Swakopmund Hotel : Swakopmund : Namibia
Swakopmund Hotel
Location
Built in and around the old Station Building in Swakopmund, the hotel combines architectural beauty with first-world comfort.
Accommodation and facilities
The 44 twin rooms, 30 family rooms, 14 luxury rooms and 2 luxury suites are all decorated in a Victorian-style reminiscent of a bygone era of grace and civility.
Rooms have individual air conditioning, television, tea/coffee making facilities, bathroom with bath, shower and toilet, direct dialling phones, electronic safes, electric razor plugs, fully stocked mini bars, hair dryers, eight channel TV including a German channel and M-net.
Meals can be served in your room at certain times and there is a 24-hour room service snack menu.
Cuisine
Befitting its Victorian theme, dinner at the Platform One is a slightly ostentatious affair. Here you can choose the à la carte menu or a speciality buffet. Platform One also serves breakfast, lunch and light meals through the day.
Alternatively, you can opt for the Station Grill restaurant, next to the Mermaid Casino. A catch of fresh line fish, shellfish and other seafood is served straight from the Namibian waters.
For something totally different, you can join our "Desert Evening". A bountiful banquet is served in the desert, under a mantle of stars.
