We had an amazing stay! The staff was so kind and friendly. We stayed two nights and did a full day game drive. The staff arranged for our game drive and since we left super early in the morning, they provided us with breakfast in a cooler bag. Dinner was amazing as well and the view from the balcony is beyond! Would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking to stay just outside the park (about 30 minutes to Crocodile Bridge Entrance).

Hotel limpo e organizado. Funcionários atenciosos e simpáticos durante toda estadia. O Crocodile Kruger é parecido com estilo de pousada, assim como todos na região. São pouquíssimos quartos, algo como 05 a 08 quartos, mas com comodidade, atenção e um bom serviço oferecido aos hóspedes. O café da manhã e o jantar estavam inclusos no valor do quarto e gostei bastante da comida.

Warm welcome from Johan the manager who couldn’t do enough to make our stay enjoyable. Perfect stopover enroute to Kruger National Park, crocodile bridge gate. Lots of animals wandering round the lodge and nice view of Cocodile River

O hotel fica situado em uma area de uma reserva, bem em frente ao Kruger Park. Se estiver de carro alugado e GPS nao tera problemas para chegar. O hotel é muito bonito, rustico e agradavel. Tem uma piscina boa com vista para o parque. A area de cima tem um deck para tambem ver o parque enquanto toma uma bebida. Os quartos sao grandes e espaçosos. O jantar assim como o cafe da manha sao bons. Nao precisa pagar estacionamento. O preço das bebidas é justo para o local. A internet nao funciona bem, e a energia eletrica caiu diversas vezes deixando sem luz, mas esse é um problema geral na regiao. O atendimento é muito bom e personalizado. Porem, se desejar ficar nesse hotel, deixo uma dica importante. Deixe sua mala sempre trancada com cadeado. Chegamos e logo ja fomos para o jantar, deixei a mala aberta (é um hotel pequeno, acredito que 6 quartos). Como estavamos jantando dentro do hotel, nao acreditei que alguem iria entrar no quarto, mas sim, entraram com o motivo de fechar as cortinas do quarto enquanto jantavamos e durante esse momento, abriram a mala e procuraram onde estava o dinheiro (acredite, estava bem escondido dentro de um bolso interno) e depois disso sumiu 100 euros da minha carteira. Apesar disso, recomendo o hotel, mas tenha em mente deixar trancado a mala com seus pertences e dinheiro 100% do tempo que nao estiver no quarto.Ja tinha lido uma outra avaliaçao com o mesmo problema no hotel. Enviei um email a gerencia notificando o ocorrido tambem, sem respostas.

Everything was perfect, the place, the staff, even the weather. If you want to have close encounters with nature, this is the place to stay. In addition of being very close to Kruger park.

Un 5 stelle meritate! Struttura adiacente al Parco Kruger sulla Crocodile River, ricca di coccodrilli (che non abbiamo visto) e serpenti (quelli si che ne abbiamo visti!). Personale gentile e cordiale coordinato da un manager super, attento a tutto! Cena e colazione ottima... L'unico punto debole è il WiFi per chi anziché godersi la pace e il silenzio del posto deve comunicare con il mondo. Un esperienza veramente ottima!
