We stayed in the Luxury room sea facing, it was very comfortable and well appointed, only criticism was sea view was mainly of the car park.
Location is perfect next to the ocean, very easy to get to, with very easy parking and walking distance to shopping and restaurants." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia

We found a nearby kayaking with seals activity which was one of the highlights of our trip... Nothing to do with the hotel though haha!" See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia

The oysters in the Ocean Cellar restaurant was delicious!
They have a vehicle available for guests for drop off/pick ups around Swakopmund - free of charge, just have to tip the driver - and we used it quite a bit, especially as we wanted to visit a micro brewery as well as a small gin distillery slightly out of town (Namib dunes brewery https://namibdunes.business.site/ and Stillhouse Gin http://www.stillhouseatlantic.com/ )" See all these reviews: 11n in Namibia

It was nice to have a couple of days relaxing in "Civilization" after early mornings & long days at the Desert Lodge.
Good restaurants, easy to walk into the town.
Although not directly related to the Strand Hotel, we did some fantastic trips in Swakop : Kayaking with Seals & Sandwich Harbour tour, both highly recommended" See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia

The breakfast was the biggest we came across variety-wise and good quality.
The hotel are happy to arrange trips for you and we went for a half-day dune driving which included checking out the flamingos at Walvis Bay. It was good fun with plenty of stops for the views." See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia

There was some work going on which meant that the other couple we were staying with had to exit the hotel and walk round the back to get to reception but no more than a small inconveniece.
Breakfast was unbelievable - everything from Oysters to cakes to cereals to cold platter to full cooked breakfast, as good as anywhere we've been." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia
