The Minen Hotel is a small country hotel in a small country town. The reception and service from the staff was outstanding. Nothing was too much trouble. The evening meal under the stars for 38 people was handled beatifully and the management of some of the large hotels we stayed at on our Southern African trip could learn a lot... More

The Minen Hotel has plenty of character having once been owned by the copper mining company that once dominated the town. Although the mining activities have wound down over the years, the hotel remains a drawcard having kept its old world charm while developing its accommodation options at attractive prices. The food is wholesome and tasty and served al fresco... More

Whilst we only spent one night at the Minen (en route from Windhoek to Etosha), the hotel certainly has an old world charm about it and I would be hard pressed to find anything serious to complain about. Not necessarily the place for a long stay however. The meals are suitably "Germanic" and the mixed grill was huge, however the... More

I like the simplicity and the location of the hotel itself. Recommended for those who like green and vegetation; the hotel's yard has enough. I'm a young guy who doesn't really care about comfort. All I like is being outdoors and overnighting in a cool place. This is a cool place, and the pricing is reasonable. I do recommend :)

Minen Hotel is by a beautiful central park of old mining city, Tsumeb. Hotel and Tsumeb feel like a step into past, bit abandoned. Hotel rooms are strangely old fashioned, 70s/80s decoration - but comfortable (good beds, tv). Exterior has old colonial feel with large garden. Good parking in front of the building. Service seems good, waiters have still old... More
