“Blue Waters Hotel strikes me as a smart choice in Durban, particularly for its beachfront location and balconies that capitalize on the sea view. I'm impressed by reports of consistently good breakfast and attentive service and the well-appointed, clean rooms appeal to me. It appears to be a reliable and comfortable base, especially during busy events like the Comrades weekend.”
