Staying with the sisters who run the property and the other staff became increasingly pleasant with every passing day. Plus, I was more than comfortable in my room, where they don't skimp on pillows for those of us who like to sit up in bed to work. There's no generator on the premises for the load-shedding but that's normal for comparable properties. Just stay atune to the schedule is what I learned in southern Africa.

Great place to stay near Phalaborwa gate Kruger
The owner, Olga, was a wonderful host, gave us very warm hospitality and a lot of information about the local area. We slept comfortably and the breakfasts set us up for the whole day. Nothing was too much trouble for Olga and Lalamo is set in very pleasant gardens. The guest house is perfectly located only three or four minutes drive from Phalaborwa Gate and is an ideal, peaceful place to stay. We would be happy to recommend this guest house to anyone.

Awesome Venue
The owner and staff are very friendly and helpful. Very secured environment, clean and neat surroundings. A variety of great accommodation to choose from and the breakfast which is included in the rates are far too much, but very tastefully prepared. The location centrally situated between mid town and the entrance gate to Kruger National Park.Really great value for money.

It has very basic amenities with a great breakfast. Wouldn't complain much since it is very close to the gate of Kruger Park after all. The staff were quite helpful.

Lovely place with great value for money
I stayed at Lalamos on two occasions; upon arriving to Phalaborwa and my last two nights there and I would always again stay there again. It is a lovely guesthouse, with great service and very filling breakfast. The lady owning the place is really friendly and so helpful in all things. I greatly enjoyed my stay there and can highly recommend Lalamos to anyone!

GREAT VALUE JUST OUTSIDE OF KRUGER PARK
Great value for the money. Room is not luxurious but is nice and has good a/c, wifi and tv. A wonderful breakfast is included. In addition there were complimentary snacks and a complimentary bottle of wine in the room. Hard to beat at this price. The lady who runs the place is great!
