Snel Overzicht: A beautiful boutique hotel that feels like a wealthy friend's estate, provided you don't mind paying extra to use a swimming pool.

Beoordeeld door @richstaysI was blown away by The Loft at The Weinberg. The spiral staircase and hidden TV gave it such a cool, modern vibe, and having a separate living area made it feel huge. The staff were amazing too—super attentive and helpful.


Gast die hier verbleef zei

The hype

Travelers love the 'old world charm' and convenient on-site dining, but many are baffled by the lack of a dedicated hotel pool.

Reality check

The 'Courtyard Fountain' rooms look pretty but sound noisy; if you open the windows, you hear the water feature and restaurant chatter all night.

  • You appreciate a good steak and wine without leaving the property
  • You need a reliable, upscale base for business or safari prep
  • You love a good spa day (Soulstice is excellent)

Schoonmaak & Onderhoud

8.5
  • Housekeeping: Generally thorough daily service, though occasional lapses like 'missed spots' or 'dusty patios' reported.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Bathrooms are modern and typically spotless; rainfall showers are a highlight.
  • Maintenance: Mostly excellent, but some reports of 'rickety chairs' on patios or minor wear and tear.
  • Linens & towels: High quality, though one recent review noted a 'hole in the sheet'—an outlier but worth noting.
  • Odors & scents: Common complaints about strong 'chemical' cleaning smells masking the room air.

  • Water fountain in the central courtyard (runs late)
  • Diners and staff at the on-site restaurants

Voordat je boekt

Goed om te weten

  • The hotel is part of the 'Am Weinberg Estate,' a secure mixed-use development
  • Valet parking is free and secure (gated)
  • Airport transfers are available but cost ~NAD 500 ($28 USD) per person

Wat je mee moet nemen

  • Universal travel adapter (Type M is common in Namibia)
  • Smart-casual dinner outfits (the on-site restaurants are dressy)

Kamer Genie

Beste keuzes

  • Loft Apartments (split-level, kitchenette, very spacious)
  • Superior Upper-Level Rooms (balconies, better views, less noise than ground floor)

Kamers om te vermijden

  • Courtyard Fountain Rooms (Ground Floor) - privacy issues and noise from the public areas

Kamer Aanvraag Genie – kopiëren en plakken

I would appreciate a quiet room on the Upper Level, away from the courtyard restaurant and fountain noise. If available, a mountain-facing view would be preferred over the internal courtyard.

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips

Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.

Is there a pool?

Technically no. You have access to the Soulstice Day Spa pool, but it usually requires booking a treatment or paying a fee.

Is breakfast included?

Usually yes, and it's a high-quality buffet with a la carte options, though some guests find the juice selection lacking.

Can I walk to nearby shops?

Not recommended. While safe within the estate, walking around Klein Windhoek at night is discouraged. Use a taxi or shuttle.

Is it good for families?

It's okay, but not great. The 'Loft' rooms are spacious for families, but the lack of a kid-friendly pool is a major drawback.

How far is the airport?

About a 30-40 minute drive (40km) from Hosea Kutako International Airport.

Is there a gym?

Yes, there is a small but functional fitness center on-site.
