Kruger Gate Hotel is a fantastic location right at the entrance to Kruger Park, making it incredibly convenient for wildlife enthusiasts. We took a safari organized by the hotel and were thrilled to see all the animals from the Big Five. The pool is wonderful and offers a stunning view of the river, where we had the unique opportunity to see elephants, antelopes, hippos, and giraffes coming right up to the edge.

What an amazing place!!! The tents were beautifully appointed, so luxurious. We had a front tent overlooking the river and were able to see lots of game at the river & around our tent, including Zebra, Impala, a Hyena, Bush Buck & Vervet Monkeys. The staff were wonderful, so attentive & helpful. Special shout-out to Aubrey who was on duty overnight, kept us safe & shared some stories with us. This was the absolute highlight of our stay in Kruger, we will definately stay again.

Our stay couldn't have been better. The staff made us feel like home since minute 1. The game drives were absolutely amazing, our guide was very knowledgeable and we saw lots of animals. The reserve is in front of a river, we saw elefants and lions from the room. It's a bit on the pricey side, but I believe it's worth every penny.

The lodge was super great with facility more than everything we needed, with private pools and bath tub and also day bed outside to see the view. Great location in the middle of Kruger NP. We could see elephant walking in the dry riverbed from our room. The food and drinks were excellent, good quality and great taste. Game drive was super cool and super. Our ranger was very professional, and experienced that we could track to see more animals outside the main roads. All staffs are helpful with great hospitality. It is expensive, yes, but it is worth the money for sure.

It is very conveniently located near the airport and elegantly furnished. Exceptional staff: helpful, friendly, smiling. For Europeans, almost too concerned with the guests’ well-being. They can solve any problem smoothly. Credit card payment everywhere. Didn’t check the pool, temperature wasn’t too inviting. We might come back on our honeymoon. The picture is the entrance of the village, the lodge itself is in the same style but more elegantly designed. If you wanna impress your gal, you’ve found the right place.

Spacious and comfortable room and lovely pool and gym facilities. Immediate access the park so great for self-drives or guided tours. The breakfast buffet was excellent but the evening buffet was pretty average, however, there are other restaurant choices within walking distance.

Skukuza is a gem—especially if you want that mix of real bush experience without giving up comfort. It’s one of the bigger camps in Kruger, so there’s quite a bit going on, but it still manages to feel peaceful. Favourite spots: We really enjoyed the early morning drives around the park. We were self-driving but cleverly kept an eye on the guided tour operator vehicles, and that helped us catch most of the big sightings. It made the whole experience exciting and rewarding. Where we ate: We mostly self-catered but had a nice meal at the Kruger Hotel on our first evening after arriving past 7 pm. Most of our shopping was done at the Park Shop inside the camp—it was well-stocked and convenient. We even bought some game meat (like kudu and impala), which we braaied once we returned to Rixile. It was delicious and made for a real bush-style dinner. Getting around: Very easy. The camp is drivable and well signposted. If you’re self-driving (as most people are), Skukuza is a great central base for game drives, with plenty of routes and good animal sightings in every direction. Activities for groups of friends: Game drives are the highlight—we had some unforgettable ones. I'd also suggest booking a guided morning drive and, if you're feeling adventurous, trying different types of game meat like wildebeest, crocodile, or impala. It’s a fun experience to share as a group. Evenings back at camp were equally special—braaiing under the stars, swapping stories, and comparing notes on sightings. Skukuza offers just the right balance of wild and comfortable.

I saw loads of the animals I was looking for, Giraffe, Rhino, Impala, Crocodile, Elephants Kudu, and even a couple of Lions and 2 Leopards. Saw the Wild Dogs and Buffalo. I also played golf at Skukuza Golf Club which was a bit of fun. Everyone was friendly and we always felt safe.

Located close skukuza gate of the Kruger national park. It was value for money. Friendly staff and helpful. Missed having a kitchen portion, as it was not self catering. Really enjoyed our stay there.

The game viewing was absolutely brilliant and our guide Nelly was excellent. Location, this hotel has serious WOW factor. The accommodation on the bridge is breathtaking, spacious and luxurious with mesmerizing views. The food was delicious and each meal was perfectly delivered. The all inclusive beverage selection was extremely generous. 3 swimming pools to pick from... it was a real treat. The staff really stood out. Bheki, Venolia, Nelly (our driver)... they were incredibly friendly and could not do enough for the guests.

Spacious, clean and modern lodge in very close proximity to the Paul Kruger Gate. Also has access to the Kruger Gate Hotel restaurants and pool. Clint was extremely hospitable and went above and beyond to ensure that we were comfortable and that all our needs were met! Daily housekeeping including washing and ironing of clothes as well as washing our dirty car the day we left was a pleasant surprise and is a rare service we have not encountered in our previous stays at other lodges!

Ten stars is not enough, it was a perfect experience! - Wonderfully modernized hotel. - Top quality staff. - Very nice restaurant. Because it's in a camp, you can take sunrise tours and night tours, I would recommend staying more than 2 days. Another big advantage was the ability to make reservations through Booking.com, while other accommodations at the camp had to be booked through the official national park website.
