We stayed at the Rostock Ritz for 2 nights and had an amazing time. When staying at the Rostock Ritz don't forget that: - this place is not owned by a large hotel group - it is in the middle of nowhere (which makes it very charming) The rooms might be bit small but the common areas are comfortable and...

I had been advised by my travel agent what to expect from this hotel so it didn't disappoint. The best thing about the hotel is the location and the breakfasts - the worst is the evening cuisine and the rooms themselves. Cuisine - think prawn cocktail, chicken in the basket & black forest gateaux/ Abagails Party!! Rooms - think small... More

After reading the previous reviews, we decided to splurge and booked the 2 large rooms for 2 nights On our arrival we were told ( without apology) that only one large room was available. We were offered a regular room at a reduced price. The regular rooms are miniscule. It was very hot and stuffy and unless one leaves the... More

Discovered the Rostock Ritz on my first trip to the Namib Desert in 2007 when we picked up lunch on our way thru to Swakop from Sossusvlei. My understanding is most people use it as a stopover this way and stay one night. What a shame! Yes, there's the great views. Yes, there is a very, very nice pool. The... More

This was just what we wanted for a stay in the desert on our second trip to Namibia. Kucki and Meya greeted us at the door and from then on our visit was fantastic Our room was one of the nicest we have ever had in Namibia, a larger suite which I would reccomend as on viewing the standard rooms...

This was our last stop in Namibia and it was absolutely fabulous! In the middle of nowhere and so tranquil and peaceful. The views are stunning (especially from the pool), the igloos were very comfortable and clean. Although the bugs outside were HUGE! There are mosquito nets as well as protection on all the windows and the patio door, so... More

We booked at Rostock Ritz for an overnight stay between Sossusvlei and Swakopmund. On the website the whole establishment looked very nice and quircky, and thus we decided to stay there. We arrived at Rostock and were shown to our rooms. The whole lodge is made out of prefabricated houses as shown on the website and the main areas are... More

I, my husband and my little son have been at Rostock Ritz during our vacation in Namibia. We were looking for a place to stay near to Sossusvlei, on our way from Windhoek to the North via Swakopmund. We booked at the lodge directly, and even got 20% discount for staying longer than 1 night. We had heard about Rostock... More

We were staying here overnight on our way from Swakopmund to Sossusvlei. The lodge is really stunning and an assembly of several stone huts (see pics). You are in the middle of the desert but have a rally nice and luxurious surrounding. Food was very good as well although not everybody might want to try Crocodile. This is obviously not... More
