I first stayed here in 1989, when it was run by the mother and daughter Rapmund team, and several times since. Now, the elder Mrs. Rapmund is gone, and her daughter has sold the hotel to cousins, so it is still in the family. It is a little more impersonal now, but this remains the best situated hotel in the... More

We stayed for three days during December holidays and was pleasantly surprised at the value for money we got. We had the family room, it had a sea view and thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast which was included in the rate. Friendly staff, helpful management and a hotel which we will visit again.

I have been going to Namibia for many years so I know it well. If you want a great place to stay with good value, there is no better. As is typical of Swakopmund, there is no A/C but the ocean breeze cools everything well. The grounds and rooms are well kept and comfortable. You get an ocean view from... More

Found this room very tired and dated. Wood paneling with an old green carpet. Very small bathroom. Single beds. Narrow hallways. In need of a complete remodel. Would give it a pass.

This pension is an amazing location! You are 2 minutes from the center or the beach! The value is really good for Swakopmund. We stayed for 4 nights in December and for the first 2 nights had a recently renovated room which was very clean and well done for our last 2 nights they moved us to a sea view... More

Pension Rapmund is perfectly located in central Swakopmund, a short walking distance from many of the town’s attractions & cafes/restaurants. Our room was simple, bright & clean – the only small concern being the ceiling of the bathroom looked to be old low–density type asbestos panels that weren’t in the best condition. The breakfast was very good. I think we... More

Good clean hotel in the heart of Swakopmund - we had 2 seaview rooms which were light and airy and very clean. Breakfast is also great and overall it's really good value for money.

Last years always stayed here for 2 nights on our trips to Namibia because it has good location and good breakfast. The rooms however needed some updating - which I specified in an earlier review I think. Now the rooms have been repainted, the bathrooms have been redone and the breakfast room has been updated in nice fresh colours and... More
