"Relax at Olive Grove"

1 night Arrived 20 Jul 2011
"Nice little place to relax in Klein-Windhoek. It is a bit out of the centre, which was fine for us, as we had experienced Windhoek centre on arrival to Namibia.

They offer spa treatments, which we did not try out as we only had a couple of hours there in the afternoon and wanted an early night before an early transfer to the airport." See all these reviews: 17n in Namibia

"Olive Grove review"

2 nights Arrived 4 Jun 2011
"We were very welcome at Olive Grove (thanks Nantie for your support!). The rooms are different in size, so it's worth checking it before you arrive there. The luxury rooms at the pool area are really smaller than the ones in the second floor.

We had in our first night at Olive Grove the best food we had in our trip to Namibia (we would rate it as excelent), but in the last night dinner was average. And as other places in Namibia, they face some problems with hot running water when there are many people using the shower at the same time, problems which the staff will be glad and quick to solve.

We reccommend the place." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia

"Olive Grove review"

1 night Arrived 27 May 2011
"This was a really good place to stay before setting off on our adventures. The staff were welcoming. It was in a quiet residential area with great views. The rooms were really original.

A little bit of style over substance in that the two washbasins and shower looked great but didn't function entirely successfully.

Lovely breakfast but the dinner tried a bit too hard. That said, we would definitely stay here again - and it was 100% nicer than any hotel." See all these reviews: 6n in Namibia; 3n in Botswana; 2n in Zambia
