| Swakopmund Hotel and Entertainment Centre |
This four-star resort conveniently situated at the gateway to the Skeleton Coast, earned its stars within months of opening. Meticulously renovated and restored to its former glory, the historic Old Station Building came to life again on 10 December 1994.
Within weeks of opening, the Hotel walked off with the highest accolade in the hospitality industry when it was voted the "Best Hotel In Namibia
for 1994/ 1995". True to the standard set by the management and staff during the first year, the Swakopmund Hotel was
again voted the "Best Hotel in Namibia for 1995/1996". This achievement is a front runner in Namibia as this is the first time the same Hotel claims the award for two consecutive years.
The Hotel has enjoyed an exciting inaugural year in 1995 and among others has hosted 85 of the world's most beautiful women in the lead up to the 1995 Miss Universe Pageant held in Namibia in May. Presidents, Prime Minister, Business Leaders, Royalty, Celebrities, Local and International Television Crews, World-wide product launches and Major International Conferences, have all had a part to play in this enfolding charter.
This luxury resort caters for all your needs. From the 90 spacious rooms and two sumptuous Presidential suites to the warm and inviting Platform One Restaurant, the Hotel combines traditional Namibian hospitality with service excellence.
Namibia's premier resort offers the best seafood in town at the Captain's Tavern and world class gambling in the state-of-the-art Mermaid Casino with tempting progressive jackpots. This resort also has an Entertainment Centre, complete with a gym, two cinemas, a video-arcade with the latest games specialty shopping and fast food outlet.
The Swakopmund Hotel & Entertainment Centre has found a lucrative niche in the conference market and accommodate up to 350 delegates with ease in the Spitzkoppe Conference Centre. And if you want something a little different this year, the Hotel can cater for the once-in-a-lifetime experience of a conference in the desert !
