This boutique hotel managed by Three Cities is a wonderful jewel in Umhlanga, KZN. The rooms are wonderfully apportioned with beautiful bathrooms. The staff is absolutely wonderful and always eager to assist. The breakfast and restaurant is stunning and the food recommendable. Even has a nicely equipped gym. Definitely the best option from all the hotels in the vicinity.

Stayed here just for one night, was very impressed. Very clean and modern. Rooms are well kitted out and spacious with lovely bathrooms. Breakfast the next morning was very good. Great location as well.

You won't find a place nicer/more convenient.When you're travelling for business,it's the little touches that count.Of the 20 or so places in durban I've stayed,this is the most comfortable. Rooms are gorgeous,staff is quiet,and very helpful.Rooftop view of Durban and beach,exquisite!Close to Gateway Mall,and good launching point for tourist activities.

Brand new. Clean. Modern. Very friendly and pleasant. Actually, it has little to fault it except that you could stay at another hotel which is much closer to the new Gateway shopping mall and all its attractions for the same price. if you have a car, then its no problem at all but if you are a business traveller and...

At just over R900 per night including a very satisfactory breakfast it is impossible to give the Square hotel anything but top marks! Excellent rooms with superb beds. Ok, the desk is a little too small to work comfortably at - but we made very good use of the conference area. My airconditioning was malfunctioning, but I would rather have... More

We found the reviews of The Square Boutique Hotel & Spa and booked the Couples Retreat package enroute whilst travelling in our car from the South Coast. We arrived about 90 minutes later and all was ready for our arrival which was very impressive. The hotel is new and very clean. The rooms are relaxing but still have a luxurious... More

Spent 3 nights at this new hotel from 27 November with my wife and 10 year old daughter after noticing a great bed and breakfast promotional offer. The hotel is situated more towards the La Lucia Ridge side of Umhlanga in the quiet and more business part of town. Upon arrival we were treated extremely well by friendly and efficient... More
