“Good value”

Hotel conveniently located pretty much at the end of the B2 from Walvis Bay. 10 min walk to the pier. Friendly staff and good breakfast. Nice old building that used to be a train station.

Hotel conveniently located pretty much at the end of the B2 from Walvis Bay. 10 min walk to the pier. Friendly staff and good breakfast. Nice old building that used to be a train station. Rooms were fine but the soundproofing wasn't the best so quite noisy in the evenings and mornings. Great wifi and a load of sports channels on the TV. Ate at the Tug near the pier and Inspired Pizza just around the corner from the hotel on Hendrik Street - both worth a visit. Good value for what we paid overall. Drove from Sossusvlei - C27-C19-C14-B2. Google said 5 hours, took 30 mins more largely due to parts of the C19 and C14 being very corrugated. Driving c80kph on the corrugated parts helps with the quality of the ride but you then need to be careful as the car isn't as stable especially around slight bends!

“A little dated”

The hotel was fine for a couple of nights. The rooms were lovely and modern (although we were given a view of a wall which was a shame!) . The pool is freezing so not useable in the winter months. The interior of the hotel (lobby and hallways) are a little run down and could do with updating. The l… more

The hotel was fine for a couple of nights. The rooms were lovely and modern (although we were given a view of a wall which was a shame!) . The pool is freezing so not useable in the winter months. The interior of the hotel (lobby and hallways) are a little run down and could do with updating. The lounge/bar is relaxing with the fire and TV. Breakfast had a large variety of options but the heaters to keep food warm (like beans, hashbrowns etc) were luke warm at best so the food was generally pretty cold. The hotel is set about a 15 mins walk from the water front where the restaurants are so you will need to use a taxi after dark.
