The facility is great. I would recommend expansion of services. Cutlery, BBQ facilities and other self catering utensils for those who use the facility for more than one night especially at Orpen gate. Swimming pool will also be ideally there. Overall impression is great

A WIN ALL THE WAY!

I've spent 10 nights at Sleepover Orpen over 3 trips and I cannot recommend it more highly, especially for the cost conscious traveller. Look, this is container living but it has everything you need: excellent security, wonderful staff, immaculate condition but there are a few glitches here and there but these are minor inconveniences eg. thin walls. Add to this proximity to Kruger Orpen gate and the accommodating staff there, it's a win all the way. You cannot go wrong if you choose to stay here. Tip: ask for a room away from the generator because this it might wake you up if you are a light sleeper but the camp is generally quiet and visitors ultra-considerate of each other.

BUDGET ACCOMMODATION AT ITS FINEST!

I booked for 1 night and stayed for two and I have no complaints at all. I arrived near midnight but security were expecting me. The cabin was meticulous, comfortable and spacious enough for 2 people. There’s a kettle and tea in the room but there is a coffee machine at reception which dispenses lattes, cappuccinos etc on the house. This is budget accommodation at its best. Three suggestions: arrive before sundown due to the poor condition of the roads; bring hangers for your clothing if you think that you might need them and ask for a unit away from the generator. We have scheduled power outages (loadshedding) every day and generator-noise can be a problem for light sleepers, otherwise, ear plugs or headphones recommended

Sleepover Orpen

The stay was comfortable. Friendly staff, adequately professional. I was very impressed by the Wi-Fi connectivity... Even better than my home! The line of communication needs lot of improvement. There's need to update the contact details and location on the website. I struggled to get the contact person and location. There's lot of room for improvement especially the reception and shop. Perhaps have some pamphlets/info let's. Add to the shelves some snacks to sell. The crockery and cutlery needs an upgrade. Perhaps it would also help to have a kitchenette with a microwave and sink
