en-suite bedrooms, which are decorated in an African theme making
you feel part of the environment. Each one includes a hairdryer,
direct dial telephone, satellite TV, mini bar, hire safe,
tea/coffee making facilities as well as a separate lounge. As much
of the natural bush as possible has been left in the grounds, a
veranda reminiscent of a tree house takes the guests to bedrooms
echoing with the sounds of the night.

A buffet-style breakfast is served in the restaurant, as is lunch
and dinner. The Protea Hotels Kruger Gate's new pool deck bar
overlooks the Sabie River, perfect for game viewing - guests can
sit back and relax and absorb the amazing sounds of nature while
sipping on a refreshing cocktail. As the dinner drum sounds, one of
the most memorable moments of your visit will be dining under the
stars. The lapa offers just this experience, along with true
African cuisine including game and bubbling potjies of fragrant
delicacies.
