A nice hotel
The air conditioning/heater was not working satisfactorily - not warm enough for the cold days when we were stayed there. We were asking for a different room unsuccessfully. Otherwise the staff were friendly. The breakfast was superb.

Care and attention to detail. Where else do you get a hot water bottle at bed time. Receptionist was very professional and friendly. Tourist information desk was also exceptionally helpful. Breakfast was delivered by a very enthusiastic team and was a real DELIGHT. This hotel is first rate and a credit to the management team.

Very nice rooms and staff was very friendly and helpful. However, we didn’t have any warm water and had to take a cold shower. When we let the hotel know, they just said thank you and they will call maintenance. Not really an apology or something to make up for it.

Nice funky hotel and spacios we us room. Everything was good, except that they only have twin and no double beds - not really comfortable for couples. Breakfast oysters were a disappointment because they didn’t seem very fresh.

Modern, spacious and super clean room with a nice balcony. We were in a room under the roof (room 55) and there were quite loud dilataton noises in the morning and evening when the structure was expanding/contracting with temperature variations. The staff is super nice and handy. The breakfast was one of the best ones I had in Namibia. Location is great with all attractions and restaurants in walking distance.

Oysters and Champagne for breakfast!
Loved this hotel. We were traveling through Swakopmund with plans to stay 2 nights on our way to Sossusvlei. This was one of our best hotels in Namibia. The location is very convenient to everything. The rooms are charming, clean, spacious, comfortable, etc. And the biggest surprise is the incredible breakfast included each day champagne and oysters included!! We would absolutely go back and would recommend this hotel very highly. I look forward to trying their other hotels. You will not be disappointed.

Great stay in Swakop
Great place for a stay in Swakop. We had a family room which worked great (extra bedroom in a loft upstairs). Breakfast was incredible! Only complaints were the low water pressure and occasional slight creaking noise in the ceiling.

Trendy and vibrant boutique hotel. Very close to downtown and shops (5 min walk). Wonderful breakfast and staff. Bed was a little firm for my liking but other than that it was great.
