Call a friend worked this time. Just the fact that they have a 24 hour service meens you are able to have a place to sleep should an emergency arise and it is late. Also affordable and priced well for the hard working class

The guest house is very clean and accommodative. I enjoyed staying at the guest house. I like the fact that it have a small kitchen inside and also the bathroom has both the bath tab and the shower and you can also cook if you want to.

Really fell in love with first accomodation we were in, we were put up in the exclusive Penthouse of the Lodge and it was beautiful, spacious, clean, comfortable and welcoming.
It created a wonderful travelling experience for us as we were there for my birthday weekend, we felt as though we weren't in the city at all and felt like we were in pure luxury.
Had some confusion with our check-in but thanks to PJ, such a wonderful person and soul, so kind and was quick to sort everything out for us especially me (pregnant, grumpy woman). PJ sorted out our booking mix up and room and took us to the wonderful Penthouse. (Give that man a Bells).
The general manager Roan was wonderful and professional as well, he came to meet us and both him and PJ gave us complementary breakfast for the confusion.
I've traveled and have never seen such a well oiled machine in a lodge that's being run like a 5 star hotel. The two ladies who came to clean the Penthouse thank you to them as well, didn't get their names.
The entire stuff amazing.
Left our belongings behind check-out we are back in Gauteng and they called us to tell us all is safe with them for us to pick up when we're ready to come do that.
The pool was nice and clean.
Breakfast was bountiful and delicious.
(Chef came to our room after breakfast was long served to ask if we were ready for breakfast... Wonderful stuff indeed).
Loved everything about the Penthouse and the experience of the Lodge will definitely come back for this experience.
Hehehehe😃 after experiencing the Penthouse there's no way you want to be in the other rooms or units😉

The lodge was okay. The room was spacious, but needs a modern touch (i.e. the bathroom, the bed size could be bigger, coffee station). Certain rooms based on where they are located lack privacy (i.e. rooms facing the gate/ main entrance) one cannot have curtains opened generally, the neighbouring noise/ movements are heard throughout the night.

Not a great experience. Definitely not worth the money. The breakfast was R160, and the first morning they did not even have eggs when I dished up. Second morning the toaster were not working. The room was dirty when I checked in. For the same money could have stayed in a much better place.

The place is average affordable and safe, the room was big, bed comfortable, welcoming (staff friendly). Easily accessible. Clean, it's not bad at all. Nelspruit Lodge is affordable, the only thing I would if possible they can just add car ports for protection of cars in case of a storm.

The Lodge is situated close to the Mediclinic, giving my mother and I quick access to my very ill, 91 year old father. The staff helped arrange transport to and from the hospital daily, removing a huge stress factor from our shoulders. we will definitely use the Lodge in future, when necessary.

The Restaurant had a make over on the menu and this was an absolute to try. Still in the beginning stages and try and error but definitely a try for now... keep up the good work guys... The dessert was to die for and in the winter month the soup a heart warming feeling...
