Lovely quiet bed and breakfast. African theme decor. Rooms large and well laid out. Air conditioning in my room was not working on the hottest and most humid night. No alternative was offered. No discount or refund. Unable to use the WiFi the signal was very weak... as I was only there one night i did not bother to follow up any further.

So helpful
Our hosts couldn't have been more helpful and considerate as we were able to check in early and needed to have our luggage held so we could leave late. Gorgeous African decorations filled the house. Short walk to a great Indian restaurant.

Extra Towels in the Durban Heat is a Hygiene Issue
It was a hot day and I asked for an extra set of towels on arrival because I intended to wash before sleeping; and was politely told to use my allocated one set of bath and hand towels. During this heatwave bathing at night and morning is my normal routine at home; and I always use a clean set of towels. Thankfully I drove down the road to purchase an extra set. In the middle of the power went off and was restored in the morning. I will not be visiting this establishment ever again!

Excellent at less than any hotel chain
This was for a one night stay and if you are on business and want a quiet, relaxing place to stay, this is it. At the price, I will most certainly stay there again as the comfort, cleanliness and overall experience was far superior to any of the hotel chains that I have stayed at for double the price.

We stayed at the African Regent for 2 nights for a business trip. The place is tastefully decorated and the rooms are very clean and comfortable. The owners were fantastic and made the stay worthwhile. Breakfast was great as well. I would definitely recommend this place.
