Weird design of the room. Breakfast no thrills. According to the warning signs on site and what the staff told us we should not walk around in the neighbourhood with any kind of valuables on show. It was like: -"you WILL get robbed". We only stayed one night before our flight back to europe and did not spend much time outside the guesthouse so can't really judge how true this is. But we survived. Didn't get robbed and didn't feel unsafe walking around.

Cosy place with a small but well needed pool. Most staff very alert and helpful. Massage on site was nice. Pretty central location. Enjoyed the sitting areas.

This was my base in Windhoek for my various trips in Namibia. It is a really great place for a traveller to stay. The staff are really friendly and helpful. The included breakfast is simple and good. In the evenings they provide a hearty dinner for NAD150, you book it when you arrive. It is easy walking distance from a major shopping centre that has everything you need. Rooms are clean.

Chameleon Backpackers is well-staffed and organized, with clean rooms and a good breakfast. We had a bunch of laundry to clean, and they did 6-7 loads at a decent price. We walked to Pizzeria Sicillia for dinner and loved it. This was the last few days of our Namibia trip, but lots of tours and activities could be booked through the hostel, if you wanted.

I liked everything, but if I were to complain, I'd say breakfast could be more interesting and coffee could be better than an instant one.

Atmosphere - place full of open people travelling through Namibia. Lots o places to sit around common areas makes it very much like home, and gives opportunity to talk with interesting people. It is though quiet after 22. Good range of trips and helpful information. Dinner options within the place. Pool is small but refreshing.

It was included at the start of my safari and I really loved staying here. The staff are very friendly and they organized a quiz and bbq the first night I was there. Great way to meet people. My room was a private room with en-suite and really comfortable. Laundry was great. Would definitely recommend and have already told people all about it!

Comfortable hostel within easy walking distance of central Windhoek shops/cafes/attractions. Clean, tidy and comfortable room with A/C if needed and good hot water supply. Friendly staff, bar area with seating and pool table. Fairly simple breakfast but tasty and plenty to eat. Secure parking. Would recommend and we are going back before we fly out of Windhoek.

the general mood of this place is amazing. It is in Windhoek but it is like staying in a country accomodation thanks to its open spaces and general facilities. I totally reccomend it!

Really helpful reception. Nice chill vibe. The included breakfast is simple and good. Self catering kitchen if you want, and the bar serves pizza as well. Very close to the centre of town. Reception will help with taxis, getting drivers and anything you need.

Nothing of significance.

The Hostel: Private room was spacious, welcoming, functional and clean. WiFi network, shower and water pressure all worked great. Common area offer cozy vibes, a pool, bar and plenty of seating. The Stay: The bed was comfortable and the room is well designed. Located in a safe part of town with supermarkets, shopping and city landmarks nearby. The hostel is gated with keycard scanning for access control. Conveniently located and a short distance to most attractions (30-40 minute shuttle ride from WDH airport). The Service: The staff were kind and helpful. They were always available to answer questions and offer free walking tours every day. Special shout out to Ginette for all the great information on the history of Windhoek!

A great oasis for a weary traveler. Friendly staff, clean accommodations, central location and a bar: what more can you be looking for?! Gated as well so security is premium.

The secured parking, communal areas/pool, breakfast and option to have the nightly meal were all excellent. It was a great location for us dropping off our vehicle at Europcar right across the street.

There were no choices of meals to have for dinner. One is forced to eat the only meal that is decided to be served on that particular night. Too many types of beers on menu at the bar and only one cider type

I liked the friendly staff, the comfy room with good lighting not to mention the yummy breakfast.

Limited food options at the bar.
