We stayed here two weeks while we were looking for a more permanent place to live in Windhoek. It was a really good place to stay. Especially the kitchen is excellent and kept very clean. The staff were really friendly and also very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of information, ranging from restaurants, good areas to live in to... more

Very reasonably priced, especially as breakfast is included. Private rooms and dorms are clean and nicely arranged. Kingfisher (a dorm) can be noisier. A good place to meet other travellers. The most pleasant hostel in Windhoek. Very friendly and helpful staff. more

We stayed here 3 times during a trip earlier this year. The place is very well run, with comfortable rooms, decent internet and all the facilities that a traveller would need, as well as a fantastic kitchen. Only thing I would say is that the drains smell a bit in a couple of the downstairs rooms (Kudu and the ones... more

We have been in Namibia and surroundings for almost 8 weeks performing work for our Swedish university. We have stayed at several different places and slept in everything from tents to, well at least semi-luxurious lodges. Our base during this time has been Chameleon in Windhoek and I can honestly say that no other place has been able to compare... more

I was here for 4 days and I really enjoyed my stay! The staff is extraordinary friendly and helps you with all problems/questions. The central location and a shopping center a few walking minutes away makes it even more attractive. I can definitely recommend the hostel! Cheers, Nadine more

Stayed in this Hostel for two nights. The Hostel itself is great: Nice pool, rooms ok and standard breakfast. The manager of the hostel was pretty rude to some guests, though. Additionally he lets his local staff sleep on the floor in a lumber-room w no windows more

I really enjoyed staying at Chameleon after the desert trip they organised. We had a large room, with two single beds and a large bathroom. It was all very convenient, with nice African design. The hostel is located quite close to the center of Windhoek, you can walk the distance. As I said we also did a tour with them... more
