The Edward
149 OR Tambo Parade, North Beach, 4001 Durban, South Africa – Great location - show map
This hotel is really lovely. It is right across the street from the beach, and my friend and I had a beach facing room and we left the door open at night to hear the Indian Ocean. The dining room is really nice. My favorite breakfast thing - among all the choices - was the orange muffins!
