The guesthouse provided an excellent stay. The room was spacious and well-appointed, complete with high-quality amenities. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a restful night. The small kitchen and well-stocked minibar added a convenient touch to the stay. Although two of the LED lights were not functioning, the overall experience was very positive and offered great value for money.
The nearby restaurant, Orange, offered an exceptional dining experience that seamlessly complemented our stay at the guesthouse. Renowned as one of the finest establishments in Mbombela, Orange impressed with its exquisite cuisine, attentive service, and inviting ambiance. Each dish was a delightful testament to culinary artistry, making our meal both memorable and satisfying. Without a doubt, Orange stands out as a culinary gem in the city, adding to the overall positive impression of our visit.

An Unforgettable Stay at Francolin Lodge

During my recent stay at Frankolin Lodge, I was thoroughly impressed by the experience. The front desk and restaurant staff were exceptionally efficient and friendly, ensuring every detail was taken care of with warmth. The rooms were not only comfortable but also gave a home-away-from-home feeling, perfect for a relaxing getaway.

Breakfast was always a highlight, with impeccable service and delicious offerings that started each day beautifully. The overall ambience of the lodge was outstanding—calm, inviting, and perfect for unwinding.

A special mention goes to their restaurant, Orange, which truly deserves Michelin recognition. The food was outstanding, combining exquisite flavors with great value for money. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Frankolin Lodge to anyone looking for a memorable and relaxing stay.

The bed's headboard is made out of a solid concrete. If you miss the pillow, watch your head! The child bed/crib was not set up as requested. It was left in-front of the door without a mattress. At the end of the stay staff always tries to charge you extras for things you didn't do. This has happened twice in a row. The restaurant makes delicious food - that is probably the #1 reason for visiting this lodge. The bathroom (including the toilet and the shower) are in the bedroom so there is no privacy.

Stylish hotel in great setting.

We had a very pleasant stay in this upmarket boutique hotel. The room was very well appointed and the pool area excellent. The location is on a hill overlooking Nelspruit and we dined well at the in-house restaurant on the terrace.

The grounds are great and location was great. The views are also great. Breakfast is included and was wonderful. The only drawbacks are there is no bathroom door and their on-site restaurant was closed for an event. I wish I had known that. That being said, it's a great place to stay and I would recommend to all.

Lovely hotel, friendly staff!\n

This hotel was beautifully situated with awesome views. The staff were lovely, friendly and extremely helpful at all stages of the process! The room was great and exactly as described. The food was fabulous and the attached restaurant was outstanding. They gave lovely complimentary nibbles each evening. They also helped with arranging a safari which conveniently picked us up from the hotel.
I would definitely recommend this hotel!!

If in Nelspruit, would definitely stay again

Perfect last-stop before setting off for a few nights in Kruger National Park huts. Breakfast was very delicious, staff friendly, fantastic views, beautiful pool area, and very friendly property great dane (his name is Frank). I expected rooms to be a bit fancier for a 5-star rating on Hotels.com, but they were clean, comfortable, and nice.
