Super Hotel am Kruger Gate
Pros:

Perfektes Hotel am Kruger Gate. Die ganze Anlage war für uns ein Traum mit super schönen Blick von der Terrasse auf den Sabie River (mit Hippos). Hotel nicht ganz billig, aber günstiger als die mega teueren Lodges im Park. Preis war inkl. HP. Abendessen (Buffet) war hervorragend. Mit das beste was wir hatten. Auch das Frühstück war super. Draussen sitzen direkt am Busch. Zimmer modern eingerichtet (nicht unbedingt afrikanisch). Haben hier uns mal 2 Tage gegönnt und würden nächstesmal garantiert länger bleiben - Daumen hoch!! ;)

Cons:

Alles PERFEKT!!

Pros:

We booked a 3 night stay in their newly renovated luxury room and it was nothing short of fantastic. Its spacious, bright and clean. The property itself is beautiful, looks like a massive treehouse. Its also big and there are lots of areas to explore. Everything is neatly kept and clean. There is a little shop that is open into the evening incase you want snacks and drinks. It also has safari essentials like maps, info guides and binoculars. Breakfast and dinners were absolutely amazing. Its a nightly rotating menu with lots of classic South African foods. Everything from springbok, kudu, crocodile, pap and wors, bobotie, malva pudding. We opted for shuttle pick up and drop offs from the airport which was super easy. We also booked a guided safari one day, and rented a car for a self drive safari the following day. Being able to book both directly from the hotel was very very convenient. Would absolutely recommend this place to anyone and cant wait to visit again.

Cons:

Nothing, this place is fantastic. Just keep an eye out for those cheeky baboons. :)

Pros:

Couldnt recommend it hotel more! The location is perfect (just a few meters from Paul Gate) and it’s beautifully surrounded by nature (we were even welcomed by a family of elephants on the road as we arrived). The entire staff was incredibly kind and attentive. Breakfast was rich and delicious, and dinner was a true experience in itself, both because of the setting and the live music.

La vacanza migliore di sempre!
Pros:

Organizzazione incredibile sia per le navette aeroportuali sia per i safari, personale gentile e disponibile, la camera ampia, spaziosa e pulita perfettamente, inoltre la cameriera veniva pure a chiudere le tende di sera. La colazione nella box per i safari è abbondante, il servizio di bar impeccabile e la cena a buffet un’esperienza unica con il sottofondo musicale molto piacevole, da ascolta magari davanti al braciere con la tisana calda!
