This place is almost unreal. Likely a higher percentage of German speaking guests than in any hotel in Germany. The place looks a little like your grandmothers favored place. But everything is clean, works. Service is good. Food is great (if you like the central european kind), prices are reasonable. So if you don't take everything there too serious you... more

Gosh, this places makes you forget you're in Africa... feels more like a granny hotel somewhere in Europe... it's musty, lots of lace and Laura Ashley print. On a positive note, they have free internet in the basement and... umm... hmmm. more

Stayed here twice on a recent trip to Namibia, for one night each time. Slightly surly check-in staff - but apart from that, not a bad stay. First room - two room suite - bathroom was a bit tired - nice balcony and comfortable bed, however. Second room - larger suite ('Diamond'), however it was hastily made 'non-smoking' from what... more

We stayed at the Hansa for two nights during our self-drive honeymoon through Namibia. It is centrally located and is generally a fine place to stay if you don't know the area. They offer free wireless internet access which was nice for sending pictures to family and friends. The room was a nice suite and clean. Our only major complaint... more

It is very German in style, with rich, heavy but tasty cuisine. The hotel was the opposite of a boutique hotel, but it was spotlessly clean, very... more

We recently spent a few nights at this hotel during a trip to Namibia. The hotel is one of the better accommodations in Swakopmund and overall it was comfortable We did have one problem the evening of our first night as there was an ant problem in the room we occupied, but we didn't notice this until later in the... more

Stayed here two years ago for one night en route to the Skeleton Coast. It was perfectly adequate without being anything to get too excited about. It was nice to stay in a proper hotel as opposed to the albeit excellent lodges we enjoyed on our standard two week tour of Namibia. Safe with secure parking (Swakopmund does have the... more

Sicherlich ist Swakopmund schon lange nicht mehr das südlichste deutsche Seebad. Der namibische Badeort strahlt aber immer noch ein ganz... more

Man fühlt sich im Hansa nach 1908 versetzt - durchaus ein positives Erlebnis. Natürlich ist alles etwas "Plüschig" und "neo-barock",... more
