This is certainly a luxury hotel compared to the houses in which the residents of Opuwo live. It would be unfair to compare this hotel to a 'luxury' hotel in (for example) a European city. However they do charge European prices (N$ 655 p.p. sharing p. night for a standard room with no view, and N$ 930 p.p. sharing p.... More

The hotel is located on the hill right outside of Opuwo (which is a very interesting village). The view from the hotel is beautiful. We have spent two nights there in a deluxe room. The room itself was good but I would not define it deluxe. However, it was very comortable. The main building of the hotel is really cool... More

A very pleasant stay in Opuwo, a wonderful town that has a Tatooine-feel to it (Star Wars), but less dangerous. many different people and dresses mixing on the straats. Just off this bustlking place, is the Opuwo Country Hotel, where we found cold beer, an even colder infinity swimming pool, and a beautiful sunset. Good choice of food, and silent... More

The road up to the hotel is a little hairy, but this seems to be the only proper hotel in town. We stayed 2 nights. The pool area and view over the countryside are lovely. Food was excellent both nights. Oryx steak cooked to order on the outdoor barbie. Only problem is, we seemed to have the worst rooms at... More

The hotel (and the pool) is beautiful, but a couple of basic amenities were conspicuously absent: no in-room safe, no shampoo, and the walls are very thin. The only dinner option both nights we were there was the pricey buffet. If i had to do it again I'd only stay one night.

We were delighted to arrive at this beautiful hotel with wonderful views across the country. We arrived just at sunset which made it all so much more appealing. The reception area is very inviting and our room was nice, the service friendly and the buffet (dinner and breakfast) very adequate. And we thoroughly enjoyed the trip to a Himba village... More

Good stay for a visit of Opuwo. It is high up on a hill which is steep and not paved so a good, steady car is necessary.

fantastic hotel, on a top of a hill overlooking hills along the namibian-angolan border. we stopped there for lunch, and decided to stay two nights. lunch was good, but breakfast and dinner were buffet style only. there is an infinity pool with an awesome view. rooms were okay, if nothing special. the staff was extremely helpful and nice. the internet...

After we stayed at the Twyfelfontein Country Lodge which is owned by the same corporation then the Opuwo Country Hotel my expectations were not too high (read my review of that lodge as well). However when we got there it was totally different in a good way. The staff was really nice and relaxed. My wife an me made friends... More

Probably somewhere you will stay for one night to break a journey. Stunning situation on a hill above Opuwo (which is a pretty "nothing" sort of town - apart from the wonderful people-watching of Himba and Herrero on the streets). Lovely swimming pool and dining on the terrace. The gardens are alive with birds. Because this is quite a large... More
