"Elegant Guesthouse - Windhoek"
1 night Arrived 24 Sep 2010
"Very helpful and friendly staff. Easy access into downtown Windhoek. Secure and peaceful surroundings needed for the aftermath of a long flight in economy.
We ate at a new restaurant (opened in April) which was not on your list that you sent us called "Fusion". Good simple food, inexpensive, and can eat outside under the stars. An easy N$60 cab ride from the Elegant." See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia

"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
