Nice clean comfy rooms. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good reataurant and breakfast. Nice garden and close to town and shops. Just needs a bench for luggage and comfy chair to sit on in room where we stayed. Otherwise you always have to siit on bed.
Beds are bit short but comfy.

This Hotel is the ideal place to stay if you are limited on time want to enjoy the Cheetah experience at the Cheetah Conservation Fund. The room is enormous and very nice with a living room and a sleeping room. You can walk to the restaurant and are very near to the place where cheetahs live and where the activities with them take place. Take into account that to get to the Conservation Fund from Otjiwarongo you have 44 km of gravel. The dinner was very good and breakfast quite good. By booking this place you are also supporting the excellent conservation work being done by the Fund

This is a perfect halfway house from Etosha to Windhoek.
This is a perfect halfway house from Etosha to Windhoek.
We left Etosha to travel south, visiting the Cheetah Conservation Foundation at Otjiwarongo and then enjoying a relaxed dinner and evening at Out of Town Africa Lodge.
Our stay was perfect. The staff could not have been more helpful and accommodating.
Breakfast was relaxed, we were not the early birds, but we were not rushed away by the staff.
I highly recommend this little gem of a town and place to stay.

We stayed 2 nights but most travellers would probably stay one. Not very busy and this is probably because it is too far away to be a sensible base for exploring Etosha. A visit to the nearby Cheetah Foundation is well worth the time

Out of Africa Town Lodge exceeded all our expectations as far as accommodation, ambience, comfort, friendliness and helpfulness of the staff as well as superb dinner on the outdoor patio and a delicious buffet breakfast.
I would have no hesitation in recommending this beautiful hotel to friends and family and would love to spend more time there next time we're travelling through Otjiwarongo.

This is a crossroad town.
This is a crossroad town. Good place for an overnight stay, gas up or eat. Not a place I would visit for its tourist attractions. This is the closest you can stay when visiting the Cheetah Conservation Fund and I found the drive to the CCF quite easy.

Considered the capital of the Region with all the government functions represented. The big chain grocery stores are also present. The town have friendly and helpful locals and the restaurants are providing exceptionally tasty food.

Otjiwarongo a nice and clean town and easy to get around.
Otjiwarongo a nice and clean town and easy to get around. Casa Forno a excellent restaurant and a good place to eat. I visited Infotech Computers to sort out a modem connecting problem and they assisted me very helpful.
Wow!! Where to start?! Beautiful, large rooms...great food...location for views of the Waterberg Plateau...nearby waterhole for viewing local wildlife...but most of all, immediate access to the Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) and all of the activities associated with that: the Cheetah run, the Cheetah safari and the behind-the-scenes tour...INCREDIBLE!! We even had the opportunity to meet with Dr. Laurie Marker, the founder of CCF. The guides and staff of the CCF were all amazingly knowledgeable, friendly and passionate about their work.
What a lovely Hotel with such modern and stunning rooms. At check-in we were told that we were put into the newly renovated rooms and I uploaded some pictures of the rooms (hope they are uploaded since sometimes they do not appear on the website). Best dinning experience in Namibia so far; the restaurant serves some authentic traditional southern African dishes such as bototie and offers a wide selection of South African wines. This place is a meat lovers paradise! Meat dishes are very cheap. Staff extremely polite and engaging.
The lodge, facilities and rooms are all excellent. The setting is beautiful and the walks/game drive is worth the visit alone. Lots of animals and birds to see. Maals are very good indeed and the staff amongst the friendliest and most hospitable I have met with in nearly 35 years of travelling to Namibia. All in all simply outstanding value for money and the perfect place to stay for a first night in Namibia.
TOP ! Excellent place to stay ! Underrated !
Very clean room and bathroom, very good bed and a spacious room with terrace (view on the animals)
Staff was very helpfull and always with a smile.
You can have dinner at the hotel, choice of 3 course - 2 course or 1 course, this way you are not obliged to take an entire menu, which is really an added value !
The hotel has a perfect location on the main road near the shopping center and the crossroads of the two main intersections. Guarded private parking was nice and the wifi was reasonable. No dinner served at the location but was close to a number of restaurants. The room was large, comfortable and there was a nice work space.
Beautiful hotel, we booked one night here during our trip to do the rhino tracking in the morning which was very good and recommended. The place is beautiful and the food is amazing, so different from the rest of places where we stayed during our trip in Namibia. Dinner and breakfast totally recommended.
The hotel is well situated in Otjiwarongo with it's own restaurant, which serves big dishes. It is also close to other places inside Otjiwarongo. We had to leave early and missed the breakfast, but got a nice 'breakfast to go' prepared by the staff the night before we left.
This place is amazing, starting from the appearance to all its areas and facilities. You will find yourself in a high-end hotel for a very good price. Confortable, enjoyable and safe private parking.
Give a chance to its restaurant and specially the "boboti" :)
Lovely hotel with nice pool & super family rooms with separate upstairs. Playground for kids to play. Clean & spacious, would definitely stay again. Great for a stop over or even longer. Food & service were very good. Good value for money.
Just beautiful. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. Lovely patio to watch the animals. Nice pool area. No power at dinner, but we had a wonderful candlelight dinner. You would never know the power was down.
Staff were very nice.
It was our first night in Namibia and the host made us feel very welcome and gave us loads of tips about the area and game viewing. Lots of wildlife at the farm, especially birds, cold beer on tap, what else could you want?
A great gate away for hotels and a convenient stop over from Zambezi enroute to the coast. The tented accommodation was great and in the wilderness. The hostess is great company and the hot dinner was most welcome.
Excellent value, amazing views, the mountain view room is large and has everything you would need. Common areas are comfortable and ample. Staff and owners were great. Food was good.
