"The Elegant Guesthouse review"

1 night Arrived 5 Sep 2010
"A small modern place. Very clean and a great first night's stop in Namibia. Secured parking area with electronic controlled access made one feel comfortable, although raised questions about why one should need such arrangements! We tried the pool which was clean but found it too cold.

Staff helpful and attentive." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia; 2n in Zambia

"The Elegant Guesthouse review"

1 night Arrived 5 Aug 2010
"This guesthouse was the first place we stayed.

We were initially a little taken back by the fairly over security (gate, fences & night-time security guard) - but the rooms themselves were clean and cool and reminded us of India arranged on three sides around a sunken rock feature." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia
