was very comfortable at the lodge. The host was very accommodating.
Had a great stay. Thank you for hosting us.
Definitely recommend the stay and will book here again. Friendly service, neat and safe!
No comment, no comment.
We had a very nice stay. Gugu is a star in hospitality. We will definitely stay with them again.
It was a wonderful place in a great and scenic location. Our host was so friendly, and I would recommend it to anyone.
Service was great. The assistant was very helpful. Definitely value for money!
We had a very nice stay, very clean and tidy, and a friendly welcome.
Pleasant stay with very friendly reception by the manager.
We had a wonderful stay! Great value for money. The kids enjoyed the swimming pool. The team at the lodge truly go above and beyond. The rooms were serviced every morning, and the breakfast was great with generous portions. The parking is, however, a bit of an issue. If you are not comfortable with tight parking spaces, it might pose a challenge. I will stay here again!
Gugu is a very good hostess and was very helpful with questions and special requests. However, there is a problem with disturbing sound coming through the wall from the room next door. The owner will have to do something about it, the people next door were not making noise, they were just talking to each other and it sounded like they were next to us. Had trouble sleeping.
We booked a 2-bedroom unit for 2 nights. Gugu, our host, was great and makes a delicious breakfast, but that's where the good news stops. This is not a boutique lodge as advertised. This is a guest house and not a quiet one. Guests on the upper floor are clearly heard in the downstairs unit. The owner's personal belongings are still in the drawers, the roof leaks, the door handle to the unit is loose and fell off. The pool is dirty. The parking space is an issue - only space for 3 cars max, and we had to do a car shuffle. The place needs some serious attention to advertise itself as a boutique lodge.
We had a very short stop over. Accommodation was clean and comfortable. The only small thing was that we could hear the neighbours' TV and coughing through our dividing wall.
Gugu from reception had excellent service! Welcoming and went the extra mile for us. She made the stay worth it.
Fantastic service. Friendly staff. Gugu always went out of her way to help us and make sure we are happy.
Lovely place to stay and perfectly located for our needs. It would be nice to have a Nespresso machine and some bathroom mats for wet feet. I wouldn't stay there for a holiday as it's not as spacious as I expected, but we were quite happy. It was clean and modern. The host was very pleasant and friendly.
Place is very nice. Pam is fantastic and the location is close to the beach, shopping, and the business district.
The lovely accommodation is complimented by welcoming and attentive staff.
Beautiful place in a great location, I would definitely recommend a stay here! My stay at Shelbourne Boutique Lodge was so lovely. I was well looked after and my room was very comfortable which was really wonderful after full day lectures! Pam and Marcus ensured that I had everything I needed. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would love to visit again.
Pam, the hostess, was wonderful, really enjoyed my stay. Peaceful area.
I have travelled a lot internationally and nationally and rest assured, this type and quality of accommodation and hospitality is not often found anywhere. Pam's breakfast is the best you'll find for the price. Top value for money. An excellent place to stay.
My stay was a short one however I felt very comfortable from the moment I arrived. The property is well kept with good hospitality.
Reception was very good. Received by the housekeeper who welcomed us with a cold glass of juice. Certain requests that were made were met.
Service was great, friendly and helpful.
On our way to our final destination, MSC only for 1 night. The manager/owner is at her post, spontaneous, friendly and eager to provide assistance.
See stars.
Comfortable and suited for the required purpose. Sleepover venue. The parking is very limited with no protection from the sun. Venue suited for short visits only.
Good place to stay at for business travels where breakfast is provided. Nice area with lots of birdlife around. Parking for larger vehicles might be a bit challenging if the BnB is full. Enjoyed our stay. Friendly staff.
They advertise that they accept pets, but were not pleased when we arrived with our puppy.
Privacy was okay.
1st we got moved to a shared suite while we actually booked 2 totally separate rooms (one top floor and one by pool). 2nd the place was filthy, mould in bathrooms, dirty bedding, dirty curtains (meant to be white but grey cause it wasn't washed since who knows, food spatter on roof! Wish I could show what windows look like behind stove and utensils, mugs and jugs not washed properly, rims and food still in and on them.
I can definitely recommend Selbourne Lodge. The air-con in the room was a big plus and the bed sleeps like a dream.
Also in a very safe neighbourhood and close to the mall and the beach. We really enjoyed our stay and the place is really clean.
Great location, close to amenities and the nearby beach is 100% clean and safe. The owner and helpers are also awesome. Had a great stay.
Very comfortable, neat. Services were great, staff very friendly, would love to go there on holiday again and recommend to friends and family.
Excellent stay, friendly owner and very helpful.
Very centrally located and Lindsay made us feel very welcome. Rooms are spacious enough and comfortably furnished. Little space for preparing meals, but lovely outdoor tables for serving. Will go again for sure.
Close to all surroundings, malls, Ushaka Marine World. Beach and restaurants. Best location, service is excellent and a beautiful view in the morning.
Beautiful loft room, so private and what a wonderful few days.
Would definitely make use of Shelbourne again.
I enjoyed the night sounds and the tranquility.
Was an exceptional stay, best ever.
The guest house is very central and close to La Lucia and Westgate's shopping centres, Umhlanga promenade and the M4 highway exit. The unit had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. The room was cleaned every day to the highest standard. I will definitely stay there again.
Great stay. We enjoyed the stay, but was too short.
Shelbourne is most definitely an amazing home for a holiday! Anyone would enjoy their stay there.
Brilliant accommodation, and the location is very good. Jacuzzi was brilliant. Strongly recommend it. The owner was extremely friendly and helpful.
It is well maintained and close to a wide variety of attractions. We had a wonderful stay and the owner was very friendly and helpful! Highly recommended!
See rating.
Would recommend anyone to stay here, they made us feel so at ease that I would recommend any family to stay here. The staff is super friendly. Book with peace of mind, because you're going to get what you see, and more.
Lindsay is the best host ever. Went out of his way to accomodate us athletes before TriRock, VERY early morning breakfasts!
See the stars below.
Shelbourne Lodge has a fantastic location and a beautiful sea view from the side. The rooms and bathrooms are large and the nautical theme is beautiful. The owner is super friendly. It is also very safe and our apartment was cleaned every day, even on a public holiday! "To say I was impressed was an understatement!". The only thing our apartment needed was a DVD player for the days it rained.
The place is clean and in a nice suburb, but the parking is too small if there are many guest booked in at the same time. So, overall it's a decent place.
One can relax wonderfully in the unit or next to the pool, but keep an eye on children as the pool is open. The owner is very interested and accommodating, and makes a delicious breakfast on request (at extra cost). The units are tidied up and cleaned daily, which really makes it feel like a vacation! There is not much of a sea view.
The only problem encountered is with parking which is very clever. The heat sensitivity was also very high and the landlord will have to turn on the air conditioner ahead of time to cool the unit. It takes too long when you arrive to even turn it on.
We really enjoyed our stay. Everything is beautifully clean and tidy and very private. Everyone is very friendly and the view very beautiful. The breakfast served in the room is also very good. We will definitely stay there again. We couldn't fault anything. Thank you very much!
A brilliant place to stay at, run by brilliant people and in a brilliant location.
We stayed at Shelbourne Lodge during Indaba. This self-catering unit is adequate for a short stay. Clean and bright. There are only 2 rooms and at the time they were being booking separately. There is a well equipped kitchen although small and TV's in both rooms and in the lounge. Close to the M4 and also Gateway and La Lucia Malls. We would have appreciated a better welcome after a long drive. We arrive in the poring rain and were not offer an umbrella to get to our accommodation. The person greeting us stood watching under shelter while we struggled to park and get our luggage. We had hoped that there would be an offer of help with our very heavy luggage and would expect an establishment showing a 3-star grading on their own website to do so. I got the feeling that she couldn't wait to get away! Not sure I would stay here again due the steep stairs, the luggage problem, and the wishy-washy welcome. Hopefully this will be rectified.
Shelbourne lodge is the best stay I've had compered to other lodges, and it is very clean and safe.
Wonderful in every regard.
We enjoyed our stay at Shelbourne Lodge. It was very quiet and close to everything. Parking is a bit to small, but everything else was very good.
Well located, safe, and very good service.
I will go back there again.
