Great location on the river bank. Elephant, water buck and more to see. Rooms spacious and comfortable. Friendly staff at reception and the restaurant. Close proximity to Malelane Gate. Good for a short stay - we stayed only 1 night, but there is a lovely pool and play space for kids, so probably also great for a weekend getaway.

What guests said about Malelane:

Easy access and quick access.
Easy access and quick access. We went off season but had pre-booked with SANParks, so a word of warning, don't pre-book unless it's high season to guarantee access. It doesn't specify this when booking, so we thought we were paying the conservation fees. You're free to roam around in your own vehicle and don't need an off-roader. There is an abundance of wildlife so you don't even need to stay for 3 days. We went for 2 hours on our own and saw elephants, rhinos, 'pumbas' and impalas. The toilets are few and far between so either go when you find them or you'll have to do it at the side of the road...without straying into the Bush. We then went for a full day with a guide who knows the area better and took us to the watering holes we probably would've never found on our own, where giraffes, wildebeest, hippos and elephants were all hanging out. A note about Malaria: we read that malaria was found around Kruger and had conflicting advice about taking anti-malaria tablets. In the end, we just covered our legs and arms (even though it was hot) and sprayed mosquito repellent with 50% deet. In short, Kruger is a must, but don't expect to see leopards or cheetahs, as they are, quite literally, impossible to 'spot'.cameighlItaly - 10Scored 10

Malelane is very beautiful and easy to get around.
Malelane is very beautiful and easy to get around. I loved the wild life the most, it was pleasant view to watch the birds and animals roaming around freely. The staff at the gate were very friendly and helpful. Wish I had more time to give a constructive review but went to the park for just half a day and managed to see some of the big 5 which was the purpose of my visit.Ratii - 10Scored 10

There is supermarkets for pre Kruger shopping on the road out of Malalene. Major roadworks taking place out of Malalene. Beware of trucks and drive carefully. Not recommended to drive in the dark while roadworks in place.lotterSouth Africa - 10Scored 10

Pastana still remains for me the most affordable best and well managed accommodation in Malelane. The Restuarant always meet my expectation of the wide spread of eats available. Malelane is very easy to navigate. It has all the amenities to accommodate a travelers needs The town is very clean . I would avoid accommodation I have not visited before. A picture tell a thousand tales. But some can be very deceiving and uncomfortable.Abrahams - 6.0Scored 6.0
Malelane town is totally unappealing.
Malelane town is totally unappealing. The only reason for staying in the suburb we stayed in was a) it is outside the town and b) is close to the Kruger Park entrance. We stayed in Mhlathikop suburb, which is nice and can be recommended.

- From KRW 106,642 per night9.3Scored 9.3SuperbRated superb· 28 reviewsIt is being in the Kruger National Park without having to pay park fees!! Right on the Southern banks of the Crocodile river, the Croc River lapa is a place to visit again and again. There is peace to be found in the quiet when you sit on the veranda gazing out over the river and the abundant wildlife comes and goes in regular in intervals. See hippo, crocs, waterbuck, impala, warthog, elephants, other species and the occasional predator on the river while sitting on the veranda.
Henk VallentgoedSouth Africa - From KRW 95,600 per night8.9Scored 8.9FabulousRated fabulous· 890 reviewsThis hotel has an amazing garden, terrace and restaurant area overlooking the Crocodile River on the perimeter of Kruger Park. The views are spectacular and you can observe many birds and animals. The highlight for us was watching a herd of elephants including some very young calves coming to the river to drink. Accommodation and parking were perfect and the staff were really welcoming and helpful. We are looking forward to visiting again!
Panfilo MSpain - From KRW 189,153 per night7.7Scored 7.7GoodRated good· 1,256 reviewsThe location of Pestana Kruger Lodge, to be so close to the Malelane Gate, is great. The room was good and well situated to form part of the beautiful nature. The deck with views over the Crocodile River is the best place to be after a day in the park. The menu of the restaurant is small, but the food was excellent! The breakfast was also very good. The staff was very friendly and helpful and we really enjoyed our stay here!
Marguerite NelSouth Africa - From KRW 95,600 per night8.9Scored 8.9FabulousRated fabulous· 890 reviewsThe view was amazing! From the deck a wide view across the river and the border of Kruger N.P. We saw elephants, deer, antilopes, a lot of birds etc walk/fly from the deck. The place is located in a quiet area, not to far from Malelane Gate. Rooms are spacious and clean. There is a nice pool, but we didn't get a chance to use it due to the weather. Safe parking area. Nice and polite staff. Food was very basic but tasted ok.robbyBelgium
