We were booked in here for 2 nights, the reception process was long winded, but when we got to the rooms they were very nice, the down side was where they had sprayed to get rid on insects they were not swept up so there were a number of bugs on the floor, the pool was disgusting on the day...

We did not stay at Namutoni, only had a good lunch and watched birds at the waterhole (good). It seemed to be of equally high standard as Okaukuejo and Halali, but smaller and with more green. The waterholes around Namutoni such as Kalkheuwel, Chudob and Springbokfontein had loads of animals. Driving from Halali we also had cheetah and leopard by... More

This lodge, with its excellent location in an old fort at the Eastern end of Etosha, is run by the same group as Okaukejo Resort located in West Etosha and should have received a much better rating. Unfortunately, there is no similarity to Okaukejo and the whole place was a great disappointment. The management, if on site, were totally invisible... More

We were there in early December so it was very quiet. A wonderful very friendly and helpful stall. Great mammal and bird viewing in the area. More

The campsite is located close to the Von Lindequist Gate in Etosha National Park. We had a very good grass site at a less popular camp ground (compared to Okaukuejo). The amenities were clean & there is a lovely pool area. The restaurants & bar are located in the Old Fort. There is also a floodlit waterhole viewing area from... More

We stayed in another bush chalet but this one did not allow any self-catering which means you have to eat the buffet .You have to park your car in the designated area and make use of a porter to transport your luggage to your chalet.The chalets are - yet again - open-plan bedroom and bathroom but are luxurious! The water... More

This hotel situated in a colonial German fort provides very stylish and comfortable rooms, with air conditioning that works, unlike many other hotels we stayed in in Namibia. The grounds are pleasant and there a interesting waterhole with a viewing platform. The buffet food was adequate. We had a very pleasant stay More

Namutoni camp was a highlight for us at Etosha. The accomodation was wonderful. The rooms are NOT inside the castle as this seems to be a misconception. Instead you can enjoy meals in the castle which is a magical location for dinner and lunch. Food was very good, helped by the location. Room was bright, airy, spacious and new. They... More

Namutoni itself doesn't have the best waterhole but in the immediate area we found the best game viewing in Etosha. Food excellent, surroundings atmospheric but who on earth designed those bedrooms? Intended, no doubt, to be modern and stylish they are just downright annoying. Light switches are baffling and, in any case, the artisan lampshades keep all the light to... More

We were told that the rooms used to be in the original castle and a few years ago they built new rooms in the grounds. The bedroom is huge; the bathroom larger and both quite dysfunctional. There is a large opening but no door between the bedroom and the bathroom but two steps down which seem designed to cause greatest... More
