We liked our stay here, but not too good value for money for ~160 USD per night. The secured parking inside was great and the breakfast was nice too.

10/10 Exceptional

I absolutely love my stays at The Delight. From the moment I arrive, the staff greet me by name and make me feel genuinely welcomed—it’s not just service, it’s care. There’s a real sense of family here, which is rare to find when traveling. The rooms are consistently clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with reliable air conditioning that makes a big difference after a long day. Every detail feels thoughtfully taken care of. What truly sets this place apart is the staff. They go above and beyond to ensure everything is just right, always with warmth and professionalism. Whether it’s helping with requests or just checking in to make sure you’re comfortable, they make the experience personal. The bar is also a great spot to unwind with a relaxed atmosphere, good drinks, and a perfect way to end the day. If you’re looking for a place where you’re treated like more than just a guest, The Delight is it. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else.

Great parking and location for a quick stop in Swakop. It was a bit chilly here and my room sadly was a tadbit dirty, but I forgive this as the excellent staff rushed to make it ready for me. Everything else was fantastic, and it is a bang on 4* stay.

A nice hotel

The air conditioning/heater was not working satisfactorily - not warm enough for the cold days when we were stayed there. We were asking for a different room unsuccessfully. Otherwise the staff were friendly. The breakfast was superb.

Care and attention to detail. Where else do you get a hot water bottle at bed time. Receptionist was very professional and friendly. Tourist information desk was also exceptionally helpful. Breakfast was delivered by a very enthusiastic team and was a real DELIGHT. This hotel is first rate and a credit to the management team.

Ideales Hotel für ein paar Tage in Swakopmund

Das Hotel liegt sehr zentral, so dass man sich gut zu Fuss in der Stadt bewegen kann. Auch für Ausflüge mit dem Mietauto in der Region liegt das Hotel günstig. Das Zimmer war geräumig und sauber. Die Klimaanlage kann an kühleren Tagen bzw. Abenden auch als Heizung genutzt werden. Zudem liefert das Hotel beim abendlichen Turndown Service eine Bettflasche, was das Zubettgehen behaglich macht. Das Hotel bietet ein reichhaltiges Frühstücksbuffet. Mittag- oder Abendessen werden nicht angeboten. Alles in allem ein gutes Hotel, welches wir sofort wieder wählen würden. Einzig Buchungen über Hotels.com scheinen bei der Gondwana-Gruppe gewisse Probleme zu bieten. Wir hatten auf unserer Reise zweimal solche Hotels nicht direkt, sondern via Hotels.com gebucht, und beide Male mussten wir kurzfristig mit dem Hotel telefonieren, um sicherzustellen, dass unsere Buchung nicht kurzfristig storniert wird. Auf einer Rundreise mit sehr eingeschränktem Wifi-Empfang eine gewisse Herausforderung.

6/10 Good

Very nice rooms and staff was very friendly and helpful. However, we didn’t have any warm water and had to take a cold shower. When we let the hotel know, they just said thank you and they will call maintenance. Not really an apology or something to make up for it.

Nice funky hotel and spacios we us room. Everything was good, except that they only have twin and no double beds - not really comfortable for couples. Breakfast oysters were a disappointment because they didn’t seem very fresh.
