Cheap and at the same time, elegant. I've been to many hotels before and most of those hotels have faux statement and that is why I realised to write what I really expercienced. Hotel Durban is really beautiful, clean, cheap and most of all restaurants and bar are just walking distance. Though, if you're a smoker this might not be... More

Going from NAIA airport by taxi will take you around 15 min by taxi (his meter was giving 976 pesos but you should not pay more than 300, what I did!). It's very well situated in makati, just a half minute away from the hot nightlife! Clean rooms with all amenities, I can't remember the room number I stayed in... More

Room is good and clean. Pretty secure hotel. Location was prefect, it's just round the bend of where the happening places are located.... P. Burgos St. Staff they were ok I guess, I was to busy with my entertainment, I hardly have the time to take notice of the staff. But it's all good. More

I normally don't stay at budget hotels. Circumstances changed the first of the year. This business trip I stayed at Hotel Durban and glad of it. Place was spotless. Staff was very friendly, helpful. Bathroom kind of small. Firm bed. Felt very safe. Half the rate of neighboring hotels. Place is nice. Never minded bringing colleagues back to finish discussions... More

Firstly this is a budget hotel but prices are around 1500 per night depending on the room you have. Rooms are very clean but I experienced ants crawling over the place as per the previous reviewer. Floors are tiled which makes things more hygienic. It is hard to sleep there - constant noise from the lobby as the door is... More

After interviewing staff who had direct interactions with the reviewer and viewing closed-circuit TV footage of front desk transactions and lobby traffic during the reviewer’s stay, we have concluded that the staff member mentioned behaved properly and as-trained, and that none of our staff were asleep on-duty during the reviewer’s stay. We wish to reassure returning and prospective guests that... More

I have been staying for many times at Hotel Durban's neighbor, St. Giles Hotel, when my friends told me they will be staying at Hotel Durban. I need to join them as we will do something together so I decided to just stay with them. I was a bit hesitant because it was near the red light district of Makati... More

We are so happy that Kielwin gave Hotel Durban a chance by selecting us over our excellent neighbor, St. Giles Hotel, during his last stay in Manila. We are even happier that our service, quality, and amenities pleasantly surprised him. We work hard to give our guests the best value for their money of any hotel in the neighborhood. A... More

I've been staying at this hotel since it was still called "Durban Street Inn" and i have always liked their "homey" ambiance. There's a Mexican Mediterranean feel to it. Red Clay tiles, white walls, burgundy brown furniture. Most of the rooms are spacious, clean. In the last room i stayed in, it was spacious, new a/c, , spacious bathroom, hot... More

This place is truly awesome. I'm convinced you can't do better in Manila at this price. The hotel is spotless. Everything seems modern and comparable to western hotels. The room had A/C and a tv along with a strong wifi signal. The staff is friendly and go above and beyond. Call ahead, though, as it does book up quickly. I... More

We stayed here for 3 nights after arriving in Manila without a reservation. Normally we reserve somewhere in advance but this was a quickly booked trip. After trying a couple of places where we had previously stayed, we were directed to the Durban and we were glad to get a room easily. The hotel is good value for this part... More

We are glad that Wanderingoff had a pleasant stay and found us to be a good value. We work hard to ensure that all our guests are greeted with the friendliness and professionalism expected in a major hotel. We would like Wanderingoff – and all our guests – to know that we have begun a robust noise abatement program, which... More
