Swakopmund hotels

Pros: Breakfast and facilities were excellent.

Pros: The room was spotless and a great place to relax after a long drive. It was very helpful to have a mini fridge in the room and parking is secure.

Cons: Nothing - it was great.

Pros: Cosy and familiar place. Meike, the owner is friendly and helpful. Meike, the waitress was very nice. Excellent option.

Cons: Wi-fi. Does not work properly for iphone, on the room.

Pros: A very homely feeling, we experienced, while staying at this very well maintained guest house. The breakfast was very well customized. The location is such that leaves you in peace and at the same time all places of interest are nearby. The guest house is run by owners with their heart into it as is evident with the lovely gardens and overall decor, with 'guinea fowl' being its mascot.

Cons: Nothing really ... improved toiletries may add to the experience.

Pros: Delicious breakfast. Easy access to all restaurants and activities in the area. Very pleasant hosts. Really enjoyed the stay.

Pros: Friendly service, good location, best internet in Namibia, off-street parking, clean spacious rooms.

Pros: Excellent in all respects. Personal attention. The proprietor assisted us enormously with sorting out a damaged tyre on our rental car by phoning the rental company and providing directions to the tyre fitters. One small thing: there is a socket in the room that accepts most plugs - UK, Euro, US and Southern African. No need for an adaptor. I have never seen this anywhere else. How useful and how helpful.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: The quietness despite its central location. Beautiful garden and nice outdoor sitting.

Pros: perfect located in the city centre...landmarks, shopping facilities, restaurants in walking distance...nostalgic flair... excellent in-house restaurant...we had a huge , well equipped room ( e.g. Nespresso machine) with a balcony, which we liked very much ...secure parking was available ...very good breakfast with a wide range of food & beverages

Cons: If as a one night guest the complimentary shampoo and water would be replaced daily, I stayed two nights and the two bottles of water were used on the first day and not replaced. The same applied to the shampoo and liquid soap for the shower.

Cons: We could find no fault at all

Pros: Lovely big rooms, looking out onto a beautiful garden. The breakfast was fantastic! Free parking provided in a gated garage area.

Pros: The breakfast served private just outside the room in the small veranda was so delicious! We were there, having breakfast in the garden, with a cosy fleece (it was cold in the morning), a nice coffee, the kids playing in the garden...amazing! We arrived there on Christmas Eve, we haven't planned anything, they have a small barbecue area and they allowed us to use, it was a lovely Christmas Eve in the garden. The room was spacious, the bed comfortable, there was a bed for our daughter and a cot to our son, very good ones. The staff was very friendly and the place beautiful! Very well located and easy to circulate. Everyhing nearby. We loved our stay there! I definitely recommend and I would love to come back. Otherwise, Swakopmund is a lovely city, very good restaurantes and things to do! We loved it!

Cons: Everything there was perfect!

Pros: This is a very small boutique hotel that offers all the right finishing touches. It is simple, yet clean and well decorated. Each room has a small front porch where you can enjoy a catered breakfast each morning. If you are looking for a small boutique style hotel that is centrally located and focuses in on quality service, this is your place.

Cons: Nothing - we had a wonderful stay.

Pros: I loved my stay at The Brigadoon. Everyone there was so friendly and helpful. I was set to meet up with another tour group and they explained the process to me as soon as I checked in. The room was amazing. The breakfast was great. Highly recommend this place!

Pros: Everything. It was a nice experience.

Cons: I have nothing wrong to tell.

Pros: - The garden - The superb breakfast - The quietness - The friendly staff from Clive to the breakfast crew

Cons: - The small beds put together instead of a big bed. - The heater was barely enough to heat the room and we are not sure if it would be adequate for upcoming winter nights.

Pros: Great stay in a lovely place.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Very friendly and helpful manager on duty

Pros: Nice, spacious room. Very friendly and helpful staf. On walking distance from the centre.

Pros: Great location, private parking, secure, clean, breakfast on the terrace outside your room. Friendly team, good front of house management. Lots of info about local activities to hand.

Cons: The aluminium Bathroom door let the room down a bit but guess that’s just being picky.

Pros: The Stiltz is a class of its own in terms of architecture, location, service and staff friendliness. Thanks Margaret for organizing the second night and the tip of Erindi for the onward journey.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Very nice Location on the beach

Cons: -

Pros: Spectacular views with stylish well thought out accommodation.

Pros: Staff very friendly and helpful. The room very clean and spacious and delicious breakfast.

Cons: It was a little bit cold in the room, but nothing that prevented us for a good sleep.

Pros: Property is clean and staff is great. Good breakfast.

Pros: The staff were very helpful and friendly, view, breakfast and accomodation excellent. Highly recommended.

Pros: We stayed at the Villa, which is huge,

Cons: My only criticism is that the villa has not got a kitchen, so to make a cup of coffee you had to fill the kettle in the bathroom, and then do the washing up in the bathroom.

Pros: Cool hotel; far enough from the city to feel isolated but close enough to get to restaurants easily

Pros: Very nice and helpful staff. The Location is definitely Special.

Cons: Nothing I didnt like

Pros: Something different, nice design, nice big rooms. Beautiful bathroom and surroundings. Staff very helpful. Very nice breakfast.

Cons: No place to relax outside the rooms, a small terrace but no privacy. No bar, no restaurant except breakfast.

Pros: Lovely room, very spacious, modern and clean. Very good value for money. Arrived late and security staff let me in, staff very friendly and accommodating. Bottled water provided in room. Good location. Odd that bathroom and shower is in a glass cubicle in bedroom, but still a nice set up and not an issue as a solo traveller.

Cons: Nothing, really enjoyed my stay, limited parking but was still provided with somewhere to park on sight behind the locked gate.

Pros: Ocean view, safe, modern and comfortable. Service and breakfast was excellent.

Cons: Liked everything.

Pros: Staff was friendly and the place clean

Cons: Upgraded to a sea view room but still didnt have the full view

Pros: The location is situated close to the beach and we had a sea view room, which was pretty.

Cons: It took an hour and 10 minutes to check in, which isn’t expected from 4- star accommodation. After which we still got moved to a different room. Really wasn’t impressed by this. Accommodation should assist staff with a better CRM system.

Pros: Thank you Atlantic Villa. We had a lovely stay in a beautiful room. Breakfast was excellent. I would highly recommend Atlantic to all my friends.

Pros: Good breakfast, friendly staff, nice view from the room and worth it for the value! I recommend it!

Cons: N/A

Pros: The breakfast was good.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Staff of this hotel are readily available to assist customers

Cons: Nothing. All was well with me

Pros: I loved the view from the room. The location perfect. Breskfast was Devine...

Cons: The bed was uncomfortable and the furniture was old.

Cons: Internet dropped out a bit often. TV channels need improvement. Bad picture on some, no volume on others. Poor volume control on TV

Pros: everything has expected

Cons: nothing

Pros: Awesome location and overall best accommodation in Swakop! Restaurant onsite (ground floor) is very good, although somewhat pricey. Rooftop swimming pool is cool! Saw a Pelican scrounging for food right outside my window, where the fishing boats come and clean their catch of the day - SUPER COOL!!!

Cons: I requested a double bed and was given a King size instead, which I was very please about, but turns out this is simply 2 single beds pushed against each other (2 mattresses and bedding the works....) this was the only kink in an otherwise great stay.

Pros: The rooms were huge and nicely decorated.

Cons: The double bed were actually two beds join as one... Not as comfortable as a single queen size bed... No free bottled water... There were lots of flies on the buffet food at the breakfast.

Pros: Staff are generally excellent; Hillary at Anchor Point restaurant was a particular stand-out. The food and decor in the restaurant were also very good. The hotel's obvious great selling point is its location, and the view from the lounge and roof-deck. Well worth paying the premium for a water-view room!

Cons: The room itself was a bit cluttered with cutesy furnishings that were entertaining but not terribly functional. There was no real closet. Who cares, though, when you step out onto the balcony and see those waves crashing into the shore.

Pros: Location and a few really friendly staff members

Cons: Some staff members indifferent/unfriendly....breakfast could be improved-wider variety of cereals and cold meats

Pros: The people are nice, great place to relax, excellent price and the scenery near the sea side is breathtaking. Most recommended to those who are on a tight budget.

Pros: Good welcoming. Friendly staff. Good location and environment. Rooms very neat & sparkling clean

Cons: N/A

Pros: Well located in front of the see, safe location, nice view on the ocean from the bedroom

Cons: Due to the fog ( it was in April) air was cold and humid even inside the building, we rapidly warmed the bedroom with the heating system, but due to poor isolation walls and windows were very cold. No heating system in the bathroom.

Pros: Our room was with sea view, amazing swakopmund

Cons: Weather was very cold and the WiFi was too slow

Pros: Exceptionally friendly reception by my hosts. The Bistro served a formidable pizza and really good wine at a reasonable price. I will certainly use them again.

Cons: A table or desk to work at in the room would have been nice.

Pros: Very comfortable. Nice walks in the area.

Cons: The dinner menu was a bit limited - we would have liked some seafood.

Pros: The place is nicely quite and located in close proximity to the sea.

Cons: You just need to put TV in the rooms.

Pros: Delightfully and helpfully welcomed by Rose at reception, our room was comfortable and overlooked the rear garden. The breakfast was delicious. We also had a pizza in the evening at the associated restaurant in the Secret Garden. Also delicious! There's a most comfortable sitting-room and excellent wi-fi here too. The Guesthouse is most conveniently situated for a walking around the centre of town. Highly recommended.

Pros: Warm and careful welcoming, the owner kindly booked an activity for me and packed a breakfast bag for my very early departure Thank you for this lovely stay !

Cons: Decoration in the room could be improved

Pros: Great value for money, very neat and homely. There was a fantastic restaurant that made tasty pizzas (one of the best bases of pizza I've had). Having their 2 dogs on the premises made our stay memorable

Cons: Rooms 5 and 6 bad poor wifi signal but if it was really needed you just had to walk 5 meters from the room

Cons: the owners non trusting attitude even the jam was closely monitored. p

Pros: Lots of effort is made for the breakfast, appreciated that.

Pros: Location good

Cons: No tv in the room

Pros: Attention to detail and consideration of guests every need

Cons: Slightly away from town but it’s not a negative

Pros: Very personal service, Sam and his staff were always ready to help. Just don’t expect 24h reception and full a la carte menu ... it’s all family run. (a plus for us, but perhaps not for everyone)

Cons: All good.

Pros: Staff and owner very friendly. Feel at home.

Cons: Maybe to do an upgrade for the rooms.

Pros: Sam the owner and his dog Beethoven. Sam is very helpful. The food was delicious! I highly recommend this guesthouse. I will be back. Room is spacious and the shower one of the best

Cons: Nothing

Pros: I am so glad we booked to stay at Sam's Giardino. We had a wonderful two nights there in a clean, well designed and decorated property, with a beautiful garden. Sam, the owner, was very attentive and made our stay very relaxing and very pleasant. He and his staff clearly invest a lot of time and attention in maintaining a lovely property and making their guests' stay as good as possible. The room was spacious and clean, the beds comfortable and cozy. The breakfast was generous and very tasty. The main, very happy surprise, was the dinner. There is a different menu every day which can be made for guests by advance request. The food was excellent. In fact, it was so good, we had dinner there both nights. There was a very good selection of wines too and even a wine grotto where guests can do wine tasting. Overall, we had fantastic stay and I would definitely recommend Sam's Giardino to anyone visiting Swakopmund.

Pros: Every thing in this amazing place was excellent the owner was a host we needed after along trip through the desert, he was every welcoming and warm to talk to we all highly recommend this place, it makes you feel at home.

Cons: We loved the dog mostly, the wine, food and the room everything in this place is amazingly owesome.

Pros: Exceptional hospitality, rooms are situated around a lovely garden. It also had secure parking around the back of property.

Cons: Decor is a little dated and it is a little walk from the city centre.

Pros: The Swiss owner Sam (and his dog Beethoven!) was as knowledgeable and friendly as promised in the Lonely Planet. He gave us great local information and advised us on the best road to take to Etosha - ignoring Google Maps and saving us time and boredom. The breakfast was delicious - fresh Swiss Bircher muesli and cereals, scrambled eggs and bacon, various fresh German style breads, strong coffee. We didn’t have dinner, but we noticed some great wines and whiskeys in the bar. The whole place felt like an old-fashioned Swiss mountain lodge rather than anything African - a bit odd, and maybe not why you come to Namibia, but in some ways quite comforting after a long desert drive. It was also safe and provided secure off-street parking for our 4x4.

Cons: The rooms are clean and comfortable but they felt dated in decor, with many indications of ‘practicality over style’ e.g. plastic soap dispensers. The garden was pretty but due to the weather we didn’t use it. Also we didn’t fall at all in love with Swakopmund - it was grey and cold which was a rough surprise after the gorgeous dry heat of the Namib - but clearly this is not the hotel’s fault and if we returned to Swakopmund we would stay at Sam’s again.

Pros: The Swiss owner is very hospitable and talkative. We loved the conversation with him on the differences of Namibian, German and Swiss culture and economy. The rooms are sufficient in size. There is a safe parking for the car. Excellent Internet connection. Nice garden. Silent nights. Without doubt, we would come back.

Cons: The decor is outdated but who cares. The location is more than one km away from shops and restaurants, so you have to take the car for dinner. For us it was no problem.

Pros: Great family rooms Good breakfast Nice restaurant Walking distance to beach Walking distance to shops Walking distance to many nearby restaurants

Cons: Parking limited - but there is outside parking with guard No bar fridge in the room - but bar was helpful with ice

Pros: Very beautiful room with extremely friendly staff and a delicious Christmas Eve dinner! Would definitely stay here again.

Pros: Property is very clean and staff are amazingly friendly and go out of their way to assist. Rooms are very clean and well maintained.

Pros: Staff Restaurant on site Large room WiFi Location in town walking distance to centre town We loved the place

Cons: All the fittings in the bathroom are loose probably not a big thing but it needs maintainence

Pros: The breakfast was excellent and the staff friendly and yet professional. The rooms were spotless

Cons: Coming from a hot weather, the heater was very small to warm the room. The parking inside is very small.

Pros: Friendly Staff Central

Cons: Poor breakfast

Pros: The staff were very friendly and attentive. The rooms were spacious and very clean. Food was good.

Cons: A pool would have been good

Pros: The service was very swift (room cleaning at morning and laundry for example). Staff very pleasant and helpful beyond the aim of getting the tips!

Cons: It was all just perfect!

Pros: The staff was very friendly

Pros: Th

Cons: The reception staff is very helpful. The food in the restaurant is nice. Room service is good.

Cons: The chinese restaurant could have been better.

Pros: The breakfast was very nice and varied.

Pros: Beautiful and extraordinarily Great beds Tasty breakfast and restaurant

Cons: All was amazing

Pros: The lodges / houses are lovely and clean. The location is great for self drive into Etosha

Cons: The staff was very unfriendly and not accommodating or helpful. When we arrived they were busy painting the reception counter . They should have taken us elsewhere to explain everything but they did not. Cocktails are served between 6-7 and we arrived at 6.50 and cocktails were done. First night at dinner I asked for a coffee and was told they are cleaning the coffee machine so there is no coffee. Be warned that breakfast is served from 7-9am and if you arrive towards 9am there will not be much food left and if you ask they will tell you ibreakfast is finish.

Pros: The location of my room was right in front of the swimming pool. I had access from the front door which made it convenient for me to move in and out. Breakfast very delicious bed felt like a dream.

Cons: Everything was perfect

Pros: We needed to leave really early, so didn't do the hotel breakfast. Instead, they offered a packed take-away breakfast, which was quite adequate.

Cons: In a really water scarce country, they could do away with baths in bathrooms altogether. The shower over bath is ok, but always risky stepping in and out and guests might be tempted to run a full bath which would be a total waste of water.

Pros: Comfort, staff, secure

Cons: Location

Pros: Bear positioned

Cons: Old needs revamp for the price

Pros: Staff was friendly and helpful. Made our stay feel like special.
