Budget
Outside the gate
Ownership unconfirmed
A small guesthouse in Hluhluwe town, known to us from its Booking.com listing: on 24 September 2026 a budget double cost R765 a night for two, with a guest score of 8.3 from 60 reviews. We found no website at the obvious address and no statement of who owns it. Hluhluwe town is 17 km from Memorial Gate, the entrance to the park's northern Hluhluwe section and the road to Hilltop. From a town base you pay the conservation fee only on days you enter, but you must be back out before the gate closes, 19:00 in summer and 18:00 in winter. Choose it for a cheap bed between day drives.

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.
