EXCELLENTVerified Wunderschöe Lodge in zentraler Lage Gemütliche Lodge mit kleinen Häuschen. Augestattet mit Kühlschrank und Tv. Im Außenbereich, Tisch mit Stühlen. WLan in jedem Zimmer. Swimmingpool ist auch vorhanden. Frühstück auch gutt. Die Lodge kann man empfehlenVerified ABOVE EXCELLENT We had a last minute booking for the weekend and there was a complex available of which we have enjoyed ourselves and could not have chosen a better place.Really a place of excellence will surely go there again.Verified Great place, super friendly I had a great time here even if it was only for a short few days. I was there for a tradeshow in the Gallagher convention center; it's only a 5 minute taxi ride away. Fiston, the assistant manager, who you can always find around, is super friendly and helpful! He arranged everything I asked: a dedicated taxi, brought me drinks even when the bar was closed, called for my take away food, ... couldn't ask for a nicer service than he was offering. They have a nice little pool and an honesty bar (grab your own drink and mark it on a card). They have nice breakfast, small but nice. Friendly lady is making eggs just the way you like them. Near the Mall of Africa - huge mall with 300 western style shops. I hope to be able to go back in a short while. Thanks a lot for everything!Verified Good option near Gallagher Convention Center The main house is a wonderful thatched building with an honesty bar. We stayed in one of the cottages in the beautiful gardens which was well appointed with TV, heaters and electric blanket. I didn't realise how cold Joberg can get during the night! There is also a pool (bit cold out of summer season) tennis court, pool table and outdoor BBQ area. Breakfast was excellent with loads of choice, yoghurts, fruit and a cooked full english. You can ring for a take away in the evening but we aren't that keen on take away so opted to go to the new Mall of Africa a couple of times - walked there, arranged for taxi back (not safe to walk after dark anywhere near Joberg) and once got a load of lovely salad stuff from the Mall and borrowed plates and cutlery from the Lodge. Fiston, the assistant manager is very helpful at arranging taxis. For cat lovers there are two beautiful siamese cats!Verified Nice Indeed. The spacious garden add a sense of spaciousness to the accommodations. Safe parking on the premises and the rooms are large enough with a nice bathroom (Shower only). A lovely swimming pool is available as well as a tennis court for the sporty. The main house sports the dining room and honesty bar as well as a pool table and fire place for those chilly winter nights. It is centrally situated in Midrand and within walking distance of the massive Mall Of Africa. The rooms are very quite and it is a nice place to relax. The Lodge also sports a Lapa with Braai facility. The rooms have a full satellite TV service (DSTV). Free unlimited WiFi is available in the rooms as well.Verified A slice of heaven My fiance,son and I drove down to midrand for a friends sons birthday. We didnt know where would spend the night and so we checked the net for places close by. I looked at african footprints lodge and was attracted by the pictures. I called and make a booking for that night.I had obviously called a few other places and they were eaither fully booked or had a standard double bed, having a 2year old child with 2 adults we needed a slightly bigger bed. African footprints lodge met our needs, they have a huge bed, the price was inclusive of a full buffet breakfast and the staff were absolutely amazing. We had overslept for breakfast and they were kind enough to call us and let us know they are about to close the kitchen for breakfast and would give us a few more minutes so that we dont miss breakfast..now that was 5star hospitality and superb service. Keep up the great work nono.Verified A little piece of heaven in the middle of JNB jungle This lodge is amazing, the minute you come in you forget the noise and crowd of suburbian Johannesburg. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the breakfast is super good and copious, the grounds are beautiful, and above all the service is brilliant, very attentive and friendly staff. Try Dada's kitchen for diner, cheap, abundant and delicious.Verified Paradise A excellent property managed by generous people. I and my wife loved the stay at African Footprint Midrand. We were exhibitors at SAITEX fair held in June 2014 and the convention center was very close to it. I must say that hospitality extended to us was excellent. Hemansu Tewari IndiaVerified Very relaxing After staying quite a few different places in Johannesburg on various trips, we have finally found a place that is a great value and a great place to relax. The garden setting is really nice and makes you feel very removed from the busy city. Very welcoming and friendly. The rooms are really simple and nothing fancy, but the bed had very nice linens and was really comfortable. Only complaint was that the shower head in our room was super low so we had to crouch down to wash our hair. Other than that, it was a perfect stay!
