Hotel Thuringerhof

We only stayed over because of the long lay over in Windhoek on our way back home. This hotel is a bit far from the airport and the shuttle service was quite expensive.

The room was big and clean. Staff were kind and helpful.

For the amount we paid, this hotel did not meet our expectations. We have traveled to over 30 countries and stayed in various levels of hotels and this one did not provide value for money. The staff were rude (with an exception of 2), they did not have our booking, the location was average, there was a band on one night which was really noisy and the food was terrible. The room service menu had very little choice, too.

The Hotel is next a night club that bangs its music till the early hours so sleep optional. The passage had buckets in it to catch the water that was falling out the ceiling. When the repairs were done the ceiling tiles had been removed or broken so all the pipes exposed. The carpets were dirty needed a wash not only vacuum. No designated smoking area you had to go outside the hotel or the very small parking area. The wifi that is promised is very very bad to stay connected to constantly drops so makes email a nightmare. Key card stopped working the second night had to get it reprogrammed. The staff are very friendly and helpful and do there best in any situation nothing is to much for them they were great. The hotel needs an upgrade.

Very Pleasant Stay. We were there for business and the hotel was very nice.

I recommend anyone staying in windhoek to book this, for the high valued service and cheap price.

I arrived at 9pm. The hotel had received no confirmation of my booking through hotels.com! The hotel internet/wifi was not working which was a huge problem as I needed to download an important business document. My room overlooked a busy street so that I had trouble sleeping!

Only two nights to get my SA tourist visa updated for another 90 days gave me the opportunity to travel to Windhoek. The hotel has a great location, within one block of the bus station on the corner of Bahnhof St. and Independence Ave. Not much else to say.

Three nights, all needs met. Parking is limited and renovation in Restaurant was going on. Excellent breakfast, excellent internet access and speed. Obviously a slow time for the hotel.

My first disappointment with this hotel was that the wifi was down the whole four days I stayed there. Then I discovered that the latch on my window was broken, which meant it blew open and let in street noise. I couldn't get the room safe to work (following the printed directions) and the electric kettle was filled with dusty water. The TV channels all came in with considerable static. Upon leaving, I had to pay a hefty fee for a shuttle to the airport. On the other hand, the breakfast was fantastic, and the location is very handy for a tourist on foot.
