Luuks, goeie diens. Die restaurant, Orange, op die perseel is fantasties.

Ontbyt is ingesluit by die prys. Dit was 'n onverwagte verrassing.

Luxury, good service. The restaurant, Orange, on the premises is fantastic.

Breakfast is included in the price. It was an unexpected surprise.

Teleurstellend.

Die verblyf word hoog gegradeer, tog het ek die kwaliteit teleurstellend gevind. Die matte in die kamers is vuil. 4 pap-kussings en gekreukelde beddegoed. Die interieur is ook nie smaakvol nie en baie basies. Die ontbyt was lekker. Die Laeveld het soveel om te bied.

Disappointing.

The accommodation is highly rated, yet I found the quality disappointing. The carpets in the rooms are dirty. 4 fluffy pillows and wrinkled bed linen. The interior is also not tasteful and very basic. The breakfast was nice. The Lowveld has so much to offer.

Dit is vyfster.

Die lodge is presies soos bemark. Die slaapplek was groot en stylvol. Hier voel jy dat jy waarde vir jou geld kry. Die Orange Restaurant het die heerlikste kos bedien met die mees rustige atmosfeer. Die ontbyt was heerlik. Alles was net perfek. Sal dit hoogs aanbeveel vir enige iemand.

It is five star.

The lodge is exactly as marketed. The sleeping place was large and stylish. Here you feel that you are getting value for your money. The Orange Restaurant served the most delicious food with the most peaceful atmosphere. The breakfast was delicious. Everything was just perfect. Would highly recommend it to anyone.

We were expecting a real 5 star experience, and unfortunately this was far from it.

Due to the Covid travel restrictions this place has unfortunately been neglected. Amazing view and location, horribly let down by the state of the rooms. Linen was threadbare, towels old and no longer fluffy. No fancy toiletries. Only old dusty bath-salts. Limited mini bar. Mattress was so hard. We were unfortunately very disappointed! We wanted a nice luxury 5 star stay for one night and got a 3 star outdated room overlooking the security guard who could see right into the bedroom. Blinds didn't fully close and at night anyone in the parking lot could see into the room.

Pragtige plek met ’n wonderlike uitsig!

Dit was 'n heerlike ondervinding, veral ons aandete by Orange Restaurant - dit was heerlik. Die personeel is baie behulpsaam. Ek kan ongelukkig nie dieselfde sê van die sekuriteit nie, hulle laat ongelukkig die restaurant se kliënte op die bespreekte parkeerplek van die inwonende gaste parkeer, en hy was glad nie bereid om te help nie. Daar was geen parkering beskikbaar nie. Na 'n halfuur se wag was daar vir die eerste keer 'n parkering beskikbaar!

Beautiful place with a wonderful view!

It was a lovely experience, especially our dinner at Orange Restaurant - it was delicious. The staff is very helpful. Unfortunately I can't say the same about the security, unfortunately they let the restaurant's customers park in the reserved parking space of the resident guests, and he was not willing to help at all. There was no parking available. After half an hour of waiting, there was a parking available for the first time!

Refreshing after such a long time of lockdown.

The rooms are specious and clean, quiet place.

Baie netjiese, warm plekkie, veral saam met jou vrou. Ontbyte was puik, dis net jammer die balkon van Franklin wys almal na die agterkant toe.

Ons verblyf was baie lekker. Ons het wel een aand geen warm water gehad nie, wat nogal ongemaklik was. Blybaar was die skakelaar af en dan was die aand se kos bediening by die restaurant nogal ongemaklik. Vir een of ander rede is die lading dan te groot en dan bly die hele lodge se krag afskakel. Dit gebeur ten minste 4 keer op 'n aand gedurende etenstyd. Dit was super irriterend. Verder was alles baie lekker.

Very neat, warm place, especially with your wife. Breakfast was great, it's just a shame the balcony of Franklin all faces the back.

Our stay was very nice. We did have no hot water one night, which was quite uncomfortable. Inevitably, the switch was off and then the evening's food service at the restaurant was rather awkward. For some reason the load is too big and then the entire lodge's power keeps shutting down. This happens at least 4 times in an evening during dinner time. It was super annoying. Other than that, everything was very nice.
