This converted train station is now a nice hotel. Well located, with friendly staff and a nice swimming pool. The restaurant has an excellent buffet (I usually don't even rate buffets as I don't like the concept).

The Swakopmund Hotel is, unusually, a converted station building but the original was of quite a grand German colonial design and seems to have converted quite well. We found the accommodation roomy and comfortable, and the staff friendly, helpful and efficient. It was unfortunately quite cool during our three night stay so that the swimming pool was not an attractive... More

We had a supper at the restaurant of that hotel. At first we were only 5 in that immense room; eventually 12 more people arrived. The buffet could have served hundreds of people . The buffet was full of goodies. We had a nice supper, service at the table (for wine) was perfect. The hotel is part of the old... More

Stayed for 2 nights with our 3 kids. Hotel staff were friendly and willing to help. Rooms are clean. Wifi works well and is free. Grounds in well kept condition. Breakfast buffet selection was good, including fresh fruit, yoghurt, eggs made to order, cereals, cold cuts, cheeses, breads and pastries and even steak and chicken if that's what you fancy.... More

I returned to the Swakopmund Hotel and Entertainment Center with my family for 3 nights over New Years Eve. Our stay was as excellent as ever. Seriously. I travel a lot around Namibia and probably average 40 different hotel / lodge stays a year and the Swakopmund Hotel is always a favorite. First - best breakfast buffet in Namibia! Hands... More

My wife and I stayed here recently. On arrival nobody took our cases, nobody welcomed us and the whole atmosphere seemed very 'businesslike' and very very impersonal. We came on our Honeymoon and were bitterly disappointed with the level of service. The rooms are clean and spacious.

Beautiful old building and really comfortable accomodaton situated in Swakopmund. close to the town so easy walking to all the local shops. The town itself was clean and free of any layabouts. Lots of good photo opportunites with the surronding architecture. The staff were warm and friendly, breakfast was excellent, lunch mediocre.

Swakopmund Hotel is far the best hotel to stay in Swakopmund. Beautiful building, old railway station, colonial style. Elegant, stylish, good service, excellent food and very well located. Pool and gardens extremely clean and well done. One night only is too short, I advise 2 nights stay.
