Good place to stay .
Good affordable place to stay. The internet needs improvement. A good internet access is critical to travellers. The net is not available from the rooms which should be a rather easy fix nowadays. Also the owner seemed concerned about leaving it on continuously as it was mostly off.

This is our third time staying at Elephant's Nest. We hope to stay there many more times. Nico truly went above and beyond, this time, as we arrived in need of a new tire. We highly recommend Elephant's Nest to all.

Graskop is an excellent base if you are landing at Nelspruit and starting something in Kruger NP the next day. We found the host at this place very pleasant and nice to talk to and the place was fine.
