Guest Reviews
- GUILLAUME (10/5): -
- Greco (10/5): - Atmosfera serena e rilassata. Cibo ottimo, struttura curatissima. Dormire respirando aria fresca e avere il comfort dello scaldaletto è stato meraviglioso. Nulla
- Adrianna (10/5): - The facilities are unique and very clean.
The food in the restaurant is also amazing.
In the room they also have mattress heaters which was an amazing touch.
- Hilde (10/5): -
- Martin (10/5): -
- Kunigunde (8/5): Okay - Gut Relativ laut
- Cagdas (10/5): -
- Diego (10/5): Incourtounable si vous passez a Windhoek - Super campsite, propre, familial avec un beau restau et bar. Les serveuses sont super sympa. Distributeur de billets sur place.
Tente spacieuse avec matelas chauffant.
- delia (7/5): Agradável, mas podem melhorar - Funcionários muito simpáticos. Boa limpeza das casas de banho. Jardim bem cuidado. As "luxury tents" estão muito próximas umas das outras. O depósito das garrafas de vidro do restaurante deveria ficar afastado das tendas, o barulho dos vidros é muito intenso e desagradável depois das 10 horas da noite. Falta de ponto de iluminação exterior da tenda.
- Michel (10/5): - wat een top lokatie om je vakantie tebeginnen enof te eindigen niks
- Christian (9/5): - La cuisine est délicieuse
- Kunigunde (9/5): Einfach toll - Super nett angerichtet. Bäder/Duschen sehr toll. Personal sehr freundlich 👍 (hatten für unsere Rundreise 2 Weingläser und ein Bierglas ausgeliehen um nicht aus Kunststoff oder Metallbecher trinken zu müssen. Wie durch ein Wunder konnten wir die Gläser am Ende wieder zurückgeben 😅)
- Altan (9/5): Séjour parfait pour se mettre dans l’ambiance du voyage en4x4 - On est vite mis dans l’ambiance du camping et du séjour en 4x4
Tente individuel avec douche commune Rien
- Andreas (10/5): -
- Myriam (9/5): Excellent place to stay - Excelent location near the centre of town. Nice setting with private spaces for the tents. Lovely outdoor showers
- Nadja (9/5): - Very nice stay at Urban Camp! The glamping tents are absolutely amazing — super cozy and thoughtfully equipped. One of the best features was definitely the heated mattress for the cold nights, which made the stay extra comfortable during winter.
The shared bathroom and toilet areas were always very clean and well maintained, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. What we really loved was the atmosphere of the place: even though it is located in the middle of the city, it feels like a peaceful green oasis where you can truly relax.
We also think Urban Camp is a perfect place to stay before starting a self-drive trip through Namibia or after finishing one.
There are only a few small things we would recommend improving for the glamping area. It would be great to have at least a small sink near the tent area to brush your teeth, and ideally maybe even a toilet closer to or behind the tent area. During summer this is probably not a big issue, but during the cold winter nights it can be quite uncomfortable having to walk outside to the shared facilities.
Another thing we would suggest is improving communication during check-in regarding the restaurant and breakfast options. On Sundays there was only a very limited dinner menu available (mainly a few wrap options without many side dishes), but this was not mentioned beforehand. If we had known, we probably would have gone into town for dinner instead. The same happened during breakfast on our last morning, where only limited options were available because of a new chef. It would have been nice to know this in advance as well.
Overall though, we really enjoyed our stay. Cozy glamping tents, a relaxing atmosphere, great staff, and a perfect base in Windhoek — we would definitely recommend Urban Camp!

- Trevor John Rennison (6/5): Okay if you're a camper - Convenient location for an overnight stop when traveling No toilet in the glamping tent. We had to go outside at night to the ablutions to pee
- zornitta (10/5): - The communal outside bathrooms are amazing an absolute highlight. The only negative would be noise pollution from the road.
- Jacques (10/5): FANTASTIES - ALLES WAS FANTASTIES. DIE MENSE DIE PLEK DIE ATMOSFEER DIE VERBLYF EN DIS BITTER MOOI ONS HET VAN ALLES GEHOU

- Barbara (10/5): - Das Camp ist eine wunderschöne Anlage. Alles sehr gepflegt und geschmackvoll. Essen war klasse. Das in der Beschreibung nicht deutlich darauf hingewiesen wird, dass die Toiletten und Duschen von allen Gästen gemeinsam benutzt werden und im Freien sind. Bei 7° fanden wir das nicht so witzig.
- Frederic (10/5): Tout était parfait - Tout Rien
- Laura (10/5): Great vibes! - Very vibey accommodation with very cool and comfortable tents.
- SYLVIE (9/5): Cette fois et après notre 4eme séjour, nous avons constaté que certains campeurs s’approprient les toilettes. Valises in - Tout

- Sebastienne (10/5): - Sehr schöne Unterkunft in Windhoek

Personeel heel vriendelijk Niets
- Chantal m (10/5): Très bien pour arrivée ou départ de windoeck - Bonne localisation pour aller dans le centre ville à pied.
Tentes confortables et propres
Un resto dans un cadre agréable
Personnel agréable
- Babar (8/5): - I enjoy glamping more than hotels, so despite being in a city, an option to camp was more enjoyable for me than staying at a hotel. A shared toilet, despite being clean and an outdoor shower which was nice, wasn't convenient for use in the middle of the night.
- Martin (9/5): -
- chutimon (9/5): -
- Michael (9/5): Super erster Stop in Windhoek - Wir haben das Zelt gebucht. Schön und gemütlich eingerichtet. Für die erste Nacht in Windhoek eine super Anlaufstelle.
Um die Ecke kann man bei Joe‘s Beerhouse lecker essen und den Abend ausklingen lassen. Personal etwas verwirrt und wusste selbst nicht wo genau unser Zelt war. Leider keine Möglichkeit einen Fön auszuleihen.
- Nejma (9/5): - Tout La température dans la tente
- Hélène (10/5): - Rien à dire tout était parfait ! Tentes hyper belles et confort, literie 20/20 !
Personnel hyper acccueillant.
Toilettes et douches propres, plusieurs à dispo sur le site.
Cadre magnifique pour débuter les vacances dans un magnifique jardin.
Repas très bon le soir également J’ai tout aimé !
- Lucyna (9/5): - Urban Camp in great location close to Namibia2Go car hire.Busy camp but very nice with plants and swimming pool.Great food. Bit busy from early morning, but that is the nature of the place.People coming and going.Great start and finish in Windhoek.
- Lucyna (10/5): - Great place for glamping to start or finish your Namibian adventure.Close to Namibia2Go car hire.Good Food. Nothing.
- Michelle (9/5): - Sehr schönes Camp, Better richtig bequem. Gemeinsames Badezimmer- richtig schöne Aussenduschen. Lage etwas ausserhalb, 20min in die Innenstadt
- SYLVIE (10/5): Parfait - Tout Le bruit de la route la nuit mais les bouchons d’oreilles sont proposés.
- Torsten (9/5): wunderbare Campsite - problemloser Check-In, gut gestaltete Dusch und Toiletten Anlagen —-
- de Wet (10/5): Very pleasant indeed - Everything Nothing
- Janneau (10/5): Aanrader! - Avontuurlijke start van onze reis in Namibië! De buitendouche was heerlijk na de lange vlucht. Oordoppen worden verstrekt, handig als je een lichte slaper bent!
- Kirsten (4/5): - It is a beautiful clean lodge , with comfortable rooms and seemed to be quite central My arrival experience was not great... As there was no communication that a requested airport transfer could not be settled with the room bill using a card. Though there is an ATM, there was no cash in it , and the transfer driver had to take me to a shopping centre to draw cash to settle the transfer at 8.30 PM at night. The urban camp staff member who was assisting me with check in , was going to have me leave my luggage in the reception while I went to get cash and once I pushed to be able to put my stuff in my room walked ahead of me and couldn't even be asked to assist with my bag to the room, which i found very disappointing considering all I was juggling.....
- Tracy (6/5): - very nice camp - good ambience impossible to sleep - so much road noise
- Sven (10/5): Basic aber trotzdem top… alles da und sehr sauber und sehr freundliches Personal - Alles top
- Sven (10/5): Super Start und Ende unseres Urlaubs. Alles easy und entspannt - Alles war top

- Gijs van Stralen (9/5): -
- Lars (10/5): -
- Neil (10/5): Seamless stay - Quiet tented camp in the city. Great facilities and really helpful staff. Fun bar and restaurant for our last night in Namibia. Fixed price taxi to the airport at 04h45 no problem and he arrived slightly early.
- Lars (10/5): -
- Roger (9/5): -
- christophe (8/5): - bon rapport qualité prix du glamping (glamour camping) : un lit dans une chambre (définie par une tente) pour 10 fois moins cher qu'un lodge avec un emplacement pratique, près du centre vill eet à distance de marche du restaurant Joe, bon petit déjeuner, piscine, etc... le seul inconvénient qui limite l'enthousiasme, c'est que la qualité de la nuit dans un camping dépend de la discrétion des voisins. Les notres ne l'étaient pas tellement :-(
- Melanie (8/5): Urban C(G)lamping at its best. - Wir haben unsere letzte Nacht in Namibia hier verbracht. Toll eingerichtetes Zelt und gepflegter schöner Aussenbereich. Alles war super sauber, das Personal freundlich. Die Glamingzelte stehen paarweise sehr dicht zusammen, das heißt man wohnt ein bisschen nah mit seinen Nachbarn.
- Victoria (10/5): A real treat - Relaxing, safe, clean and fun I couldn't stay longer!
- Michaela (10/5): -
- Jean (9/5): -
- Fernanda (9/5): - Nice oasis with security and some very comfortable tent rooms. Very convenient bar inside and creative design too! Nothing major, I wish we had a thicker blanket than the bed sheet. ( To be honest, during the day it was sooooo hot that I didn't think I would need it, but it cooled down a bit in the evening)
- Daryl (10/5): - Camping feeling. Good food
- Angelika (10/5): Aussergewöhnlich - Einfach alles Ein grünes Paradies in Mitten von Windhoek
- claire (10/5): -
- Piet (8/5): -

- Williams (10/5): -
- Anne (10/5): - Le calme et la verdure en ville.
Très bon repas et petits déjeuners. Rien
- Benoit (9/5): -
- Dick (8/5): Okay - Het personeel Gebrek aan privacy, allemaal bordjes met waarschuwingen, mensen die luid pratend midden in de nacht langs tent liepen, blaffende honden.
- Tove (8/5): Kan anbefales! - Komfortabelt, rent og pent. Velstelt fin hage og innbydende fellesområder. Svært serviceinnstilt og imøtekommende personale. Deilig mat, frokosten var himmelsk! Det perfekte stedet for å starte en Namibiaferie og slappe av etter en lang flytur.
- Nicole (10/5): Hele fijne plek in goede sferen - Super vriendelijk personeel. Prachtige plek en faciliteiten tot in detail verzorgt. Licht in de tent was wat donker maar dat valt in het niet bij algemene impressie
- Olivier (9/5): - Emplacement , personnel très gentil, on y mange très bien, deco de bon goût Un poil bruyant la nuit,...mais on est en ville. Bouchons d oreilles fournis 😜
- Susanne (10/5): -
- Lize (8/5): -
- Schildmeijer (8/5): -
- Gerrit (9/5): Das Camp ist optimal für den Anfang, oder das Ende der Reise. - Alles sehr sauber und gut organisiert. Die Betten waren sehr groß und bequem. Eine große Auswahl an Speisen, zu sehr fairen Preisen. Gab keine Kritikpunkte.
