Handy and nice hotel for Durban. Location not on the beach but good enough. There is 24 hours security and secure car park. The breakfast and restaurant is very good. This round my room is facing the road, can be a bit noisy compare to inward facing room.

Lovely staff, but.....

The Onomo staff is responsive and helpful! The vegetarian food was awful. No tissues in the room. No hair dryers in the room. I was able to get one from housekeeping but do they have enough for all the rooms?

Great hotel, lots of amenities - spa, pool, onsite restaurant and cool bar to hang out in, short 5 min walk to North Beach, 24 hour security and free undercover parking, back up generators which was excellent given the increased load shedding while we were staying in South Africa.

From the road the hotel doesn’t look like much, it’s a neat and clean, modern hotel. Stayed here because of a visa appointment that was in central town. Good location if you need ti do something in and around the area. Really impressed at the hotel, the room and facilities for a 3 star. Will definitely recommend😊

Very comfortable and economical

Our stay was very good. Very comfortable and economical. Just the hotel was packed the evening we checked in and we were on the 1st floor. It was very noisy all night. Unfortunately, it was young ppl and they bounced a ball above us and screamed and laughed in the passageways most of the night. At vreakfast it was over corwded and hot. I suggest you have the aircons running doring breakfast as it gets very uncomfortable. Staff are always amazing.

The property has a nice vibe as you enter, unfortunately for us who arrived on a later flight into Durban the staff were evidently overwhelmed and 'over it' by the time it came to checking us in and could not find our booking and were growing increasingly impatient Once that was sorted the room given was a double and not a twin as requested, the rooms very very very tight for a twin and although the bathroom and toilet were clean the bin in the room was broken and filthy. The second room we managed to secure at almost midnight was much larger but had a sewer problem and I suspect that is the only reason it was still free. When we mentioned this in the morning the staff on duty knew exactly which room we were referring to before we had even given him a room number meaning they were aware of this issue but went ahead and sold it to us anyway. On a positive note, Onomo had an amazing breakfast spread and is a property I would probably visit again

Bed linen was very thin, old, dirty. The toilet was stinkinhg likr a oublic urinal, entire room smelled like a restroom. There were roaches. Staff were nice, and breakfast was good. Security guard at the gate was very unfriendly, combative and unhelpful, he did not want to come to Uber car to allow it in saying the customer is one who needs to come to him to seek hrlp but not the guard.

Safe and Tranquil.

It was to short. If it wasn’t for the Comrades race . I would love to have stayed there longer. Maybe next year as part of the accommodation please organize a group traveling bus. Would take a lot of pressure offf the Runners. The Onomo staff really went out of their way to make an enjoyable time for Comrades Runners. Not once did I hear a NO or I don’t know or we can’t. They always managed to give me a satisfactory answer to all my requests. It has been greatly appreciated and will not go unnoticed. Thank You once again 🙏
