  Alucinante

  Un espectáculo para la vista dormir a pie del cañón, respirando tranquilidad por todos los poros. La amabilidad del personal, decoración y servicio excelente. Durante la cena nos sorprendieron con unos cantos africanos que animaron la velada. Merece la pena recorrer tantos kilómetros para llegar allí.

  preciosa decoración

  Hemos pasado 2 noches en este precioso hotel con muchísimo encanto. Desde el momento en que cruzamos la puerta, supimos que habíamos hecho una buena elección. Decoración totalmente cuidada sin ser nada cargante, centrada en su espectacular zona común, pero manteniendo un equilibrio con la decoración de las habitaciones. Las habitaciones todas ellas con unas vistas de revista! Al estar justo en el borde del canyon. Habitación muy amplia y cómoda. Sobre las comidas todas muy bien, al igual que las actividades, ya que puedes bajar al fondo del canyon e incluso bañarte en el río. El personal tanto del staff como de la dirección, encantadores. Sin duda es la mejor opción en el Fish River.

  Unique location, just at the rim of the canyon!

  We stayed 3 nights at unique location at the rim of the canyon, which offers fantastic views over the canyon. Rooms are well equipped and offer a beautiful view, you can see the sun rise laying in bed. We did the canyon drive and the sundowner drive with our guide Dassy. Both were beautiful excursions, he did an excellent job. Furthermore we did two hikes along the canyon rim which were great as well. Food was nice and served in a beautiful setting. Our view on the two main points of criticism you might read about this lodge: The road to the lodge, in particular the last part, isn't a motorway, but it is not particularly difficult to drive. A car with high clearance is recommended, but a 4x4 is definitely not necessary. You hear the wind in the cabins from late afternoon onwards, but it was never disturbing in a way that it would have prevented us from sleeping. The view you have over the canyon in exchange is just unique.

  Perfect view of the Fish River Canyon

  Rooms have a great view of the Canyon, they have a yoga platform great for anyone that wants to exercise while they are there, the drive down the Canyon was amazing the tour guide was very informative, however no Wi-Fi or Air Conditioning in the rooms but it was raining so it wasn't that hot. Great experience.

  1 of the 100 places you need to visit before you die, no doubts

  Fish River Lodge is simply remarkable, well worth to be on every list of 100 places you need to visit before you die The chalets in contemporary minimalistic (if still luxurious) style are perched on the western rim of the canyon and provide breath-taking views. The beds are comfortable and big, there is a choice of indoor and outdoor showers and every sunrise or sunset is a real spectacle here, which can be observed through big floor to ceiling windows, or from the chairs outside. The storms, if you are lucky to witness one, are also a fantastic show of light and drama. The view on the canyon is a priority of course - even the main lodge is built in such way as to not distract from it tall windows, stone and wood as main materials, earthy palette of colours; all this inspired by austere, barren and yet alluring landscape around. Breakfasts are very decent, and candle light dinners even better. If guests are lucky and there is an occasion (or no occasion at all but just a lucky day) the staff may be tempted to sing at dinner, and for us it was such great fun to listen, absolutely amazing. Thank you for this Fish River Lodge! Facilities of the lodge are definitely five stars. A pool with a view is a total understatement here. No pool can be more impressive than this; perched on the very ridge of the canyon, its waters reflecting incredibly blue sky and also Kokerboom trees growing nearby. At night, when canyon is not visible, the sky makes up for it. Milky way seems to be so close, just raise your hands and you will touch the stars. The activities offered are a great adventure, too. We went for a sundowner and also a day trip down the canyon, we could see lots of wildlife including mountain zebras, klipspringers, steenboks and many birds. The guides were very informative and friendly. Definitely one of the highlights of our last trip to Namibia.
