We have stayed at the Francolin Lodge 3 times for long weekends in Nelspruit, and I am sure we'll visit many more times in the future. The location is quiet, with beautiful views over the city, and yet within a quick drive of all places of interest in and around Nelpruit; the rooms are large and beautifully decorated; the staff...

Francolin lodge is really amazing! The loft lodge we stayed in with my family is modern, beautiful, neat and spotless! We enjoyed 3 nights stay there and it was always a pleasure to enter the room and be welcomed by a soothing fragrance. The staff is friendly (including Frank the house dog) and service is excellent, however I must admit,... More

We stayed here for two nights. The design styled room (ultra modern) was very spacious and immaculate clean, with a nice outside view from the balcony. Everything you can ask for was available in this room, even a small kitchen area with refrigerator and microwave, tea and coffee making facilities, great bathroom amenities...and, let's not forget, a set of sherry...

This place was perfect for our two-night stay while we explored the Panorama Route before going on safari. The room was beautiful & spotless. The lodge grounds were well-maintained & had nice views of Nelspruit. The staff were very helpful & kind. The only downfall - no separation of the bathroom from the living area. The toilet is located in... More

After a disaterous experience at La Roca my wife and I checked into Francolin Lodge. What a fabulous location, comfy bed, brilliant shower and value for money. The owners and staff are most helpful and friendly and there is a great restaurant on site. The breakfast was also excellent. A brilliant overall experience. More

After all the positive reviews we have had, what a pity that one negative response can spoil such a great rating. We urge all future guests to visit our Lodge and jusge for themselves. More

We couldn't get into Francolin Lodge in March this year on our annual trip to the Kruger Park as we'd left booking a bit late. However, we've stayed there twice before and the most recent was in August 2010. It's the perfect place for a family stopover. Nicely decorated in a contemporary manner, the units we have stayed in have... More
