"This hotel felt like more of a motel - again coming from all of the amazing lodges we had just stayed in, it felt underwhelming.

The room was clean and comfortable." See all these reviews: 10n in Namibia

"Hotel Thule"

1 night Arrived 20 Nov 2017
"We arrived late and left early so did not really take advantage of all the hotel facilites. Breakfast was good.

This is a more up-market type of hotel than we have previously experienced in Windhoek - most of the other guests seemed to be on business trips rather than vacation - but it is a very comfortable and well-appointed place to stay in a fantastic location high above Windhoek."

"Great views"

1 night Arrived 24 Sep 2017
"Clean hotel, great views as on a hill.

Only negative was that we arrived on Sunday after a long journey and the restaurant is not open on Sunday evenings. Helpful staff dropped us off at a local Portuguese however, so dinner was solved.

Excellent early breakfast before our trip commenced" See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia

"Great start to the holiday, well located and excellent views over Windhoek both as sun sets and at night. Delicious food and we really enjoyed the deputy manageress who came to talk to us and tell us stories about Namibia and to demonstrate her own language which she spoke using clicks

Very comfy beds which were most welcome after our long journey." See all these reviews: 5n in Namibia

1 night Arrived 14 Aug 2010
"Easy first night in Windhoek, great location, safe, nice view over Windhoek. One of our rooms on the front side downstairs was a little gloomy and noisy at night with cars coming and going.

Staff were very helpful with directions and the view from the restaurant is terrific." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia

"This has nothing to do with the hotel itself but with the neighbourhood : we wanted to take a walk on the Aloe (Hofmeyr) trail which is near the hotel, but we were told that it was unsafe." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia
