Choosing a room type: Kruger Gate accommodation that’s best for families.

Kruger Gate Hotel, situated on the banks of the Sabie River and less than a minute’s drive from the Paul Kruger Gate offers families 4-star accommodation and a safe, comfortable base from which they can explore the game-rich southern region of South Africa’s greatest National Park.

It’s a huge advantage for families that children under 12 years stay free when sharing accommodation with their parents. This includes their breakfasts and dinners. For family members over 12 years, a third-person supplement is payable.

Here are the best Kruger accommodation options for families:

  • There are 33 Kruger Deluxe Family rooms with 2 Queen beds, an ensuite bathroom with both a tub and a walk-in shower, and a separate toilet
  • 20 Kruger Deluxe Family rooms with 2 King beds that can be arranged as 4 single beds are also available, featuring an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, and a separate toilet
  • The Nkanyi Suite is a great choice for larger family groups who want an exclusive, luxury Kruger experience. There’s one ensuite bathroom with a tastefully designed living area with a fireplace and dining and lounge zones leading out to a secluded, enclosed patio, plunge pool, braai facilities and an outdoor shower. 3 adjacent Suites turn Nkanyi into a hub for bigger families. Nkanyi also features a kitchenette with butler service for private, in-room dining occasions.
  • While the focus of your stay with us will be adventuring into the Kruger on safari, there’s plenty to keep the family entertained when you are relaxing at the hotel. The family pool complex includes a wading pool for little ones. There’s putt-putt, volleyball and tennis for family games. Wherever possible, we like to be inclusive of children, so you will find Kiddies menus for lunch or in-room dining, as well as at the Lapa Restaurant dinners.

Guest Reviews

Amazing stay, food, decor, amenities, rooms were great and would love to stay here again. Safari was also amazing with a great guide, Culture. Conveniently located 1min away from the Paul Kruger Gate. Highly recommend staying here.

Honestly, a trip of a lifetime. The hotel is beautiful and sits in a natural environment with animals around like monkeys, baboons and deer. The staff are equally as fantastic and go out of their way to help you and make you have the best experience.

The pool next to the bar is something to behold as you will often see animals at watering holes just the other side of the pool - we saw elephants, giraffes and zebras whilst having a swim. An incredibly experience. I couldn\'t recommend this hotel enough and can\'t actually fault it in anyway. This hotel is not a glitzy 5 star city hotel, it is a 5 star safari hotel with everything you would possibly need for a fantastic break.

There are 2 swimming pools on site that are immaculate, there are tennis courts and mini golf for some down time too. At the mini golf you will be joined by some extra visitors in warthogs and monkeys which just add to the fun of it all.

We booked our Safari through Tour Compass and I have to give a special mention to John, our driver and safari expert. He was just the best, so knowledgeable and understanding and helped us throughout our week stay to spot the big 5 and much much more. If it is a safari experience you are looking for then this is the place to go.

Wonderful hotel near the gate kruger.
We had a quadruple room, spacious as well as beds. The hotel is perfectly set in the natural setting. In the morning we were woken up by the frantic baboons that were also present in the pool area: beautiful. There we also enjoyed the spectacular sunsets. Great food and there is so much variety, possibility to taste local meats such as crocodile or antelope.
We stayed two nights, wish we could have stayed more time.

We booked this hotel based on reviews and online photos, and it exceeded all expectations. Having stayed at many all-inclusive resorts and boutique properties, we can confidently say this was one of the very best. The stay was outstanding — from the cleanliness and comfort to the food, services, and overall hospitality.
As vegetarians, we were pleasantly surprised by the exceptional food options provided, thanks to the combined efforts of our tour operator and the hotel management. The staff went above and beyond to cater to our requirements, always with warmth and genuine care.
A special mention goes to Simon, Pholecy, and Johannes, who gave wonderful attention to all our food requests. Their cordial and friendly service made our experience truly memorable.
We highly recommend this property for anyone visiting Kruger National Park — it’s the perfect place to relax, enjoy, and feel at home.

Hotel muito bem localizado - praticamente na porta do parque, com café e jantar excelentes. A piscina de frente para o mato é espetacular e o atendimento foi bem positivo. O mesmo oferece diversas opções de tours pela região, o que facilita também para planejamento da viagem. Quarto bonito, banheiro limpo, bom chuveiro e cama ótima.
