A splendid fews day spent in this stylish sophisticated boutique hotel situated a 3 minute car ride from the Durban beachfront with easy access to other areas of Durban. Beautifully decorated in soft furnishings well-suited to the style of the building. The room on ground level was easy access and we could stroll to the conservatory style dining-room for breakfast, lunch or dinner. We chose to eat most of our meals there as the food was delicious with great attention to detail. Exceptionally friendly staff rounded off a lovely stay at The Quarters. We will definitely be back again and would gladly recommend this hotel.

The other reviews have pretty much said it: this is a stylish boutique (this word means something for once; its a small hotel and as spread over four townhouses you feel a proper sense of intimacy about the place, and furnishings smart and neutral without being minimalist in any way) hotel. It has friendly and helpful staff and is in a good location. I was a bit worried about the noise as next to two large roads, but this wasn't a problem even with the air con turned off - some rooms may be noisier than others though so if you're a light sleeper best to request a quiet room just in case. Breakfasts are good too. Might be a little on the pricey side for what it is as one reviewer recently wrote, but having travelled around KZN for a couple of weeks I don't think it's too much out. All in all, warmly recommended.

I spent one night in this hotel and some things are not coherent with level of price paid. I booked from booking a night at a price of about 140 euros for double room included breakfast. It seems not that much, but in durban a one day pass for bus is 1 euro, and dinner in nearby florida road is 20 euros for 2 persons. The value is not that good! The room is excellent. Nothing to say about it, except for one reason. Quarters is a group of 2 storeys colonial houses, so every room edges a road. Mine is located at a crossroad of two highly traffic road. Horrible sound insulation. I asked for a changed and i was promptly offered for a room on a side road which was much better.
I had another problem with breakfast. Once i was seated the waiter gave me a menu with prices on it. I didn't remember if breakfast was included in my tariff, so the waiter go and asked for it, saying that it was Not included. After the breakfast i checked out and the receptionist said nothing more was given. Luckily. A bit more of information would be helpful.

The Staff at Quarters were very friendly and always helpful.
The layout of the hotel is a little strange, with 4 houses that have been converted into hotel rooms. At first the whole thing seems a little disjointed, but after a day here, it kind of makes sense, and has a homely feel to it.

All the meals I had at the Brassiere were delicious and quick to come to the table.
There's also plenty of good restaurants a short walk away in Florida Rd if you want some more variety.
I highly recommend Butcher Boys steak house, great value, and great steak.

If there were a fridge in the room, it'd be a perfect score all round.
