Hoodia Desert Lodge

The staff, location and food were exceptional.

El hotel está muy bien, atención al detalle por parte del personal y muy buena comida en el restaurante del hotel. Además organizan un tour en sossuvlei que recomiendo encarecidamente , experiencia muy buena y el guía muy amable nos explicó todo con detalle.

Mi acompañante estaba indispuesto con problemas gastrointestinales y el hotel no tenía medicamentos ni nada para poder ayudar. Esto fue un inconveniente ya que no hay nada alrededor para poder comprarlo por nuestra cuenta.

Een ongelooflijke mooie aangename lodge. Alles tot in de puntjes verzorgd. Personeel is zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Eigenaar is aanwezig wat zeer persoonlijk aanvoelt. Je bent belangrijk voor hem ! Zeer goede gids gehad. Uitstap naar sossusvlei is fantastisch. Lunch met stoffen tafellakens , geen plastieken glazen . Echt zoals in out of Afrika! De sundowner is ook echt een aanrader!

Het is naar de prijzige kant

Eine super schöne Lodge mit tollen Menschen

The accommodation was advertised on Booking.com with a total living area of 120 m². After careful verification and on-site calculation, the actual areas are as follows: – Sleeping area: 4 × 6 m² = 24 m² – Bathroom with toilet: 7 m² – Covered outdoor shower: 6 m² Total actual living/usable area: approx. 37 m² In addition, there is only a covered outdoor entrance area of approx. 15 m², which is neither indoor space nor living area and cannot be counted as living space under common standards. Even when including this outdoor area, the total size is nowhere near 120 m². The discrepancy is substantial. The price of €2,961 for three nights for two persons is therefore not justified, considering the actual size, location, and overall level of amenities. Furthermore, during our entire stay there was no functioning internet connection except for approximately 45 minutes. The owner attributed this issue to the Namibian state. However, in three other lodges in a comparable location and region, where we stayed previously, there were no internet issues at all, making this explanation unconvincing. We would like to note that the staff was very polite and helpful. Nevertheless, this friendliness represents the standard level of service in comparable lodges and does not compensate for the significant shortcomings described above. Overall, this constitutes a case of material misrepresentation, which was decisive for our booking decision.
