Elizabeth
Staff were wonderful. Friendly, courteous, professional. The room was clean, quiet and very comfortable. Will happily recommend Town Lodge Umhlanga!
Stuart
It is so sad that a hotel like this in a good area is so terribly let down by the restaurant.
From the bad service to the almost burnt food and not getting the bill and being told I could sign and pay on checkout the next morning. Only to be woken by a telephone call at 10PM (being up from 3:30 in the morning) to ask about when I will settle the bill.
When I checked out and spoke to the GM about it and eanted to pay, she could not even get them to calculate the bill properly. Only way out is that she said I did not have to pay the bill.
So, IF I ever stay at that hotel again, I most certainly will not be eating at their restaurant.

Aircons adjacent to Lodge far too noisy
The hotel was great wrt service, its modern layout/decor and the condition of the rooms, however the street facing room was facing onto a bulding /down from one whose aircon sounded like a fleet of jet engines, it was extremely loud and went on the whole night, so sadly, no sleep or rest was achieved
Douglas
Good budget hotel
Donah L
It’s what I expected of Town Lodge really. The accommodation is all good. But the dining experience was pretty poor. The buffet didn’t have the variety one expects of a buffet.
Richard
It was advertised as having an airport shuttle but it was actually just calling a taxi (or Uber) to pick me up. I only chose to stay there because they advertised having airport tranportation.

It was a beautiful property with friendly staff and nice amenities. It was convenient to the airport and wasn't impacted by load shedding happening in the area.

our stay was amazing. the issue was when we checked in we came all the way from Pretoria only to find that our bookings were not done we paid 1st of November 2021. we were told that hotels .com did not send them a voucher for our books we waited for an hour while there where busy trying to fix the problem, and we were told that there were fully booked after an hour they told us that our room was ready.

I enjoyed my stay. Cleanliness throughout the period we stayed there. Front desk should explain to new guests how the card system works, more especially in the elevator.

The rooms were very clean and the hand santizer and handcreams which were in the room came in very handy on the trip. The staff (from the reception, the security guards, the restaurant personnel and the housekeepers) were exceptional! They were all friendly, professional and very helpful. Thank you for a great stay.

Rather confused about breakfast structure - Too expensive for what was offered.
Groups of soccer players visiting the hotel were extremely roudy around the pool and staff didnt attend to this as it was terrible for other guests!
Over-all it was a good stay - Clean & friendly & safe.

Condition and breakfast
The hotel inside was pleasing but level one packing was leaking water. So when its full you are forced to step down from the car and we don't know how safe that running water was.
The breakfast was also average, more like Road Lodge, there was no difference. I sometimes sleep at Town lodge at Kempton Park in Johannesburg their breakfast is far away from the one at Umhlanga. Very good. So I suggest that they improve a lot on breakfast.
Otherwise their hospitality and service was WOW....very excellent service from everyone.

Poor check-in
The receptionist could not find the booking on their system, and instead of calling Hotels.com, they made us wait for hours. I eventually called Hotels.com and the booking was resolved.

Good budget accommodation.
Overall pleasant stay for the price. Room is fresh in design and of decent size and space. Clean and comfortable. Service was good and quick. No frills no fuss budget accommodation.

Worst check in experience.
Worst check in experience. The check in staff (Busi) first said they do not have my booking when i should her my confirmation. Then she insisted in me paying after i paid online. She called he4 manager Zodwa who also insisted i pay as Hotels.com might not pay them. Then after paying Busi said they do not have a room, then changed to say they have a room with 2 single beds. When we started to get annoyed suddenly a room with a double bed was available. Then she said that someone will check the n3xt morning and refund us. They charged more than the advertised rate. The room was clean and neat and had all the amenities.
Next morning it took the staff more than 30 minutes to refund us. What a waste of our time.

Teething Problems
The Hotel generally is good and the fact that it is new so everything is still in good order. The WiFi was one main problem, affecting the TV and the landline. It was not working in the rooms but reception and corridors.
