Hilton Garden Inn Windhoek

Hilton Garden Inn Windhoek

8/10 Good
"Overall, a great location to stay in the CBD. I give the food a 2.5/5, but there are plenty of restaurants to choose from in the area. There is a self service washer and dryer, but there is only a single machine so I would suggest the hotel add at least 2 more. Two of the bartenders make great cocktails and the bar is a good location to meet locals, especially during game days."

Arebbusch Travel Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Arebbusch was the perfect place to start our camping adventure in Namibia. I was really glad we chose to stay just outside the centre of Windhoek, it felt relaxed and peaceful, but a taxi into the city was quick, easy and inexpensive. The accommodation and facilities were great, but once again it was the staff who really stood out. Friendly, helpful and welcoming at every turn, they made everything feel easy from the moment we arrived. A brilliant, good-value base in Windhoek and the perfect place to begin and end a Namibian road trip."
