Happy Durban Rowers

My son and I have stayed at the Germiston Road Lodge several times and have always experienced a comfortable stay. The room and ensuite are clean and well presented. I like that you can open the window if you don't want to use the air conditioner. The breakfast is pricey but does offer a good variety of food. The hotel is extremely conveniently located, especially if you a rower. It is right next to Victoria Lake, it has a great restaurant called Harvards just down the road at Rand Airport and a Roadhouse, for quick takeaways, within a short walking distance from the hotel. It also has easy access to the N3.

perfectly nice overnight business travel stay

the room was basic but clean and comfortable and good value for money. I got a good night's rest, which what I needed. Staff were friendly, but what was a bit confusing was that the key cards had to be held upside down to get into the room, which nobody explained. Breakfast was ok but a bit basic and closed at 9:00 am which I found surprisingly early. There was a nice restaurant at the Rand Airport 5 mins drive away.
