Nestled in the shadows of the famous Thaba-Bosiu Mountain, about 25km from Maseru, lies Mmelesi Lodge – a modern hotel built in the traditional Basotho style. The complex is constructed in sandstone and the roofs are masterfully thatched. The main building consists of a restaurant, a conference room and a bar. Behind the main building are bedrooms. There are 38 rooms in all, (26 chalets/rondavels and 12 Standard rooms) within the premises of the lodge.
