We know how essential a vibe-check is to today’s travellers. Reading guest reviews and social media comments can give you valuable insights into whether a hotel is going to live up to your holiday hopes and dreams.
A modern lodge with large windows, a pool, outdoor seating, surrounded by nature, featuring the 2024 Tripadvisor award

Since a South African safari holiday is often a once-in-a-lifetime experience, it’s especially important to do your research and ensure the accommodation and amenities check the boxes that matter to you.

That’s why we’re delighted to share that Kruger Gate Hotel has received a 2024 Tripadvisor Traveller’s Choice Award—an important recognition that places us in the top 10% of properties on Tripadvisor for consistently excellent service, value, cleanliness, location, rooms, and sleep quality.

Here’s one of our latest Tripadvisor 5-star reviews from a family who visited last month:
“Must stay!

Can’t praise this hotel enough. We stayed in the executive suite with our 1.5 year old. Beautiful clean room with wildlife visiting us on our private deck. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast, dinners and occasional pizza by the pool. During our stay we saw elephants, buffalo and hippos on the river while swimming. What impressed us most were the hotel staff. Every interaction no matter who it was, were friendly and engaging. We used the baby sitting services and would recommend it if you want some time alone to explore. Special thanks to Sarah and Divashnee from guest relations, for making this a trip we won’t forget.”

The location, the staff and the experience all just unbelievable. Had the most incredible trip here. The staff are all super friendly. The rooms are just perfect for a getaway and the amenities are top notch. Had the privilege of watching giraffe, elephants, hippos and waterbuck all from our loungers at the infinity pool

O hotel é lindo, a comida maravilhosa e o atendimento de toda a equipe foi incrível! Também amamos os safaris, principalmente pela duração mais longa do que eu via em outros lugares, porque isso proporcionou irmos para áreas mais distantes no parque. Pretendo voltar com certeza!! Esse hotel vai fazer parte das lembranças da viagem mais maravilhosa da minha vida!

Kruger Gate Hotel is our spoil for the year.

Food is excellent

Breakfast was delicious with an extensive range of fresh produce, the food was exceptional. Great location as it was a 3 minute drive to Kruger Park entrance with the Sabi river running alongside the property where you could watch the animals from Kruger Park. We stayed in a luxury room which was beautifully appointed.
We enjoyed a buffet dinner each night in a dinning area with an Africa ambiance, wood fire. It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy our safaris.

Amazing scenery and perfect location just at the Paul Kruger Gate🐾

De gerenoveerde kamers zijn prachtig, het ontbijt fantastisch en het diner in de boma een echt feest.
Het uitzicht over de crocodile river is geweldig en de afstand naar de gate perfect.
Het vriendelijke personeel wat ons welkom terug heette met een grote lach (waren hier zeven jaar geleden ook) en voor ons gaat dit zeker niet de laatste keer zijn in dit fijne hotel! We gaan eind half oktober weer 🥰

Wir hatten einen rundum perfekten Aufenthalt im Krüger Gate Hotel. Schon die vorab gebuchte Abholung vom Flughafen verlief reibungslos.
Die Mitarbeiter waren jederzeit freundlich, zuvorkommend und aufmerksam

Unser Zimmer war komfortabel, und die gesamte Anlage ist wunderschön und lädt zum Wohlfühlen ein.

Besonders hervorzuheben ist das abendliche Buffet, das mit seiner Vielfalt und Qualität absolut überzeugt hat – auch für Vegetarier gab es eine große Auswahl. Das Frühstück war ebenso ausgezeichnet. Die abendliche Atmosphäre mit Feuerstelle und teils musikalischer Begleitung war außergewöhnlich und gleichzeitig angenehm unaufdringlich.

Ein absolutes Highlight war unser vorab gebuchtes Boma Dinner mit privatem Dining – kulinarisch hervorragend und sehr stimmungsvoll. Ein besonderer Dank an Excellent :) Ein schönes Erlebnis war das phantastische Geburtstagsständchen, das uns unvergesslich bleiben wird.

Auch die Safari-Ausflüge ( ein Highlight) ließen sich unkompliziert buchen. Wir unternahmen eine Ganztagessafari sowie eine Nachmittags-Safari. Bei der Ganztagessafari gab es morgens vor der Abfahrt einen Kaffee und zusätzlich eine Lunchbox für unterwegs.

Fazit: Wir können das Krüger Gate Hotel uneingeschränkt empfehlen und würden bei einem erneuten Besuch im Krüger Nationalpark definitiv wieder hier übernachten.

Schöner Blick in den Park. 2min Fahrzeit zum Paul Kruger Gate. Geführte Safaris einfach über das Hotel buchbar (am besten vor der Reise anfragen). Super freundliches Personal. Eine unglaubliche Auswahl an Speisen zum Abendessen und Frühstück.

La vue incroyable depuis la piscine avec les éléphants qui se rapprochent de vraiment très près.

La qualité des repas le soir et l\'ambiance grâce au spectacle auquel on a assisté

Hôtel juste incroyable !
La piscine offre un panorama sublime, les chambres sont propres et vraiment agréables, et le personnel est au top, que ce soit pour le safari ou au sein de l’établissement. Le petit-déjeuner est très bon, et le buffet du soir aussi (seuls les desserts étaient un peu décevants). L’endroit est luxueux, calme et parfait pour profiter du cadre exceptionnel du Kruger.
