About the Place

Located on Durban’s Golden Mile, with the Marine Parade and beach on its doorstep, the The Balmoral is a short walk from the Durban ICC and the uShaka Marine World. The business and shopping district can be found nearby. Fully renovated, the Balmoral still retains its historic and stately façade, which makes it one of Durban’s most elegant venues along the Golden Mile beachfront. The strictly Halaal Waterfront Restaurant leads out onto the Waterfront Terrace, where you can enjoy a relaxing dining experience whilst overlooking the Indian Ocean. The Balmoral has 95 elegantly appointed, fully-equipped, spacious rooms. Greyville Racecourse is 4 km from the property, while King Shaka International Airport is 32 km away.

Standard Hotels offered through misterb&b

Because we foster the largest community of gay travelers, we need to ensure all are welcome anywhere they go. Of course you may search for a private room or a full apartment from our gay and gay-friendly hosts. But sometimes, you would rather search for a hotel in a particular location or with certain amenities.

To help in your search we have selected a few standard hotels that we believe are a good fit for LGBTQ+ travelers.

Why did we select these hotels?
Because of their location, services, amenities, rates, and overall good reputation, we believe these hotels can appeal to LGBTQ+ travelers. At this point though, we haven’t been able to vet their welcoming attitude and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community.
We also help ensure hotels with a history of homophobic behavior, or whose owners are homophobic, are not listed on misterb&b.
