LOCATION: It's
hard to believe that this haven of grace is right in the heart
of a busy cosmopolitan city. There is a quiet sense of restrained
elegance which belies the bustle outside; a warm welcome echoes
a bygone age of care and comfort in an unhurried mood of luxury.
Yet The Royal Hotel is conveniently situated in Durban's Central
Business district, within walking distance of extensive entertainment,
commercial, sports and tourist facilities.
ACCOMMODATION: All rooms have selected DSTV, direct dial telephones, air-conditioning
and heating, and tea and coffee making facilities, re-enforcing
our goal to ensure a convenient stay for all. Mini bars are a
standard feature of all our suites, with fax machines, and in-room
internet available in our executive and penthouse suites. A butler
service is available on two dedicated floors and The Royal also
provides a floor of accommodation for those women travelling alone,
as well as non-smoking floors.
RESTAURANT: With
six unique restaurants and a choice of three upmarket cocktail
venues, The Royal offers something for every taste - from the
casual to the superlative. Together, The Royal's dining venues
offer dining of an international standard, from classic cuisine
to creative light meals.
CONFERENCES & FUNCTIONS: While
pleasure is The Royal's business, business itself receives expert
attention too. Conferencing and banqueting facilities here are
comprehensive, offering a choice of venues from glittering ballroom
to intimate boardroom.
Magnificent
yellowwood paneling, complimented by exquisite crystal chandeliers,
predominates throughout the banqueting suites, which offer the
perfect setting for full-scale conventions, sales presentations,
directors' meetings and any other business-oriented function.
All can be linked to the latest in audio-visual technology and,
as you'd expect, the catering and communications services are
every bit as legendary as the Hotel.
