Unique Kruger Big 5 Safari Experience

The beauty of your stay at Kruger Gate Hotel is your incredible access to the Big 5 animals and game-rich reaches of the southern Kruger Park. We are situated on the bank of the Sabie River, less than a minute’s drive from the Paul Kruger Gate – a safe access point to the Park that offers the most direct route to the Skukuza Camp, known as the ‘Capital’ of the Kruger Park, and to the Skukuza Airport. Kruger is world-famous for its spectacular abundance of wildlife and outstanding safari experiences.

Kruger is world-famous for its spectacular abundance of wildlife and outstanding safari experiences. It is home to 147 species of large mammals, a greater diversity than any other game reserve in Africa. With 517 recorded avian species, Kruger is also a bird-watching paradise.

I had a amazing stay at this hotel. Being in the middle of the wildlife and seeing animals made this an unique experience! The hotel is located next to Kruger National Park which made it convenient and accessible for the safari tours.

The staff at this hotel were helpful with arranging safari tours and provided a delicious to go box lunch for early tours. My safari was with Kurt Safari which was amazing!

The restaurant staff were the highlight of my stay. They were absolutely amazing and kind! I sat at the same table every night and had the pleasure of having the best server! I don't remember her name, but she was very kind and attentive as I was traveling solo. The breakfast, lunch, and dinner at this hotel was phenomenal!

I ate so much during my stay as the hotel had a variety of food options! I had breakfast and dinner included, but they do have a bar near the pool that sells lunch as well.

I will always treasure my time at this hotel. It was one of the most unique hotel experiences of all of my travels so far! I would highly recommend!!

Prachtig hotel en wat een ontvangst! Je bent er zo welkom!
Het hotel is volledig geïntegreerd in de natuur en ligt bij de ingang Paul Kruger gate! Alles wordt zo geregeld voor jou! Enorm vriendelijke staff waarbij ze de bevolking werk geven! De sfeer elke avond bij het avondeten is onbeschrijfelijk! Het is genieten van de pure Africaanse cultuur! Het zwembad geeft uitzicht op de sabie rivier waardoor je zo laar olifanten ziet voorbij kolen terwijl je aan het zwembad ligt!
Wij hadden helaas geen goed weer..maar daae kan natuurlijk het hotel niets aan doen… de periode maart is het duidelijk dat het weer echt heel wisselvallig is….

Die perfekte Lage zum Skukuza Airport (17km).
Die kurze Entfernung vom Hotelgelände zum Paul Kruger Gate; nur die Brücke vom Sabie River überqueren (1,5km).
Das unglaublich freundliche und immer hilfsbereite Personal!!
Die schön eingepasste Hotelanlage in die Vegetation und das Gelände direkt am Ufer des Sabie River.
Das außergewöhnlich gute und vielseitige Essen!
Die tollen, vom Hotel angebotenen, Safaris.
Einfach Alles ohne Ausnahme!!

Nice and relaxed , even if it is a big hotel never had the \"holiday factory\" feeling. Lots of animal sighting from the pool area. Perfect combination of relaxed holiday and Kruger Park visits. Breakfast and diner are amazing with good food and so many choices!

Tolles Hotel, direkt am Gate

Funcionários muito educados, muito receptivos e preocupados em auxiliar.
A área da piscina com a vista aos bichinho é algo fora da realidade.
Tinham bichinhos pela acomodação soltos ( maravilhoso)
O quarto era bem limpo, amplo. Banheiro tbm. Os cosméticos muito bons.
Café da manhã bem gostoso, mas precisam de exaustores.
Adorei os safáris.
