    The Kruger National Park's gate is very close to the town.

    The Kruger National Park's gate is very close to the town. A pleasant town with everything you need for a stay in the Kruger. Roads to Phalaborwa, from Pretoria are in a good condition. Accommodation in Phalaborwa is plentiful.

    Plenty of bush lodges in tur surrouding area.

    Plenty of bush lodges in tur surrouding area. It has many options and you can choose to stay at what suits your budget. Close to the Kruger Phalaborwa gate. Just make sure to have a bigger car such as 4x4 for the gravel roads.

    The place was very accommodating,5 KM from Kruger National park ,the host was very friendly she provided us with everything we needed she even offered us to use her kitchen as rooms are just for sleeping and showering so we had a great time and hope to have stayed longer they just need to clean their pool.

    It is a typical mining town with adequate infrastructure.

    It is a typical mining town with adequate infrastructure. Some roads are in poor condition. The town however has beautiful winter climate and is right next to the Kruger National Park. Phalaborwa is a good and affordable alternative if accommodation in the Kruger Park is a challenge. Good shops and restaurants in down town.

    Phalaborwa is a mining town, and has deteriorated somewhat in last 15 years, but has a good clean mall and popular shops like Woolworths. Game can be spotted all around and the entrance 1km from town to Kruger Park further enhances its attractiveness. A good hotel and eatery -Bush Terrace- can be found right at the gate.

    Phalaborwa itself has little to offer and is not a vibrant or well maintained town. Its only real advantage is fast access to Kruger. Hoedspruit is a more interesting and prettier town with interesting coffee and other shops to visit when taking a break from game viewing in Kruger. Orpen gate is not too far from Hoedspruit.

    We didn't need breakfast, the location to Kruger National Park was perfect. We were super impressed with the kitchen appliances and the facilities, they were well stocked. Everything was wonderfully clean and the hosts were so friendly and accommodating. I recommend this accommodation for whatever needs you may have whilst visiting Phalaborwa.

    We slept over on our way to the Kruger National Park. The guest house offered all what we needed, the rooms are spacious and nice, breakfast was delicious and Zandri's assistance was extraordinary, especially to assist a guest who encountered problems with his vehicle on his way to the guest house. Ten out of ten !!

    Isabella and Jan were very welcoming and helpful. All the staff were pleasant. The guest house has a nice peaceful and easygoing atmosphere. The location is near to one of the Kruger Park entrances and safaris were easy to book through the guest house. We had several meals here cooked by Jan who is an amazing cook.

    It was a first-time experience to visit Phalaborwa and staying at Casa Leitao surely made the visit worthwhile. A walking distance into town (for those who love a good walk), the convenience of a service shop nearby, a safe environment, and friendly staff made my stay worthwhile.
