Onomo Hotel Durban - Your Stay in Durban
About the Hotel
Rooms & Amenities
Rooms at Onomo Hotel Durban are modern and compact, with air conditioning, flat-screen satellite TVs, work desks, laptop safes, and double-glazed windows. Unlimited WiFi is included. Some rooms have a shower, and bathrooms are separated by a wooden wall for limited privacy. Bedding is changed daily, but the sleeper couch in some rooms may have stains. The hotel offers standard twin rooms, standard queen rooms, and one-bedroom suites. No microwaves or fridges are in the rooms; you can request a bar fridge, but it may not be available.
Dining Options
Breakfast is served buffet-style from 06H30 to 22H00 with continental, buffet, or Full English/Irish options. Guests liked the scrambled eggs, fresh croissants, and fresh coffee, but only scrambled eggs are available-no fried eggs. Dinner includes a buffet with options like beef burgers. The rooftop restaurant and green terrace restaurant offer seasonal cuisine. Waitstaff are sometimes slow with bills, but food is generally good.
Leisure & Entertainment
The hotel has an outdoor swimming pool with sun loungers and beach chairs. There is a fitness center with Technogym equipment and a spa that was not available during some stays (guests were sent to another branch). The rooftop restaurant was closed for some stays. The terrace has outdoor furniture and a garden. Guests can use the pool, but it may be dirty and not cleaned daily.
