"Olive Grove review"
We had both dinner and breakfast there (both meals pleasant) and paid for a packed lunch on departure.
There was building work going on during our stay - whilst there was evidence of this it didn't impact our time.
We had already had a few days in SA prior to flying to Windhoek. On reflection we would have been happy to get straight on the road rather than overnighting in Windhoek as we didn't need time to recover from a long journey. That said, we're happy to have dipped our toes into Namibia's capital but wouldn't recommend an overnight stay unless rest time is needed." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia

"Olive Grove review"
The Olive Grove was okay. The food was good, they had a lot of vegetarian options on the menu but only a couple were available.
The hotel was functional, and easy to get to the airport the next morning." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia; 1n in South Africa

The steps leading up to the rooms could prove a problem for anyone with mobility problems but there are ground floor rooms.
The staff here are just lovely and very helpful. The meal was probably one of the best we had during the entire holiday - just superb.
I would definitely recommend this place." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia
