A very pleasant stay indeed. Situated in Ann old neighbourhood, it nevertheless has a charm of its own. Very comfortable, stylishly refurbished rooms and an excellent restaurant make this a business refuge of note.

Great hotel within close proximity to all Durban attractions. It is a elderly building which has been tastefully converted to a hotel. It feels very secure and safe. The staff are excellent providing very professional standards without getting in your face. The food is varied and tasty, I loved the breakfast choice which competes with the best of English breakfasts.... More

I stayed at The St James on Venice while in Durban recently, and what a wonderful experience it was. If you like five-star quality of the best hotels (without the crowds and noise), combined with the intimacy, peace and quiet of a good guest house (without a hovering owner that wants to introduce you to everybody else and the dog),...

If you are from Durban - try their high tea- you opulent possibly be disappointed- if you need a venue for upmarket baby shower , kitchen tea or even a small wedding - I can recommend them with onfidence - proffesional but personal service .

We arrived late after a long journey. Especially the reception was warm and very welcoming. After checking in we had a good and freshly cooked meal. Slept great. The sun was out the next day and we had breakfast in the garden. The composition of the breakfast was a little weird. Home made cookies and stuff. I have enjoyed the... More
