Really great location, especially for younger visitors to Durban, for easy walking access to restaurants and bars all around. I felt fine walking until late because there were so many other people out and about. The unofficial parking guards may tail you a bit, thinking you are going to your car when you walk back to the hotel, but they're... More

The Benjamin is a great deal for the location compared to other similar hotels in the area. The rooms are small and simple, but are adequate for a brief stay or if you don't plan on spending much time in your room.

We spent 2 nights at the Benjamin Boutique Hotel in January 2012. The hotel is impeccably clean. The ambience is homely and gives a feeling of comfort, warmth, and relaxation. The staff is welcoming, helpful and very warm, yet unobtrusive. There was a complimentary bottle of wine in our room, and we found the complimentary drinks (open bar) in the... More

I stayed at The Benjamin Boutique Hotel for 2 nights in December 2011. As a woman travelling on my own I felt completely safe at all times. A night security guard was available to show me to the parking, as I came home late. There was a lot of personal contact between the staff and the guests. What impressed me... More
