Tucked away in a quiet suburb of Windhoek, Galton House is a sanctuary of quiet, cool comfort – out of the heat and dust of Namibia. What the 9 en-suite rooms are known for most is their size – this may be because of the minimalist nature of the interior decorating, but it is appreciated, especially if you need to re-pack bags before heading out into the wilderness for a few days.
The lounge area is a great place to relax with comfortable furniture and where friendly staff are always on-hand to bring you a relaxing cup of tea or afternoon refreshment. The pool is certainly heaven-sent after days on the road exploring this breath-taking but very hot country.
Breakfast, a continental-style buffet with made-to-order eggs, will get you off to a good start. Galton House offers guests lunch options and a 3-course dinner but you can also travel the short distance into the city to sample some of what the local restaurants have to offer.
The team at Galton has many years of experience in the hospitality industry and they really understand what good service is about, which makes it the perfect stopover in Windhoek.
Visit Joe's Beerhouse for dinner; explore the city of Windhoek and its interesting architecture from the Gothic-meets-Art Nouveau Lutheran Christ Church to the Parliament gardens in the historic centre of the city.
