    This hotel offers great value for money, with reasonable prices for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail is evident throughout the hotel, from the well-maintained grounds to the clean and nicely furnished rooms. The location is ideal, situated in a quieter part of town yet still within easy reach of several restaurants and local amenities. The friendly and helpful staff ensure a pleasant stay, and the basic amenities provided in the rooms, including a bath and a good-sized bed, make for a comfortable night's sleep. Breakfast is also included and is a great start to the day.

    All was in perfect order, nothing to complain about.

    I had a great stay at this hotel after visiting Kruger National Park. The owner was incredibly helpful and gave us great advice on where to have dinner. The grounds of the hotel were well-maintained and the room was very comfortable. I especially loved the breakfast in the morning, it was delicious. The hotel is located in a quieter part of the town but still has easy access to everything, including several restaurants.

    All in all, everything was fine during my stay at this hotel.

    This hotel was such a pleasant surprise! the value for money was outstanding. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the attention to detail in the rooms. Speaking of which, our room was spacious and had a good-sized 2-person bed, perfect for a comfortable night's sleep. The bathroom was clean and well-equipped with all necessary facilities. Additionally, the location of this hotel was ideal. It was situated in a quieter part of town, yet still close to everything we needed. There were several restaurants within easy walking distance, making it convenient for dining options. And let's not forget about breakfast - it was absolutely delicious!

    All was just fine and met our expectations.

    We recently stayed at a lodge close to Kruger Park for a city trip and we had a good experience. the hosts were friendly and hospitable, ensuring that our stay was seamless. the room was spacious with all the facilities we needed, free wifi, air conditioning and a fan. the lodge had a serene atmosphere with manicured gardens and a small pool. We also enjoyed the hearty hot breakfast that was served every morning.

    The bed was a bit too hard for our liking, which affected our quality of sleep. the toiletries provided in the bathroom were very basic and could have been better.

    The location was perfect to continue our journey, as it was very close to the main gate of the national park. The room was clean and spacious, with both a fan and air conditioning to keep us comfortable. The owners were welcoming and offered us great tips on where to go for dinner and what to see in the area. On top of that, the breakfast was tasty and filling, and we enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere by the pool.

    The Wi-Fi was a bit tricky to connect to, as there were multiple hotspots to choose from. , the toiletries provided were limited, so it's best to bring your own.

    This lodge offers a great location very close to the entrance of Kruger Park. the spacious and comfortable rooms with private terraces allow guests to enjoy the scenic well-kept gardens. the immaculate facilities stand out, as well as the charming service and excellent breakfast. Guests can also enjoy cold beverages from the honesty bar, secure parking, and efficient communication with the hosts.

    The lodge may not offer many nearby restaurant options or play areas for children, unlike some other lodging options in the area.
