We stayed one night there arriving Namibia. The room was large, clean, nice shower with hot water. We didn't enjoyed the swimming pool, the weather was too cold. There is a gas station with basic food nearby, a FNB bank also. The staff has been very friendly. There are drinks and food (fruits, cakes...) in self-service.

We picked Rivendell based on its previous good reviews over other places. It fulfilled all our expectations. It was a good mixture of breakfast provided but with full self-catering facilities if preferred in a central kitchen area. It was also close enough to the city centre to easily pop out for meals if required or to have take-aways delivered.It was... More

Our trip to Namibia was a complete success . I would like to thank the Rivendell team for their warm welcome & special thanks to Ciska who helped & gave us some good advises before we started our trip. I recommand this guest house for its services & affordable price . Irina & Jean Pierre

As others have said, you feel at home and it is a perfect place to organize your holiday or regroup after it! Enjoy and if you can get a pool side room, very very nice!

It is in a good location, only 10 minutes walk to the city centre but in a peaceful suburban street. The grounds are safe and secure (with secure parking) and have a nice sunny garden and outdoor...

It was the second time we stayed in Rivendell Guesthouse to start a trip in Namibia and the service is still perfect. Nice clean rooms, very friendly staff, nice breakfast, 10 min walk from the center of Windhoek. I would recommend this guesthouse to my friends! Lisbeth Belgium

After two days of flights from US to Namibia, we needed a rest. Our stay at Rivendell was pre-arranged by Wild-Dog Safaris. We were very pleased with the selection. We were warmly greeted by the staff. We had a small en-suite room overlooking the small pool. The house is surrounded by lush, shady plants. It is in a very quiet... More

Over all a good place to stay, clean rooms, friendly staff, nice pool. Breakfast is a bit expensive and you will need a taxi to go into town. If you are looking for a place that is quiet and relaxing, this place is a good choice, if you like to be in the middle of things, you should look for... More
