Ridgeview is a very beautiful boutique hotel, with a nice garden and a terrace with a view of the harbour. The room was very comfortable, with very convenient amenities provided and renewed everyday. The garden and terrace were very relaxing (if you do not mind the monkeys on the surface of the building), and just sitting on the terrace was a treat. The landlady, Vasantha, is a very knowledgeable and caring person who goes out of her way to take care of her guest. She gave me very valuable information about Durban and South Africa in general and took very good care of my safety during my stay.
