Reviews for Royal Game Guest House

Review 1：For breakfast only starts at 7 so means if you want to go to Kruger you will never have time to wait for the breakfast. What's worse they remove all the things inside the room to another room without waiting for me arrive to the hotel. Really bad like this .

Review 2：The location is good , very convenient to go to Kruger national park

Review 3：When we arrived our bedsheet and pillows was not changed, it was full of grease from food and foot prints from previous guests, we had to ask 3 times to get it changed. The patio chairs outside the tv were smelly and dirty, wifi was a bit weak.

Review 4：Staff was friendly and facility has everything you need, has enough parking with secuirty guards at night for peace of mind.

Review 5：1St room didnt have a bathroom door room very small, no comfortablechairs to watch tv. I send an email and we were moved to a bigger room.The reception area is not accessible for guests. The next day we left at7:15 after the 7:00 breakfast was not served. This is not a 4-star lodgeit is a 2-star guesthouse.

Review 6：It was close to Kruger Park Phalaborwa. Airconditioning in rooms.

Review 7：maybe it is necessary the mosquito net. For breakfast it would be appreciated the addition of hot milk and express coffee.

Review 8：The position of lodge is very good, near to the town centre and Kruger Park Gate. Owner and Staff are lovable. In general, breakfast very good with delicious jams! Accomodation very comfortable!

Review 9：Bed was abit hard and our ensuite was small

Review 10：Great location not far from Kruger Park Gates. The rooms were clean and the breakfast was fantastic. The staff at reception were also very helpful on where to drive in Kruger.

Review 11：spacious, well furnished room. Quiet but convenient location close to main road and shops and phalaborwa entry gate to Kruger. Evening meal on request - good value. Nice breakfast

Review 12：Nothing against this hotel in particular, but DO NOT use road R40 from Mica, there are so many potholes I wouldn't call this a road! Rather make a 50km detour via Gravelotte. You will still spare your car, and still save time.

Review 13：Warm welcome by the manager, he gave us good tips to shop around town before going in the park. Good and complete breakfast with fresh fruit and yogurt, a nice touch. Our room was large and clean, with a functioning modern AC. Nice terrace for eating or having a drink after a day in the park.

Review 14：Coming from Johannesburg by car, we arrived quite late, but everybody was kind and welcoming. We had no problems finding a parking space inside the unit (you need this if you drive a car in South Africa). The room was really beautiful, clean and comfy. The breakfast was absolutely great: a cooked dish along side a Swedish buffet with lots of choices. Marie and the staff were very friendly making our stay as pleasant as possible. We enjoyed every moment spent at this guesthouse and for our next trip, this will be a "must stop".

Review 36：Nothing to complain about!

Review 37：Everything was outstanding. We were surprised how big the bathroom was :) Close to Phalaborwa gate entrance Kruger park, which was why we booked this hotel. Staff & hotel manager are very friendly, breakfast was excellent!

Review 38：Wifi only in lobby.

Review 39：Very close to Phalaborwa gate of Kruger park. It seems that our reservation through booking.com hadn't been transmitted, but the staff was very helpfull and gave us a room without extra cost.

Review 40：There's a glaring problem with Royal Game, one that I cannot overlook and would cause me to not recommend it to others. The problem is that there are no doors on the bathrooms in the room. You can see the toilet from the bed, and there's no door or even curtain. Now, if that sort of thing is your bag (baby), then fine. But for those of us who are not into watching our significant others use the toilet, it was too much. We had to ask the other to leave the room every time we wanted to go. If they fix that problem, I'd gladly recommend this place, but until then, I'd pass.

Review 41：Friendly staff. They forgot to pick me up from airport, but made it up to me. Very close to Kruger Phalaborwa gate.

Review 42：Wifi in lobby is too far and it will be appreciate on room.

Review 43：Here is very nice and breakfest is also very good.they give us a lot of travel suggestions.We glad to return next time.

Review 44：Lack of electricity for the whole stay made my stay very unpleasant and expected to pay full amount.Spent sunday without electicty has to have cold bath.We expect the game house to have back up generator for event like that.

Review 45：Good employees and helpful.

Review 46：The hotel is located between to main road and if you have a light sleepyou should be wake up by the noise of traffic early in the morning.

Review 47：The assistance I found with the staff of the hotel was efficient. Homemade break fast was simple but delicious.

Review 48：Although the power problems were not your fault, it is most disappointing to arrive at your destination, to find that you don't have a booking after all / are over-booked, due to your power problems, you didn't have our booking, then need to be shipped off to another guest house, and then to have no hot water is most frustrating when you've paid the full rate.

Review 49：Great location for overnight stay before entering Kruger

Review 50：There is no door for the bathroom. That was a bit strange
