The hotel didn't have a back up generator very inconvenient due to daily loadshedding which affects all of S. Africa. The smart TV. is reliable on an effective WiFi, which unfortunately was not the case. Very frustrating.

High level of unprofessionalism.Poor service.

Wasted 3 hour trying to sort a misunderstanding between pavillion hotel and agent.I did recieve a confirmation that everything was in order because I booked two months before my stay.Disappoining,my booking was canceled at the last hour.I ended up crying alone in the reception area.I was late for the show.The matter was sorted after 3 hours of endless phone calls and unnecessary arguments.I was so hurt.Improve your communication skills between you and agents.

Filthy place

The trip was terrible, it made my son not to enjoy his first time in Durban. The bathroom had a very bad smell that i told the staff to fix but nothing was done. I didnt even want to order food at the restaurant, because the smell was too much. I even bought an airfresher but it did not help. It was the worst hotel experience ever. All the way from Limpopo to be disappointed like that. Im not a happy customer. Ill never recommend it to anyone. Waste of my money.

Outdated but reasonably priced

The hotel is a walking distance from the beach. Its located in a busy street so it can be quiet noisy in the evening. The windows looked like they haven't been cleaned in years and the overall look is outdated. The price was very reasonable
