"Olive Grove"
As we were a bit later arriving we ate dinner 'in house ' and it was fantastic. Buffet breakfast was also of a high standard.
The rooms were ver very comfortable and a little side note -- Prince Harry stayed there a couple of years ago !
There was ample parking for the vehicle .
I would most certainly stay again ." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia

"Good central Windhoek base"
The Olive Grove is also close to some decent restaurants too, either a quick drive or taxi away (we were advised not to walk after dark despite the area being really nice and seemingly trouble free)." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia
"Great one-night stop"
Had a lovely meal at Joes Beerhouse which was near - tried all different kind of game and crocodile! They were happy to book a taxi for us. The best breakfast we had in the whole holiday was at Olive Grove.
Didn't appear to be much parking but wasn't a problem for us as we seemed to be the only car there. The pool also didn't seem too appealing." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia
