A beautiful new year is here and if you are looking at travelling to Nelspruit this year there are plenty of excellent lodges to book your stay in. Inspired by nature and the absolutely beautiful Lowveld scenery, many of the best lodges in the area are open, airy, and utterly peaceful. When you are booking your stay, it always helps to do a little research to find out more about what each has to offer you and on our list, we are sharing the 5 best lodges in Nelspruit, in no particular order.
What determines whether or not a lodge should be listed up there with the best, you have to take a number of different things into consideration.
Firstly, the lodge needs to be in a location that makes it convenient for the type of traveller that they are trying to attract. In Nelspruit, there are plenty of lodges in the town and there are also plenty out of town, so whether you are a business traveller or if you are in town on a short break, you have loads of options available.
Secondly, the lodge needs to offer guests a certain kind of experience. The rooms need to be nothing less than absolutely clean, comfortable and spacious. This sort of information is usually gained from reading online reviews, rather than reading what the lodge has to say about itself.
