I have been staying here for nearly 30 years and was quite disappointed with my recent stay. There was constant music being played at the pool/restaurant area very loudly almost 24/7 and the music wasn’t appropriate for a lodge with swearing and explicit sexual lyrics. I asked the barman to turn it down a number of times but he kept gradually turning it back up. It was so loud it was difficult to hold a conversation. This experience would make me think twice about going back. Also, there was a kettle in the room and some rusks but no tea or coffee??

Good to spend the nite before or after kruger
we were upgraded to the 'houses' at no charge since we were 5. They are spacious and bathrooms are good. The hotels has a very african and rustic feeling which was expected as it is situated just outside of kruger.

Room are awesome. They are kept clean and tidy. Very nice breakfast but I found dinner there mediocre. Staff at the reception does not seem very helpful. They prefer to reply Yes or No. We had to walk by another hotel nearby and speak to the reception yo get the information we wanted

Amazing and we would recommend Sefapane to anyone.
We added the day before our booking, the staff rearranged our accommodation so we did not have to move. All the staff were welcoming, friendly, helpful and professional. The packed breakfast for Kruger was tasty and filling for the two adults and two young children. The breakfast at the Lodge was great everything you could possibly want and delicious. Our accommodation was fantastic we could not have asked for more. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Close to Kruger Gate and airport
Overall very nice. Excursions are more expensive than going through the park, but, can be booked in advance. Our guides were friendly and knowledgeable. Staff was friendly and accommodating as our schedule fluctuated a bit making for a later check out than planned.
