Limited coffee supplies in the room felt subpar, with just one satchet and rooibos tea instead of an expected selection. The bathroom ceiling visibility with numerous spider webs and dead mosquitoes was off-putting, and during our early checkout, reception was absent despite promises for availability at 5:30 AM. Noise from nearby guests lingered until well past midnight, affecting overall comfort.

During our stay in a Deluxe Double or Twin Room with River View for three nights, we enjoyed watching hippos and rhinos during dinner, which was a highlight. However, the noise from nearby guests late at night was disruptive, and attention to detail could improve, as we found limited coffee supplies and some cleanliness issues in the bathroom. Still, the view was impressive, making this a great spot for families.

Loved the stunning view of wildlife from the room. Only downside was the limited dinner menu options.

The balcony view offered breathtaking wildlife sightings.

During my stay, the air conditioning in my room malfunctioned, leaving me uncomfortable for a night. I also experienced issues with the shower, as the water pressure was disappointingly low and the drain was blocked. Additionally, the overall dining experience left much to be desired, with poorly prepared meals and limited options on the menu.

We stayed for 2 nights in a Deluxe Double or Twin Room with River View at Riverview Inn. The spacious room was fresh and clean, offering stunning views of the Crocodile River right from our balcony. The staff were welcoming and provided excellent service, making our dining experience on the deck even more enjoyable.

No bar facility available.

The stunning view of the Crocodile River right from my balcony provided constant wildlife sightings, including hippos and elephants, which was truly breathtaking.

One downside was the limited coffee supply in the room, with only one sachet available, which felt a bit inadequate for a two-night stay.

a breathtaking view of elephants from the deck! !

spacious room, pristine pool

slight noise disturbance

beautiful river views and nearby attractions for weekend explorers

during my stay, I was thrilled to enjoy a stunning view of elephants and hippos from my balcony. The short distance to the Malelane Gate of Kruger National Park made it super convenient for a quick park visit.

a mixed bag experience

The view from my room was truly breathtaking, with constant wildlife sightings just outside my window. I enjoyed a spacious room that offered both comfort and relaxation. The staff members were friendly, going above and beyond to ensure my needs were met during my stay. The pool area provided a lovely retreat, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

However, the noise from neighboring guests was a bit disruptive at times.

the view of a large group of elephants was stunning and unforgettable.

our stay at riverview inn was fantastic. the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. the location on the banks of the river was perfect for viewing wildlife. we even saw a hippo in the river and an elephant across the bank! the balcony view was simply amazing.

Spacious rooms with a gorgeous river view. Wi-fi was slow at times.

Loved our stay here! The spacious room had great air conditioning, and we enjoyed relaxing by the pool and on the sun terrace. Just a heads up, the stairs to the first floor can be a bit tricky, but it didn’t dampen our experience. 😊
