Nestled in upper Morningside, Goble Palms Guest Lodge & Urban Retreat features an outdoor pool, an English-style pub, and a colonial rooftop terrace overlooking Durban and the Indian Ocean.

The boutique-style rooms are decorated with a mix of antique and contemporary décor. They feature air conditioning, a satellite TV, tea and coffee making facilities and free Wi-Fi.

Everyone going to Durban, AND who likes beautiful old style accommodations with plenty of charm should spend their time in this beautiful place, full of atmosphere, old antics, nice rooms, all different, (plenty pillows ;o) ), good breakfast, helpful personal, and even a little bottle sherry in the lounge for a little drink in the evening. The photos on the page don´t lie, it is a small gem, and a place like this would cost much more in Britain. It is situated away from the beach, and the characterless concrete hotels there, up behind the big football stadium . An Uber will take you up there for 40-50 Rand from the beach. Well worth it.

    I travel regularly and I'm a stickler for good service and attentive owners. The host at this venue was readily available to attend to our needs, even after hours! I'd gladly stay at this venue again. Clean, well-maintained and conveniently located. Rooms were super comfortable, apartment is very spacious indeed, and the host has made it feel like you're in your very own holiday home, not short of anything. Parking is secure and convenient, and security presence meant I never had to be too concerned about my family's safety.
