The location is great. Close to a collection of shops and banks to get cash.
Close to Kruger, and to the local golf such S leopard creek, where I played.
The bed was comfy. The bathrooms were well equipped. The veranda looking into croc river was lovely and peaceful. Great value.

FAQs about hotels in Malelane
What guests said about Malelane:
- 10Scored 10
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'.

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

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 € 65.80 per night8.9Scored 8.9FabulousRated fabulous· 887 reviewsThis is an awesome location from which to explore Kruger national Park. It is just 10 minutes drive from Malelane Gate, which is less crowded than some. The amazing thing is you practically don't need to leave the hotel because the park is right across the river. From the deck of the hotel we saw a rhino grazing right on the shore, elephants, 3 sets of mother with baby hippos, (who've made this spot their little nursery), monkeys, impala, waterbuck, and numerous types of birds.
AnnUnited States - From € 109.33 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 468 reviews.The self catering unit had everything I needed. The unit was spotless and cleaned daily. I liked the view of the dam and the mountains from my unit. Reception was friendly and helpful always (engaged with Letta). The checking in and checking out was seemless. Thank you Letta for organising Almond milk for me; highly appreciated as adhering to a vegan diet can be tricky in foreign town. Thank you Jimmy for the game drive at Kruger National Park; the experience was priceless.
