“Radisson Blu Hotel in Durban's Umhlanga balances its modern style with some family-friendly touches that I appreciate; the children's playground and dedicated kid's menu are thoughtful inclusions. While the ocean views from premium rooms are definitely a draw, it's the generous complimentary buffet, with its diverse dietary options, that I find truly sets it apart. Ultimately, I think this property has a lot to offer both leisure and business travellers.”
