"The Elegant Guesthouse review"
We were initially a little taken back by the fairly over security (gate, fences & night-time security guard) - but the rooms themselves were clean and cool and reminded us of India arranged on three sides around a sunken rock feature." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia

"The Elegant Guesthouse review"
Youthful staff is friendly and helpful – including the night watchman who retrieved our car key from the door of the car where we stupidly left it.
This location is convenient and easy to find when arriving via Windhoek Airport." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia
"Great place to relax & explore Windhoek"
We enjoyed the walk into Windhoek - up over the hill through residential roads. The residential area surrounding the guesthouse is also very pleasant - another nice walk past jacaranda trees dripping with purple flowers. But the best thing is the friendliness of the staff - always a smile and cheerful greeting and happy to help." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia
