This B&B is better than expected. It is a B&B situated at a gated community. It is right at the Malelane gate. Perfect location. Staff was very friendly and very helpful. The breakfast setup is excellent. It feels like a good hotel, not a simple B&B. I'll certainly recommend this place to anyone.

Nice stop before going to Kruger

Got there late, checking in at 9:30pm. It was a little hard to find, but very nice once we found it. Nice manager, clean, good shower, very comfortable bed and good air conditioner. We were leaving too early for breakfast so they made us up a very nice to go bag with a sandwich and snacks with drinks. I would go back.

Kids had their own room with a separate bed for each. Full and half bath, along with refrigerator, was also nice. The staff packed a to-go breakfast such that we could leave early.

Perfeito

Está Guest House foi uma grata surpresa. Fica dentro de um condomínio muito elegante, muito perto do Malelane Gate. A infraestrutura é ótima, jardins muito bem cuidados, piscina cercada (caso vc tenha criança). O café da manhã com muita variedade, sucos, saladas de frutas, geléias, pães e ainda com a escolha do menu quente (ovos, salsichas, bacon, etc). Nós não jantamos lá nenhuma vez, pois para isso é necessário agendar, preferimos ir direto ao restaurante assim que saímos do Kruger, fomos 2 vezes no Hamilton e uma no Deck Restaurante. Ambos muito bom, porém Hamilton com uma maior variedade e com espaço infantil. A gerente do Barnstormers, Dannel, ela é simplesmente incrível. Está sempre disposta a fazer tudo para tornar nossa hospedagem mais feliz.

Schönes Hotel direkt vor den Toren des Krügerparks

Wir hatten das Charles Lindbergh Zimmer. Es war zwar relativ klein, aber für eine Nacht und 2 Personen Ok. Das Bett war ausgesprochen bequem und mann konnte gut schlafen. Besonderen Lob hat das Personal beim Frühstück verdient: Wir wurden mit einem Obstsalat empfangen, anschließend gab es nach Wunsch englisches Frühstück (Rührei/Omlett, Speck, Tomate, Pilze, etc.). Alles war sehr lecker!!
