Comfortable accommodation in central Swakopmund
Lounge, restaurant, bar, terrace, and conference facilities
A total of forty-eight rooms and suites, including five family units
Beach walks and swimming, town tours, quad biking, sand boarding, fishing, coast cruises, and trips to the seal colony
Due to its central position, Hansa Hotel is just a short stroll from Swakopmund’s shops, restaurants, cafés, and bars.
It’s also close to the coast, fabulous for beach walks and swimming.
Sightseeing tours are a great introduction to some of the most famous attractions, not least the town’s prison and its library with spectacular tower.
Swakopmund Museum is well worth visiting too, as are the National Marine Aquarium and the stunning crystal gallery. Travellers hoping for an adrenalin hit can head out to the Namib Desert dunes, for sand boarding, quad biking, and skydiving.
Desert safaris are available too! More peaceful pastimes include fishing and coast cruises. And a number of excursions are also on offer, for example to Cape Cross seal colony.
Staff at Hansa are happy to help you decide how to spend your time here, and they can also make bookings for you.
Hansa Hotel is situated at 3 Hendrik Witbooi Street, in Central Swakopmund. It can be accessed via road transfer from the town’s airport, a journey of just 6 kilometres. Alternatively, you can self-drive from Windhoek, or take a taxi or minibus from Namibia’s capital city. Swakopmund can also be approached from Walvis Bay, 35 kilometres away.
The hotel’s communal spaces are very well presented.
Reception is particularly impressive, with its contrast of light marble and dark wood. There are some leather sofas and occasional tables here, providing a sumptuous lounge area. Hansa has a residents’ lounge too, featuring a modest collection of books, wood panelling, and a cosy fireplace. This seating area adjoins a bar, so it’s a pleasant place in which to relax and get to know your fellow travellers. The hotel’s main dining room is the elegant Equestrian Room – here, guests tuck in to breakfasts, as well as dinners such as seafood specialties. Lunches are provided on The Terrace, a less formal yet equally pleasant area in which to dine, with its views of the hotel’s courtyard gardens. The Terrace is sometimes used for cocktail parties, or for receptions for business clients. Conference rooms are also available, and a number of services are on offer throughout the hotel – secretarial assistance, foreign exchange, laundry, dry cleaning, babysitting, courtesy transport, and car wash. You can even order lunch packs, if you are planning on a grand day out in Swakopmund and surrounds!
