"Heinitzburg Hotel review"
Only place we stayed without mosquito netting over bed and we both got bit at night.
Great restaurant and patio." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia; 2n in Botswana
"African Castle"
The European-style fine dining (albeit focused on local Namibian ingredients) feels a little out of place if I'm honest - but it's an interesting experience. Our room was good, with a seating area in one of the little turrets which was quite fun! The staff were friendly and helpful - service probably wasn't quite as smooth as you might expect in the equivalent European hotel, but this was more than made up for by their charm and cheer."

Lunch on the terrace was excellent
Dinner was OK - a little 'trying too hard' maybe" See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia; 3n in Botswana
"Heinitzburg Hotel Review"
Furthermore, the air conditioning unit leaked in the room (and obviously had done or some time as the floor was warped as you walked into the bathroom) - both of these items were reported to the hotel staff. Very disappointing for a Superior Deluxe room!
With that said, the hotel location is superb and we saw one of the most amazing sunsets we have ever seen from the patio. The dinner was excellent and the breakfast was also good." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia
