Windhoek Hotels

Namibia’s relaxed capital with a character of its own

Stay in a Windhoek luxury hotel for a night or two, a great place to start or end your Namibia safari

Set in a broad valley surrounded by low hills, Windhoek is Namibia’s small but vibrant capital - a city where African, German and modern influences come together in a surprisingly laid-back way. While it’s often seen as just a start or end point for a safari, Windhoek is worth a short stay to get a feel for the country’s cultural contrasts and emerging urban energy.

The city is easy to navigate and pleasantly green, with wide streets, colonial architecture, and a handful of sights, including the Christuskirche, the Independence Memorial Museum, and the Post Street Mall with its open-air craft market. It’s also home to some of Namibia’s best restaurants, coffee shops and locally owned boutiques, making it an ideal place to relax and reorient either side of a trip.

Accommodation ranges from well-run guesthouses to boutique hotels such as The Olive Exclusive or The Weinberg, both of which offer comfort, good food and quiet surroundings. Though not a destination in itself, Windhoek is a welcoming, well-connected hub that gives a gentle introduction - or a soft landing - to your Namibian adventure.

Far and Wild went above and beyond to make sure my trip to Zambia was special. I would definitely recommend them and their services to anyone wanting to travel to Africa.

Lovely holiday at the amazing Almanara on Galu beach, a beach like no other. Far and Wild excelled themselves from beginning to end of our holiday in beautiful Kenya.... What a country!,

Wow! These guys are amazing. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Friendly AND efficient! Sorted out our trip (last minute and lots of different family member needs, sorry!) in record time and everything worked like clockwork. Trip of a lifetime to the Masai Mara. Will be back (and use F&W again!)!

It was a dreamy holiday on the Kenyan Coast - Far and Wild, their efficiency and professionalism allowed us to relax and be the happiest family alive !! We cannot fault them, their care and understanding of what we wanted from a holiday ensured we had the most memorable trip. We will be booking with them again for sure!
