Me and the wife stayed here for 1 night after completing a 10 day camping explorer trip with Wild Dog & Kudu safaris (Our guide was Tongai who has just started up his own safari company - www.tongai-safaris.com, and we highly recommend him). This place was just what we wanted after over a week camping. The room was perfect with... more

We ended up in Windhoek unexpectedly, when my partner had to be airlifted from near Sossusvlei with broken ribs. Luckily, I got a last minute booking here. The place was perfect for us. I personally loved the concrete decor. It was clean, the concrete bath was huge, the layout perfect. Lovely sheets and down bedding. My partner was not so... more

After reading the previous reviews on Tripadvisor we decided for this small hotel. This was the perfect place to unwind after a long journey. The hotel makes a difference with it's modern and relaxed elegant style and tasteful interior design, consisting all of built-in furniture and facilities. The owner and staff have been very nice and helpful, the hotel is... more

Before arriving in Namibia, we visited Capetown, Sa. We took the Robben Island tour, and I have to say, other than the bedding, and the flush toilets, the room at the Olive Grove reminded me of Nelson Mandella's cell. The concrete floor made the room look like they had just ripped out the carpeting, tile , or whatever. The room... more

This is a great place to use a base when doing the loops around Namibia. The owners bend over backwards to help, they're friendly and efficient - and the staff are great. The breakfasts are truly memorable!! more

We stayed at Olive Grove for a couple of nights at the beginning and end of our Namibia trip. To be honest, we were also completely surprised by the beautiful design and layout of the guest house. It is a perfect haven of cleanliness, peace and tranquillity after the dust and heat of the rest of Namibia. The lounge area... more

The Olive Grove is a great choice for an upmarket relaxing stay in Windhoek before/after a Namibia tour. Windhoek has little to keep the tourist entertained but you can easily relax here for the day in the airy courtyard / pool area. The rooms are finished in a polished concrete style which makes them lovely and cool in Summer but... more

We spent one night at the Olive Grove at the start of our trip and it was excellent. The rooms are beautifully decorated, although if you don't like natural stone decor its probably not the place for you to stay. It also has a small plunge pool, jacuzzi and sun terrace. Breakfast and lunch were very good, and dinner looked... more

We stayed here at the beginning and end of our trip and i have to say it was one of the most comfortable places i have ever stayed in. The rooms were large and spacious, the beds and linen top class and the jacuzzi and huge bath were most welcome after 2 weeks on the road. The patio area outside... more

I stayed at Olive Grove for 1 night in July. I was given what they called a luxury room. It was tiny! I think the bathroom was bigger than the actual room. I found the concrete floor made the room very very cold. I froze all night. The concrete bath looks quite nice but I don't think it can be... more
