Well run, good location
We stayed two nights at Sossuvlei Lodge - as it is a perfect jumping off point into the national park. This location worked well for their organised morning tour (which eas good) and a self-guided trip to Sesriem Canyon.
The lodge is larger and more busy than many other in Namibia (because of the location) so be prepared for a lot of people and Western style busy dinner buffet.
The lodge is unbounded to the desert which is nice for seeing Oryx come wandering nearby.
Our room was large, but the bathroom oddly hot with a strange smell.
Overall, the place was what we wanted so we we're pleased with our stay.

Super Awesome Stay
We had an amazing stay! Room 145 with the little pool was stunning! We used the pool everyday. The room is super spacious, beautifully decorated, every detail is perfect. The food was very good with a big variety to choose from. We took one of their activity flights to see an aerial view, highly recommend it!

The lodge's dinner buffet is a highlight, featuring a diverse and delicious spread that caters to various tastes. The combination of the delectable dining options and the lodge's strategic positioning make it an excellent choice for travelers seeking both culinary delights and convenient access to the mesmerizing Sossusvlei landscape.

The Sossuvlei Lodge is a beautiful property, the staff we're friendly and professional. The meals are buffets with plenty of choices and good quality food. The Lodge is just outside the Sossuvlei park entrance do its conveniently located to the Dunes, Sesriem canyon and Deadvlei.

One of the best safari lodges that I have been to. Rooms are fantastic, food and service all very very good and the safari tours from the lodge one of the very best. A great place and would highly recommed it. I drove a Sedan vehicle from Walvis Bay, the road is hectic and whilst you get to see some magic places along the way, I would rather fly, there is an airport very close to the lodge.

This property was decent and clean and very close to the dunes entry area. Our unit was a bit of a walk away from the parking area so that was a challenge. Also, there is no wifi in the rooms (really no wifi in all of the area). You had to go to the restaurant or bar area to get wifi and that was very frustrating. I could not even make phone calls from my room without a wifi connection. I think this information should be made known ahead of time so people can prepare for that situation.

Proche des dunes
Bungalow confortable avec petite terrasse. Lodge bien situé à l'entrée du parc de Sossusvlei. Petit-déjeuner pouvant être pris assez tôt pour pouvoir partir à l'aube dans les dunes. Les campeurs ou autres personnes ne bénéficiant pas de repas dans leur lodge peuvent venir prendre le repas du soir. Sous forme de buffet bien fourni avec braai pour la cuisson des différentes viandes. De ce fait ambiance moins intime vu la forte fréquentation. La journée, on peut parfois y apercevoir des springbok, autruches ....

Välj annat, för det priset!
En lodge för det priset, då förväntar man sig top notch! Söndriga poolhanddukar, ingen service vid poolen, medioker kvällsbuffe. Hade inte haft några åsikter om man checkat in på ett 3 stjärnor, men detta- nej! Välj annat hotell
