PELICAN BAY HOTEL

This hotel could be the gem of Pelican Bay. Alas it is somewhat neglected due to a serious lack of maintenance.
Opened in 2003, it feels like twice its age at least.

Our room was antiquated and tired. But the beds were clean and comfortable. The safe was not working, leaking batteries made it unusable. The card reader on the room door was not working either, we had to go to the reception for them to open the door every time we got out.
Taped electric wires in the cupboards are, I expect even for Namibian standards, surely not up too any safety code.
There was coffee, thee and cups, but no water heater. This was quickly fixed.
The doorframe of the bathroom rotting on its base wad a sight for sore eyes. So were the stains on the carpet and the greasy fingerprints on the window left from the previous occupants. The decks in front of the rooms to the seaside have not been cleaned for ages.

All these little things surely were avoidable if properly checked and maintained.

Hope for a quiet night? Bad luck. Thanks to the passage door to the adjacent room, you hear all the conversations and moves in the next room. And I expect they hear you too. No privacy whatsoever.

Very luckily the staff and service made the difference. They were as helpful as possible to relieve some our issues. BIG thanks to all of them.

Nice beach front hotel for a real holiday and relaxation.

Nice hotel but not much to do in the area. Stay for a night or two max.

wifi not working , no DSTV,

Un hôtel bien situé mais qui aurait besoin d'un rafraîchissement.
