    I dont know maybe its because the hotel was full but the room was not up to the standard.
    Great location
    The room that I got was not up to standard this time around. The ventilator was making a cracking noise especially at night. The bathroom had its own issues as well, when you run the shower water still came out from the bath tap vice Versa.

    The best stay for a relaxing vacation
    I loved the sea view from our room, and the breakfast varieties were great
    The pool closes at 1800, which was an inconvenience

    The location of the hotel is perfect, right next to the beach. The staff was very friendly and attended to our queries promptly.
    The website does not specify that there are 2 buildings under this name and it is important that we know to prevent being asked to split on arrival. Meaning one group staying in one building, the other on another building.

    Superb
    I had a wonderful stay at the Southern Sun Elangeni & Maharani Hotel. I always do, every time.
    Breakfast was really good, there was plenty of choice; and the sea view excellent. Free Wi Fi was the cherry on top.
    There's nothing I didn't like, except for the occasional noise from excited first time travelers obviously; but that was not the hotel's fault, otherwise the ambiance was perfect.

    View was nice and room was clean.
    We waited for 2 hours to check in despite check in time being 14:00 pm. I requested the manager to contact me but he/she never did. It was absolutely ridiculous.

    Perfect end of 2023 holiday for my family
    The staff were awesome, food was sumptuous, location of the hotel superb, we truly enjoyed our stay...
    The toilet needs better cleaning, the 508 room had some human hair behind the door, it's still there today, it didn't look good...
