Galton House

Galton House, named after the early explorer Sir Francis Galton, opened in Windhoek’s residential suburb of Eros in December 2011. Only ten minutes drive from the city centre, it’s a modern yet homely eight room guesthouse with a backdrop of rolling hills. There’s a mix of comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces in which to relax and the convenience of an in-house restaurant which caters for all meals.

Our view of Galton House

None of our team has stayed at Galton House thus far, but we were impressed by the simple yet stylish ambience on our brief visit in July 2012. Its location is within easy driving distance of the city centre, shops and restaurants, whilst also offering a secluded feel on the outskirts of suburbia. We’d recommend Galton House as a comfortable and well-run overnight stop in Windhoek pre- or post- your Namibia safari.
