Foresters is famous in Eswatini for great food in a pastoral country-hotel setting, but it's also a lovely conference venue. Personal attention from the proprietor, unobtrusive waiters and tasteful decor made for a memorable event. As for the cuisine, 4 stars has now become 5.

A friends getaway

Reviewed By SwaziTRAV

Magical. Maduba has something very special about it. The views of the surrounding mountains, the beautiful tall trees and stunning flora, beautiful rooms and a lovely pool to dip into on those hot days! Mavis and Helen were very helpful. We stayed there when they were fully booked yet we had our own space and the whole environment was very relaxing. Be sure to check out the cool coffee shack where you can get a great cup of coffee! They grow and roast their own coffee there!! Would highly recommend.

A family yet professionally run hotel. The views are stunning and the hospitality great

The Scenery... AMAZING

Reviewed By EuniceKenya

This hotel is just...wow! Love it so much. The Scenery is breathtaking and serene! You get much more for what one pays. Real value for money and quite affordable. Planning to bring my daughter there during the school holiday later this year. Staff was friendly, the rooms were good except for when I found a cleaning staff washing my drinking glasses in the toilet sink. I will be back for sure ?

Hlane Royal National Park

Excellent and unique

Reviewed By JmaElias

So welcoming and genuinely african jungle that makes you want to come back quickly. The iconic elephants, lions and rhinos, among others, are part of the resident wildlife. The close, very close, encounter with rhinos on a foot safari, "led" by an excellent guide, causes a unique and unforgettable sensation. Thanks to all the staff for their hospitality, friendliness and professionalism.

Esther's Lodge

Located in the Malkerns Valley and nestled among pineapple fields, sugar cane fields and a pine forest. We are only 3 km from Malkerns town. The surroundings are serene and scenic. The landscape offers a stunning sunrise and beautiful mountain range. The luxury chalets and rooms are well suited for singles, couples, families and business travelers.

Disappointed

Reviewed By Petra N

The hostess is indeed very friendly, which is very much appreciated, but she was not around when we arrived. Instead, there was someone who gave us the keys to the four units that were allocated to us. I say allocated, because they were not the units we had booked, and were totally inappropriate for our combination of people. Unfortunately nothing could be done about this at that point of day. When talking to the hostess the following day, she explained that one of her guests had requested to stay longer, which she honoured by giving them one of the units we had requested. If it were not for the combination of people we had, it would not have been a big problem, but really, this is not the way to go about things. I would encourage the hostess to have a more professional approach, and also to upgrade the rooms a bit. We enjoyed the breakfast, though were served eight portions for seven people; it didn't give us the impression that our booking had been treated seriously.

Reviewed By noziphoh2020

Wifi is good. Spacious conference room, for a small group though. The environment is peaceful more so because the guesthouse is outside town. Clean rooms. I feel like the bathrooms are small though. The food is good especially lunch and supper. I remember this other day we had indigenous chicken for supper? the pool is alright. One gets a good view on Madonsa townships which is refreshing more especially in the morning
