    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. 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.
