Recommended Guest House at Umhlanga

I was in Durban for a business trip and have booked Five Burnham for one night. I can highly recommend the place: safe neighborhood, beautiful rooms, pool and roof terrace jacuzzi, good breakfast.... There is really nothing I missed and thanks to Hilary I felt like at home way from home.

Good B&B in Umhlanga and suitable for business

5 Burnham is located close to Umhlanga Rocks and the Unhanglanga Ridge Shopping Mall and very close to the coast. It is a quiet neighbourhood, ideal for B&B and suitable for business purposes. Secure off-street parking and en-suite rooms met my requirements. The breakfast is a great start to the day.

Perfect place for peace, quiet, and comfort.

I stayed here for 3 nights and from the moment Hilary personally welcomed me with a smile the whole experience was wonderful.
Every detail was attended to, and every member of the staff was cheerful and attentive.
They even made me exactly the breakfast I requested, though it wasn't on the menu. (Poached smoked haddock, fried eggs and tomatoes - - - delicious!)

My room was spacious, comfortable and had every convenience, including a monkey who came in through a window I had left open too wide.

Nice hotel in an exclusive neighbourhood.

This guesthouse is beautiful with lovely staff. The nearest town, Imhgala Rocks, is starting to resemble a Canary Isles resort with lots of new hotels going up and cheap restaurants.

Avoid room number 2

I was met by a friendly host, however unfortunately, I was allocated room number 2, which was very small (2.5m x 4m) and cramped. Considering the price, this is definitely not value for money. In addition, the air conditioner was not working, which added to the discomfort and worst of all, the water feature right outside the window, ensured that I had no sleep at all. My 5 am alarm finally put me out of my misery.

Great guest house with friendly staff

I have stayed at this guest house a couple of times now and have never been disappointed. The staff can't do enough for you. The rooms have everything you need, kettle, tv and shower. The brie area is a nice touch. I would recommend this guest house to anyone.
