Weinberg Hotel

The Weinberg Windhoek is set within a former wine estate in Klein Windhoek, an upscale suburb of Namibia’s capital city. The preserved early 20th-century house is part of the Gondwana Collection Namibia. Common areas have plush sofas, layered textures and warm decor. Other buildings, painted white with striped awnings, are interspersed with lushly planted gardens, outdoor seating areas and a central courtyard with fountains. 

Rooms also combine modern and heritage elements, with a largely white palette softened with local art, rich, earthy furnishings and the occasional pop of bold pattern or colour. Some have generous balconies with courtyard views, while luxury loft rooms, with winding staircases, living areas and small kitchens, can sleep up to four people.

Meals are prepared using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Breakfast, eaten in the light-filled dining room or on the terrace, includes fresh fruits and traditional cooked breakfasts, while lunch and dinner menus feature dishes like roasted bone marrow, steak and risotto. Sundowners are best enjoyed at Sky Lounge, a chic rooftop terrace with small plates, an excellent wine list and views across Windhoek to the Auas Mountains.
