111 guests' feedbackThe staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a good location.
Amazing and with great amenities.
I was there for a minimum stay so it suited me perfectly.
Friendly helpful staff. Location is ideal, walking distance to shops and restaurants. Value for your money. Photos are exactly how the room looks, neat and clean.
This lodge was great for our purpose, i.e. 1-night stayover, close to a shopping mall and restaurants.
I absolutely loved my stay, the place is convenient - close to all amenities. I loved that my room is cleaned every day and the breakfast is delicious. The staff is friendly and everyone is willing to assist with anything needed. Thank you to Siyabonga - such a pleasure .
My stay was very peaceful and enjoyable. Staff members were very friendly and helpful.
It was okay and with friendly staff.
It was neat, clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
My stay was amazing.
Had a great stay and was comfortable.
Very good value for money. Definitely not suitable for longer than 2 days.
Awesome and friendly staff.
My stay was superb, the only thing to consider is a bar fridge in the rooms.
I had a great experience.
Relaxing and exciting.
Was fantastic and nice.
Nice, nice, nice, nice, nice.
Great comfortable and value for money services and breakfast.
Was amazing. Though, the only issue I had was that making up the room after a night took a bit long.
Very comfortable and ideally located accommodation. Will definately stay again.
Location is excellent.
The place was easy to find. Very clean. Rooms are comfortable. In all a very pleasant experience.
Awesome experience and lovely people working there. I am definitely booking it for my 1st Comrade Marathon UpRun.
It was overall good. The only thing is that my teenager decided to venture on her own and was left to leave the premises. The guards were great to help me look for her. The reception person was not interested. I think that they should not have allowed her out without checking with me as a preventative measure. The bathroom had only 1 soap and nothing in the shower.
It was a short stay but the service was excellent. Perfect location and friendly staff.
It was good, please have towels placed in rooms for guests.
We asked but they don't have connecting double rooms for us.
I had a peaceful stay and enjoyed a well-deserved rest in the beautifully located lodge.
The room was not very clean. I had requested that the room be swept properly. The guests in other rooms were loud, noisy and drunk.
Not good value for money. Although it was clean and the water was warm, I've had much nicer stays for less. It is also next to Gateway shopping center and sometimes gets a bit noisy, which makes one wonder about the safety.
Was bad, room very small with aircon not working and couldn't open even a window as it's ground floor; people pass there going to the smoking area and look in the window.
Stay was okay. Close to amenities. . WiFi password were inaccurate, wasn't interested in going down and asking. This should simply work. We requested cutlery but we were given plastic utensils. totally uneceptable. Security guard at gate was sometimes not available. We had to go and ask reception to open. This poses a security risk when driving in at night. it's uneceptable. Surroundings in the evening where noisy i. e. people in the streets fighting and cursing.
You get what you pay for and it's a cheap hotel. Their computer systems need upgrading and their staff training. Unpleasant experience of receiving a receipt at clearance which is a prerequisite if you are traveling for business reasons and want to claim back the expense.
Was really decent and clean and very nice place, close to everything. We were so happy, everyone is friendly and the food is very tasty.
Both rooms were neat and clean, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable and the location excellent. Very good value for money.
The room was clean. The staff working there are friendly.
It met all my standards and expectations, extremely happy.
The room was clean. The staff were very friendly.
Clean, tidy and close to everything. If we could, we would have stayed longer!
Nicely located close to Durban for the Comrades and places to eat are within walking distance which makes it very convenient.
Friendly staff who help quickly with any requests.
The place was clean, comfortable and noise free. Loved the buffet breakfast. Service was excellent from check-in to check-out.
Very neat. Friendly staff. Very nice stay I will book again.
Durban for holidays.
It was value for money, tidy and close to shopping center as we didn't have a car.
The place felt like home away from home.
Really enjoyed the hospitality and great atmosphere.
Location and cleanliness.
The staff was awesome. I can single out Siphoserhu, she was great.
Nice location, great place, good stay.
The staff was friendly and very kind. I had an issue with my TV, but the matter was attended to very quickly. Road Lodge Umhlanga Ridge is the best place if you are looking for something that is simple and affordable.
Room was a bit small but managed. All was well, location wow, next to Gateway Mall.
Was a comfortable and conveniently located place to stay. Friendly staff.
100% for what we needed.
Friendly staff. Easy accessibility to nearby malls.
Clean and close to a big mall.
Love the location and the atmosphere.
Worthwhile. Everything was close and comfortable. It's just the parking situation.
The area seems to be very safe, safe to walk, close distance to the beach.
Thankful for air conditioning as the rooms are so small. Definitely intended for single personnel.
At first it was very bad with the air-conditioner not working during load shedding, and it's summer now. Please improve on that.
The room was not ready and I had to wait. I also had to go to the mall. There were ants in the room, so I had to complain to management. Then they cleaned the room. It was our wedding anniversary.
Next to the mall around hotels area.
The stay at the Road Lodge Umhlanga Ridge hotel was so great to the point where we didn't even want to leave, I recommend it.
Staff member at reception was very helpful and welcoming, and housekeeping staff too, very professional and helpful. My room was spotless, most importantly, I felt safe as an individual traveler.
We did enjoy ourselves, with no complaints at all.
Friendly and efficient service.
Close to Gateway Mall as well as several hospitals.
Cleanliness and was very quiet place. Perfect.
I have diabetes and they helped me with my insulin in the freezer overnight. They wanted to know my daughter's name because we had different names. They planned for us to live right next to each other. I was super impressed. Thank you very much!
We had a very nice stay. The bed was just a little too hard, but other than that we have no complaints. The breakfast is top notch.
The staff were efficient, helpful and polite. Could not have asked for better service.
Comfortable rooms, perfectly located at Gateway Mall.
Would recommend. Very central location. Rooms were great. Staff very helpful.
I wish they could have had a microwave and bar fridge in the rooms.
Staff friendly, helpful, good atmosphere felt safe, would recommend, price is also very reasonable.
Would recommend to anyone.
Had a good breakfast. Good customer service. Near shopping center. Walking distance from Gateway Mall. Secure parking for car. Price is fair. Get value for money. Nice clean pool. Nicely chilled.
The stuff is very sufficient and friendly.
Best place to be and everything was convenient.
My room was ready when I arrived. I was told about breakfast unfortunately I did not eat because I was not supposed to eat or drink anything due to my surgical procedure to undergo that day.
Ideal for short stays.
Nice visit by the sea.
Clean, tidy and helpful.
Shower leaks. Aircon leaks.
We arrived around 17h00 on Sunday and they were still busy cleaning rooms. Our room was ready except that there were no towels, this was later rectified. Our biggest problem was that the LED strip light above the bed did not work and was therefore impossible to read. The Receptionist indicated that maintenance would not come until the next day, finally she offered us another room and said "then we can sell your room again". My answer was yes please. and you see a chance to rent out a defective room again just like that. We then found the room next door but that light didn't work either. Neither does the room opposite. I then walked into a room that was still being serviced and that light was working. We decided to stay in the original room and I spoke to the Management on duty the next day and asked them to contact me.
It's perfect for a 1 night stay. The rooms are small and clean. The bath towels need replacing.
Well located, close to motorways, airport and leisure facilities.
Car parking is too little. The car had to spend the night in the Mall parking lot. The aircon in the room does not work. Would like to pay less.
Although the location is good and the place is very neat, I was very disappointed because I made a specific request to them for 2 single beds for both rooms and they didn't do it.
Nice for a quick overnight stay, very tidy and friendly help. Restaurant available, unfortunately breakfast is not included, it's quite expensive and very little underground parking, had to park outside at Gateway, at least they pay your ticket. Check-out is actually 11 o'clock in the morning, not 10 o'clock, so that's fantastic! Rooms and bathrooms are very small and no fridge, but still very tidy and at least the coffee/tea station is there and free WiFi! Overall we had a nice stay.
However, unpleasant experience with drunk residents banging doors all night. Talking very loudly with no regard for others trying to sleep. Next morning they continue the noise and move around the premises with glasses of drink in their hands and no masks. Security pretends they don't see anything.
Rowdy, cigarette smoke in room lingered on from previous customers, no extractor fans in the bathrooms, limited shower accessories.
Shower leaked, no hot water. Very poor customer service.
It was Not enjoyable did not like it at all.
Had everything we needed.
See stars.
Very friendly owner and got a nice treat on Women's Day. Outstanding!
Neat and clean. Friendly staff.
It was nice to stay so close to Gateway. Stay at Road Lodge was very nice.
I'm recommending some improvement in terms of breakfast because the service is poor. The team takes time to refill food and also we had to wait for clean plates and the menu did not meet my expectations and needs.
Unfortunately upon arrival we had to wait almost an hour to check in. They have this silly online system that just covers the covi questions too, but it took so long and there were only 2 people on reception to help. Furthermore, it was comfortable for one night's sleep.
Everything was perfect and the place was hygiene with friendly staff.
I enjoyed my stay. I felt safe, my car was also safe.
Very small for 2 people and may need a bar fridge.
The rooms are too small, not family-friendly, especially if you are traveling with kids.
No bar fridge as expected. The ice machine was forever out of service. The TV channels were changed without our concern. At some stage, all 7 channels showed soccer. We could not view the news.
Staff were friendly, room was cleaned daily. Location was perfect, we were right behind the mall, restaurants just around the corner. Everything is just nearby, we walked most of the time because everything was in close proximity except when we had to go the beach and Ballito. Definitely worth the stay, makes one want to plan another trip to Umhlanga.
