Fantastic Hotel

(Translated by Google) A very nice hotel right by Kruger Gate. Just a 4-minute walk away. Very friendly staff, Donation was so helpful and a wonderful woman. They did everything they could to accommodate us. The rooms are very clean and spacious. The food is delicious, with something for everyone. The infinity pool is right by the river; we could see hippos and gazelles. All in all, definitely book it. Our Zweli was very accommodating.

Relaxing time at Kruger Gate Hotel. Staff were wonderful, rooms were comfortable. Incredible view from the pool area (see hippos and other wildlife from here). Convenient safari tours booked through the hotel. Suggest improving safaris by starting the afternoon drives at 2pm instead of 1pm, for better viewing of the animals around sunset.

Donation is the best

Wow!! We had an amazing stay at Kruger Gate Hotel and cannot recommend enough! The staff are anll incredibly warm and helpful, the rooms well sized and the food delicious - particularly the pool bar.
The viewing deck from the pool is phenomenal and so active with wildlife, worth an afternoon!
The safaris were excellent, Harold was an exceptional guide with immense knowledge of the animals, flora and fauna and such passion for the job. The safari with Harold were a particular highlight of the trip!
Make sure to check out the craft stands in front of the hotel, incredible carved items made by the talented women from local villages.
Thank you to everyone at Kruger Gate Hotel who made our trip so wonderful!

The hotel is fantastic. The staff are super helpful and friendly. The rooms are clean and well presented. The restaurant is a beautiful environment with great food on offer for all palettes. The hotel surroundings/views are out of this world. A special mention to the private dining team, especially Zenda who went above and beyond to ensure our experience was amazing. 10/10.

Great experience, nice hotel, nice staff, with a lot of accommodations, in a very nice location (close to Skukuza airport and one of the Kruger gates).

Fantastic stay at Kruger Gate hotel. Our room was gorgeous with a large comfy bed. The breakfast buffet was fantastic with lots of Gluten free options. We loved watching the monkeys at breakfast. The dinners were also very tasty and loved enjoying a drink round the fire after dinner. The main reason for our trip was the safaris. We did one each of the morning shared and the afternoon shared which were both good but our highlights was the full day private safari. It was organised great, they gave us a breakfast box before we left for the day and stopped at the local golf club for lunch. The hotel arranged all our safaris and airport transfers and it all ran super smoothly & we saw the big five. Also to mention the spa was great and lovely to have a massage overlooking the river with elephants in. Would definitely recommend this hotel

We had an amazing honeymoon stay and an unbelievable safari experience at Kruger Gate Hotel. Special mention to Harold our safari guide, his knowledge is world class and made each drive very memorable. If you get him or request him you will have an amazing time!

The whole team at the hotel were so helpful and we had the friendliest service I can recall at any hotel!

This place is absolutely incredible, all the staff are so friendly with a lovely disposition. Dinner is in a beautiful outdoor setting with such a wide range of beautifully prepared dishes. The safari Organization was superb with breakfast packs prepared in the mornings ready to take at 5.30am and they even have a barista on hand for those needing a good coffee. The location is right in front of the Kruger gate and you can see hippos, kudu, impala and crocodiles from the infinity pool area.

Magnifique hôtel avec des chambres très confortables. Nous avions une suite exécutive qui était juste splendide.
les animaux viennent à proximité de la terrasse (Kudu et Impala )
le restaurant et la piscine sont superbe … vue incroyable sur la rivière … on a vu des éléphants ainsi que des hippopotames.
La situation de l’hotel a 500 mètres de la gate. Les games drive organisés étaient top. La nourriture était excellents. On y reviendra avec certitude.
