ComfortableGreat locationFriendly staff
NhlanhlaSouth AfricaI didn’t enjoy my stay at all. Not even extra blunket yet last week was cold in Durban.
I didn’t like anything. No wardrobe, no microwave, no fridge as seen in the pictures. I booked for two days but checked out after one night and forfeited my money.
I indicated above. But just to add, no SABC channels,…

There were cockroaches in my room

Everything, it was so clean and accommodating.
Nothing
FundiswaSouth AfricaIt was just okay
I loved the location because it is nearby Florida road.
The room had no microwave no fridge. For a self catering accommodation I expected that since we had to buy takeaways. The room had cockroaches.
GodfreySouth AfricaThe check in was smooth and the parking was very safe, could do with a bar fridge and coffee in the room
Lack of coffee or tea in the room
TK SanchezSouth AfricaThe place was very quiet, which made it easy to relax. I also thoroughly enjoyed the hot shower after returning from the Comrades Marathon.
The TV connection was very poor as the remote wasn't working.

- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.

Questions about Palace Lodge Morningside
What time is check-in and check-out at Palace Lodge Morningside?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Palace Lodge Morningside allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Is breakfast included at Palace Lodge Morningside?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does Palace Lodge Morningside have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Palace Lodge Morningside have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Palace Lodge Morningside?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 2:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Palace Lodge Morningside?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
