Durban


This upmarket boutique hotel is filled with clipped accents and smart rooms of the ‘heavy drapes and floral furnishings’ variety, around a pretty paved and green courtyard area. It's in a terrific location at the bottom of Florida Rd and with eating and drinking places galore a short walk away.
