The Grand Patel is a 23-room selected-service hotel on Plot 5043 at Newstance, Selebi-Phikwe. It is registered with Botswana Tourism as an operating hotel-class establishment. Twenty-three rooms makes it one of the larger properties in the town, which still runs on business travel more than tourism, and it is a practical base for the road south into the Tuli Block and the Zanzibar and Platjan crossings.

Facilities at The Grand Patel
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
Plot 5043, Newstance, Selebi-Phikwe, Central District, east of the A1 at Serule and north of the Tuli Block.
Francistown, and why it is on this site
Francistown is Botswana’s second city and a working one: mining, freight and the road and rail routes to Zimbabwe and South Africa. Very few people come here for a holiday, and the accommodation reflects that.
It matters to travellers anyway, because it is the practical overnight between the Tuli Block, the Makgadikgadi and the border posts. Many of its beds are in bed and breakfasts on suburban plots that never appear on an international booking channel.
Who it suits
- Groups and work parties needing several rooms in the east
- People working in Selebi-Phikwe and the copper belt
- Travellers heading south to the Tuli Block
- Drivers using the Zanzibar or Platjan border crossings
