In my room the AC didn't initially work but two quick visits from staff and that was remedied. The bathroom is VERY TINY and the shower/tub requires a big step up to get in and out. The Balmoral is right on the beach and has lots of restaurants nearby which is convenient. There are vendors who set up at the beach too. Note the sockets are different than in other parts of South Africa. I didn't have the correct adapter here when I did in Cape Town and Sodwana Bay. ##### Melissa Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Jun 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Had a great time and they treated us Comrades runners well. ##### David Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ricardo Apr 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It is a very old hotel but still has its charm.

From the hotel manager, reception desk, the restaurant, and the housekeeping staff, everyone was incredible. We had a room facing the water, so it was incredible to look out the windows and clearly see the water and beach. The room was not noisy at all. Breakfast had lots of options and we ate dinner in the hotel almost every night.
