Palapye Guesthouse is registered with the Botswana Tourism Organisation as a guest house with 17 rooms, which makes it larger than most properties carrying that licence class. Like Palapye Hotel it appears on the register but not on the international booking channels.

Facilities at Palapye Guesthouse
We list no facilities here. The official register records the licence class and address but not the facility detail, and no other verifiable source was available, so anything more would be guesswork.
Location and access
In Palapye on the A1 between Gaborone and Francistown. The register does not give a plot address and we have not invented one.
Palapye, and why it is on this site
Palapye sits on the A1 between Gaborone and Francistown, at the junction for Serowe and the Khama Rhino Sanctuary. It is a coal and university town rather than a tourist one, and almost all of its accommodation is built for contractors, students’ families and people driving the eastern corridor.
For travellers it is a useful place to break the drive, and it is the obvious base for a Khama Rhino Sanctuary visit if you would rather not camp. Several of its properties appear only on the national register and never on a booking channel.
Who it suits
- Travellers breaking the Gaborone to Francistown drive.
- Groups needing several rooms in one guest house.
- Anyone happy to contact a property directly rather than book online.
