Mercure Hotel Windhoek

Mercure Hotel Windhoek

📍 Corner of Auas, and Aviation Road, Windhoek
★★★ 8.8 (49 reviews)

"Our hotel check-in experience was quite messy. We booked a room at Mercure, but upon arrival, we were directed to the adjacent Mövenpick for check-in. After waiting for half an hour, we were assigned a room, only to find it was a twin room. We went back to request a change, waited another half an hour, and were told there were no king-size beds available. Eventually, we were moved back to the Mercure. Apparently, other colleagues who also booked king-size rooms at Mercure initially received twin rooms as well. The breakfast arrangements were also unclear. For the first couple of days, we were told to go to Mövenpick for breakfast, but then a few days later, we were instructed to go back to Mercure."

"I stayed at Hotel Uhland in Windhoek for four weeks with colleagues during a business trip, and it was an excellent experience overall. The rooms and all the facilities were always very clean and well-maintained, which made for a comfortable stay each day. The staff at the hotel were consistently friendly and went out of their way to help with anything we needed, whether it was local recommendations or assistance with plans for weekends.​ The hotel’s relaxed atmosphere was perfect after long workdays, and it’s clear that guest comfort and satisfaction are a priority here. I truly appreciated how attentive and accommodating the staff were throughout our stay.

"Sylvia and Sebastian in the reception makes a great job. Beautiful hotel with new pool and best best food"

Auas Safari Lodge Hotels in Windhoek

Auas Safari Lodge

"Auas was our first night after arrival and I was not expecting much. How wrong I was. The landscape of the Auas mountains is so beautiful we didnot want to leave. People were so friendly, deluxe rooms really great and food simple but very good. But what was really surprising was the game next morning. In fact it was one of the three best game drives in a three weeks holiday, with big herds of brown gnus, elands, oryxes, lots of ostriches, impala, springbuk, steenbuk, some foxes, chacals, dikdiks, vultures …and beautiful giraffes in front of majestic mountains. Not 5 minutes without an animal in sight. Petrus was a fantastic and nice guide. So, don’t think twice: Auas is the perfect start to your journey. Love this place."

Protea Hotel Windhoek Fürstenhof Hotels in Windhoek

Protea Hotel Windhoek Fürstenhof

"Wish I could give this a good review or even say it was average. Love the Protea Line of Hotels. Unfortunately, the rooms are outdated and worn. They moved us, as I was deeply concerned when the last time the Aircon Units had been cleaned in the first room. They appear to be updating room by room. They really need to invest more in property. The Staff were fine. The younger Staff were outstanding."

"Overall, the service was good, but the presence of rats in the room was quite frightening."

Livega House ★★★★
"We booked the Livega House in Windhoek specifically because of its convenient location near Joe's Beerhouse. The reviews were promising, but unfortunately, our experience was quite different. We received a warm welcome upon arrival and had booked and already paid for an expensive Executive Suite on the rooftop with panoramic views over Windhoek. Instead, we were given a significantly cheaper standard room, which we immediately complained about. Since the reception closed at 5:00 PM and we arrived shortly after, no one could help us. The next morning, we contacted the office manager responsible for bookings and presented her our booking and payment confirmation. We were very rudely informed that their computer system had displayed a standard room instead of the more expensive Executive Suite we had booked and already paid for. We politely requested clarification and a refund of the overpayment but were very rudely dismissed with the explanation that it must have been a booking error. Since we needed to get to the airport in time for our connecting flight to Cape Town, we left a copy of our confirmation with the office manager, requesting clarification. The following weeks passed without any response from management. Livega House seemed to be deliberately ignoring the matter. Apparently, they didn't even deem it necessary to apologize or refund the difference. After months of email correspondence, to which management barely responded, the office manager finally admitted her mistake but tried to delay the refund as long as possible. Due to high bank fees for the transfer from Namibia to Germany, we received only a third of the originally owed amount after several months. It would have been professional for Livega House to have immediately admitted the error and refunded the difference. Because of these frustrating incidents and the poor management, we can only give this supposedly 5-star hotel 3 stars for the good food. Unfortunately, due to our negative and unprofessional experience, we Unprofecannot recommend this hotel and will definitely choose a different hotel on our next visit to Windhoek!"
