Cleanliness
9.5
Multiple guests described the property as clean, comfortable and well maintained (explicit mention: 'very comfortable, safe, clean').
Service
8
Mixed reports: some staff were very friendly and attentive (valet, restaurant, spa), but several reviews call out poor front-desk attitude, delayed/failed shuttle coordination and inconsistent responsiveness.
Location
9.5
Seen as very safe and convenient with on-site restaurants and good security fencing; not in the city centre (which some guests view positively).
Room Quality
9.2
Rooms widely praised (upgrade to a villa, 'superbly appointed', large bathrooms, attractive gardens and rooftop views), though a courtyard-facing room experienced noise from a loud group.
Amenities
8.6
Good variety (spa, multiple restaurants, rooftop bar, functional small gym, well-guarded parking) but some limitations: pool access tied to spa booking and availability caused frustration.
Value for Money
8
Several guests felt price/value was not fully aligned (headline complaint 'Preis/Leistungsverhältnis stimmt nicht ganz'); breakfast quality for the price was called out as underwhelming by some.
Food and Beverage
9.3
Strong on restaurant variety and overall food offering (one review calls restaurants a 'winner'), though breakfast experiences varied from 'excellent' to 'rather mager' and occasional service issues during breakfast service.
Overall Experience
9.9
Overall very positive impressions (several 'incredible' or 'comfortable' mentions) despite notable service and breakfast inconsistencies; safety, ambience and facilities drive a high overall score.

Ok
Pros:

Visually pleasing , nearby resteraunt in the location was nice , large bathroom

Cons:

Pool only available with 1hr spa booking per person however there were no appointments left so we could not use the facilities - should be communicated prior so appointment and access could be booked , 5 star hotels should always have access to a pool/spa area. Rooms facing courtyard, large loud group that was celebrating made sleeping early difficult . Breakfast area under construction, alternative did not have enough space and we had to multiple times ask if someone could please help set an extra table - breakfast waffle arrived half burnt. Check in at 2pm however room was not ready at 2 only after i insisted to check for it - we pay from 2pm so this should be bare minimum and the receptions staff attitude was rather shocking , I was treated as a nuisance… by far the worst hospitality during our entire stay- everywhere else the service and staff was amazing the security guards by the parking were very kind and helpful and made up for the actual hotel staffs attitude

Very safe place to stay in Windhoek
Pros:

The Weinberg is a very nice hotel behind security fencing. It is very comfortable, safe, clean. It has access to safe restaurants on property. I would definitely choose this again to stay in Windhoek. It is not in the city center (which is good).

Cons:

We had a dangerous situation that I was very upset about. We had arranged for the hotel to take us to the shuttle bus (Go2 Shuttle to Sossousvlei), and to pick us up on the return. The outbound transfer and the Go2 Shuttle were just fine and am glad we chose that option versus a personal car. However, upon the return, we arrived a little early. We did not have cell reception in Namibia (despite having AT&T who insisted they had coverage where we were). We used the shuttle bus drivers phone to call the hotel to have the driver meet us earlier. The driver never showed up. We waited to almost 2 hours at a gas station with no way to contact the hotel to follow up. A nice woman who spoke English stopped and asked us if we needed help and arranged a Go2 shuttle for us to get back to the hotel. We were very grateful, but this was extremely unsafe. When I arrived at the hotel I was furious. The front desk had no explanation of why the driver didnt show up.

A great start to our Namibian trip
Pros:

Pictures of The Weinberg’s exterior put me in mind of a motel. The reality is quite different - The Weinberg is upscale by Windhoek standards. The hotel is located on the edge of town, on the side nearest to the international airport. As such, it’s very convenient for those just arrived or about to depart the country.

There are several restaurants in the compound in which the hotel lies. These attract a prosperous Namibian clientele. Soon after arrival, we had dinner at the Butcher Block Steakhouse, which was excellent. We were also able to withdraw cash in safety at an ATM located next to the restaurant.

Before dinner, we stopped off at the hotel bar. I was a little cynical about a bar situated only a few storeys from ground level being dubbed the “Sky Lounge”. However, the hotel’s elevated location means the bar has good views over the city, including at sunset. The only thing that marred the experience was a fellow English patron moaning loudly and at length about potholes (English potholes, not Namibian potholes). We changed table.

Staff members were very polite and helpful in guiding us with a few practicalities, as recent arrivals in Namibia. Breakfast was a pleasant, peaceful experience which made me almost reluctant to embark on the next stage of our journey - a long drive to Sesreim.
