Hotels near Desert Gems, Swakopmund

We spent 2 nights in Swakopmund & chose to stay at the this hotel because we felt it offered a good balance of price, location & quality. All in all we were very pleased with our stay and felt the hotel met all of these expectations. The rooms are clean, modern, light & airy and the bed one of the most comfortable we slept in during our trip. The bathroom is open to the rest of the room which didn't bother us being a married couple, but for people sharing a room as friends, it is just something to bear in mind. Swakopmund was surprisingly chilly during August being winter especially at night (it reminds us of a British summer lol!), so we were pleased to find that the AC can be used to heat the room as well, which came in handy in the evenings & early mornings. In terms of location, the hotel is great as there is parking outside with security to keep an eye on your car, the lighthouse & museum across the road and you are just a couple of mins walk in the other direction to the shops, cafes and restaurants. There is a great bar next door, one side of the hotel and a lovely Italian restaurant / pizzeria on the other side, so it was a good spot for dining too! The included breakfast was also great with a selection of toasts, fruits, cakes, juices etc as well as the option for cooked eggs, full English etc. The staff were all lovely & very helpful and we would gladly stay again & recommend the place to others!

I had a good stay at the Delight. The rooms are large, with a comfortable bed, a nice well appointed bathroom, with a terrace for sitting outside. There are creature comforts, like daily cookies , espresso machine and nice amenities in the room. I was pleasantly surprised by the hot water bottle placed in my bed for turndown, which gives you an indication on the level of service at this hotel - the staff are very friendly. The breakfast is simply exceptional- high quality cold meats and cheeses, oysters, a great egg station, high quality sausage/bacon, baked goods, excellent coffee. The location perhaps is not the best, a bit away from the rest of the town and the coast- but, Swakopmund is a small town and everything is 10 minutes away by foot. A really nice stay.

Our tour group spent two nights here and it was wonderful. A very spacious room - well we had a double room actually. Plenty of room in the mini bar fridge for our own drinks, lots of kitchen facilities and laundry service available for a few extra $. We had heaps of cupboards, a table on the balcony and the rooms even had specific towels to clean our dusty shoes. Plus the rooms were cleaned daily! Wifi was great in the rooms too. Amoria was a very welcoming and informative host. Nothing was too much for her!! We enjoyed the breakfast spread both mornings - especially the personailsied hot meals. Friendly pets to pat too.

Beautiful railway station converted into a hotel with good function space for events. Includes a gymnasium and cinema! Just 30 minutes from Walvis Bay International Airport. Small swimming pool. One main restaurant. Walking distance from Swapopmund city centre.

My friend and I stayed at this guest house for three nights as we explored Swakopmund and the surrounding area. The room was clean and just big enough for the two of us. The buffet breakfast was simply and tasty and the staff went above and beyond including opening breakfast early a couple mornings so we could get to our booked activities in time. Laundry service was affordable and quick. Great location within walking distance to the ocean, restaurants, and shops. Would highly recommend!

Great location, double bed (rare in Namibian accommodation), nice and simple, secure parking. We stayed here, explored Swakopmund. It has great restaurants, friendly people who are all willing to help when needed. Near Walvis Bay: if you are a surfer try Dolphin Beach. I tried Donkey Bay, but was way beyond my skill level.
