"Olive Grove review"
Olive Grove seems a bit pretentious. The rooms were dark b/c of the darkened color of the walls and with concrete floor, walls and ceiling, the room was an echo chamber. The toilet area had no privacy.
Staff were not particularly engaged but were helpful when needed." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia
"Olive Grove review"
At time the restaurant seemed overwhelmed. For example on the morning of our departure we went to breakfast early, only to depart the hotel an hour later than intended because it took so long to get our breakfast. This was a little frustrating, and the hotel might consider adding additional staff and additional staff during busy meal times.
Otherwise we enjoyed our stay and found the rooms were well appointed." See all these reviews: 20n in Namibia
"Great last night (&day) in Namibia"
Dinner was excellent and the chief of staff was kind enough to organize a birthday cake overnight for our eldest. Olive Grove established the connection for a 3 hours city tour of Windhoek, including main landmarks of the city, Katutura, a local market at Katutura (impressive) and a visit at the Penduka women's development project crafts center. We paid N$2800 for the four of us.
Our guide & driver Gary did just an OK job, really just driving us around & taking care of us. These tours of Katutura & the city are probably good business; the more knowledgeable the guide, the better your tour will get." See all these reviews: 21n in Namibia

"Olive Grove review"
If we were to stay more than one night, we think we would have looked for somewhere that was closer to restaurants and the centre of Windhoek. However, it was ideal for the one night we stayed here.
We also appreciated that it was only around 45 minutes from the airport." See all these reviews: 25n in Namibia; 5n in South Africa
