Hadassa is a guesthouse at 36 Lang Street in Otjiwarongo, the farming town on the B1 about 250 km north of Windhoek. It opened in 2009 and most of the staff have been there since the start. The point of staying here is the location: it breaks the drive to Etosha, the guesthouse puts the park about an hour and a quarter away, and the Waterberg and the Cheetah Conservation Fund are both close by.

What to expect

The 17 rooms are set among three gardens and a pool, and no two are decorated quite the same. The standard rooms are the smaller ones (15 to 25 m²) and sleep one to four. The luxury doubles, twins and triples are larger (25 to 35 m²) and add a walk-in shower, a separate toilet, a small private terrace and a safe. All rooms have air-conditioning, a fridge, a kettle, DStv and free Wi-Fi.

The pool is salt-treated and solar-heated. A massage therapist works on site, and you can book a session with your room or when you arrive. Breakfast is on the services list, and there is a restaurant area.

Practical details

  • Phone: +264 67 307 505 (7am to 9pm). Email hadassa@otjiweb.com.
  • Secure parking, laundry, and the guesthouse describes itself as wheelchair friendly.
  • Coming up the B1 from Windhoek, turn right at the first roundabout into town. It is opposite Out of Africa Lodge.

Good to know

The website runs in English, French and German, and the guesthouse supports Peri Naua, a French charity in Otjiwarongo working with children from poor families. Families of more than four are asked to contact the guesthouse directly.
