Budget Outside the gate Hotel group

The hotel in Hluhluwe town, now trading as ANEW Hotel Hluhluwe under the Anew Hotels group; older guides and even its Booking.com address still call it the Protea Hotel Hluhluwe. On 24 September 2026 Booking.com listed a family room with breakfast at R3,071 a night for two. Hluhluwe town is 17 km from Memorial Gate and the tar road to Hilltop. A hotel suits you if you arrive late from Durban, 242 km and about three hours away, and want a reception desk and breakfast. Choose it for convenience; the guesthouses in town cost a third of the price.

Pros and cons

  • In Hluhluwe town, 17 km from Memorial Gate
  • Family rooms available

What the park charges on top

The rate above buys you a bed. Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.

Park entryR320 per international adult per day at USD 1 = R16.35 (23 Sep 2026), 2025/26 tariff valid to 31 Oct 2026.
$20per person, per day

Three nights means three days inside, so two adults pay $120 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.

Ezemvelo's 2025/26 tariff lists no vehicle fee for Hluhluwe-iMfolozi.

Guests at Ezemvelo's own camps and at the private lodge inside the park pay the conservation fee for every day as well; it is not included in the accommodation rates.
