    I wasn't happy about the walking up and down to the 13th floor each time I left or got back to the property I booked. You come back tired from a vacation. But durban was good, went to Gondolas boats at seapoint, suncoast for movies and Harbour for a braai since property don't have braai area. But south beach has become too rachet it has changed .

    Everything was perfect. Great service from the incredible porter, Njabul, to the efficient reception staff (Indian lady and Stha), we were most impressed.The breakfast buffet was 5 star and the restaurant staff especially Godfrey were amazing! The rooms were spotless and fresh. Excellent location for all types of cuisine and we felt very safe walking along the promenade at 6am and walking back from dinner across the hotel at the Oceans Mall. Thanks for one of our best stays in Durban,South Africa.

There was a full mini-kitchen with coffee etc supplied. The view was amazing, could not be beaten! The bathroom was very clean and adequate. There was a lot of cupboard storage space. Everything in the hotel was extremely clean!! Thank you management and staff of Parade Hotel, Durban, KZN, South Africa!

    The hotel has a central location close to Florida Road, the heart of the Durban nightlife. The room had a kettle and a fridge. A microwave is available in the common area. If you need an iron and an iron board, you can request from reception. We had bottled water. The room was equipped with aircon. We stayed for two nights and our room was cleaned nicely after night 1.
