I felt I had to write this review to warn others after my experience here. Myself and my husband had a similar experience to previous reviewers, and after experiencing the owners manner first hand I can believe how they would choose to lay the fault of a bad review with the reviewer rather than examining their hosting skills and guest...

We stayed here for one night only, thank goodness. We were greeted with "Hello I'm Ian, sign here, this is your room, here's your key". He was very offhand. We never met or were introduced to his wife. It was Boxing Day and everything seemed too much trouble. Maybe this is his usual manner or maybe he took an instant... More

We stayed 2 nights at The Saffron House which was a mistake. We received a surly short welcome, given very little information and told if we didn't use the complimentary map of the area to give it back on our departure. The owner's attitude left us in no doubt they are not warm hosts. She was clipped and short with... More

I stayed in this hotel for just a few days whilst attending the Climate change Conference in Durban. Although it was some distance away from Durban, it was an excellent choice!

We were booked here for 2 nights in November 2011 by our tour organiser "Selftours". We had specified Ballito but was placed at Salt Rock.

I can really high;y recommend this guest house. I stayed there whilst I was attending a conference in Salt Rock and also returned when I had a day to spend in Salt Rock on vacation. The rooms are spotlessly clean and comfortable and there is free wi-fi available in the guesthouse. As well as that the owners can advise on... More

This was our secand time to stay in Saffron, Ian and Jenny are very welcoming and they have excellent staff.Rooms are very comfortable and the catering is 5 star, We plan to return again next year which indicates just how good it is!! More

The hosts were warm, friendly and approachable. The room was spacious and extremely comfortable with all the necessities in perfect working order. We enjoyed a well cooked dinner and breakfast, and the pool was a welcome retreat. Will definitely be the first place I consider staying when I'm in the area again. More
