Nice enough place, but there is no generator to provide electricity during daily loadshedding power outages. This is unlike many of the other BnBs and hotels in South Africa. The WiFi is weak/ intermittent. Staff do not answer emails.

No back up electricity

We had booked a 4-night stay for Indaba at this property based on previous reviews (8-12 May). We checked in and checked out straight away. The rooms were filthy, the cupboards had lots of dead cockroaches in them, and the bed linen had stains, and looked as though it was not clean. When we let the owner know she was less than apologetic and just mentioned they would change our rooms - which we assumed would be as bad. We had to scramble to find other accommodation as the travel Indaba was on. We left without staying and asked management to contact us which they have not done. I would not recommend this property to anyone. 

Disappointing, dirty and poor customer service

Looking for somewhere to stay overnight for cricket match at Kingsmead. Came across Silver Oaks and could not believe the rate! Staff are great, rooms large with shower and spa bath,dstv and comfy bed. Great experience and would recommend to anyone looking for a tranquil place to stay in the hub if the city. Welcome surprise.


Great Surprise in Durban 

Great place to stay in Durban
Quiet and very clean
Staff are friendly and breakfast is great
Note: Bottled water must be provided in rooms and also a can of airfreshner!!!!!!!!!
Parking is good and very reasonable rates for rooms.

Perfect

The location is almost perfect... a walking distance from the almost forever green Musgrave Centre.

The size is ideal and the rooms are well-sized.  The beds were comfortable and clean.

What we hated the most were the carpets.  Fabric flooring always carries smells and in this case it was mouldy.  There were also hairs all over the place!  

The room that I was given on arrival had a dysfunctional air conditioning system.  Imagine how was my evening in the scorching humid heat of summer Durban!  Nightmare.  The bathroom cupboards were aging, peeling ungraciously.   

But the air-conditioning system is what bothered us the most.  It is old and unsightly.  You know that cheap yellow plastic colour.  Yet the reception and common areas have new and more effective air-conditioning systems... this says a lot about how they view their customers.

I must admit, this situation was remedied as soon as I raised the matter the following day.  But the damage was done.

Last, there is no undercover/shaded parking.  In fact, there is NO parking to speak of!

This could have been great, but somehow loses the plot

Ideally placed if you have business in the Musgrave area. Very good value for money. Clean, with friendly staff, secure parking, good Wi-Fi and a decent breakfast. Filling station, shopping mall and restaurants close by. A comfortable lounge with daily newspaper and magazines.

It is no longer purple

I have spent three weekends at Silver Oaks this year so far. The interior is modern and well maintained, It's an exquisite comfortable home away from home. The service is absolutely great, the staff members are very welcoming and respectful. We always find our designated suite spotlessly neat and thoroughly polished every time. I cannot wait for my next visit!

Exquisite

The place is situated in a quiet area and easy to access, the room is okey but needs a bit of tlc the curtains were torn and the pedestal were coming loose it means they are old. Breakfast terrible the worst I've ever had serving tinned fruit cocktail no that's not for 4 stars place, they need to do some research for their breakfast menu 

They can do better 

I was very fortunate to stay at Silver Oak during my trip. After a month of travelling through South Africa, I was looking for a clean, peaceful environment in a safe yet central location. It is only fair to say that Silver Oaks exceeded my expectations. The management and staff were very helpful and proactive in ensuring that my stay was comfortable throughout. The rooms are very spacious, very clean and great value. The free breakfast is great, which includes the best porridge in SA! The hotel is located next to the musgrave shopping centre which has a Woolworths, a good variety of restaurants, and it is also close to a filling station for any late night snacks. Overall, Silver Oaks was a very comfortable, friendly and convenient place to stay. A real gem of a find in the heart of Durban.
