Generally very nice. Room was nice with a nice small patio. Gardens and grounds are fantastic. Breakfast is remarkable with all possibilities on offer. Only complaint for us was no hot water on the first morning. Some rooms appear to be larger than others as ours seemed a bit small. Very friendly and helpful staff.

We had a very nice room, the staff were very pleasant and the breakfast was excellent, but there was an issue with our bedroom fan which made a really loud and irritating sound. We informed the staff, they apologized and called an electrician, but the issue was not resolved and we had two hot nights. There was also a power... More

Very nice GH we had one garden room and room number 7 which is a small apartment. Clean and very friendly staff. Nice breakfast. Free Wifi. The GH is also within walking distance from everything to see and do within Swakopmund.

We stayed two nights at the An der Mole apartment and wished we could have stayed longer. On arrival at Cornerstone Guesthouse we were welcomed by Bettina who explained everything about the apartment and made several phone calls for us to make reservations for dinner. After that she lent us a mobile phone which we could use during our stay... More

What a treat to stay here after a round of bush camps. The rooms are well designed and appointed, and more importantly, spotlessly clean. Cornerstone is conveniently located and within walking distance to two of the best restaurants in town, the Tug and the Jetty, and within 15 minutes walk to the town center. The breakfast itself deserves an award... More

First impressions are so important. So when we – a group of 4 friends – arrived at the Cornerstone Guesthouse and were made to feel at home immediately by the warm welcome Peter and Margo extended us, we knew we were in for a treat. We were not disappointed. The rooms we got overlooking the well-kept court yard were modern,... More

We stayed at An Der Mole apartment belonging to Cornerstone and it was beautifully clean and comfortable. Excellent balcony overlooking the sea. Tasty breakfasts at the guesthouse and nothing was too much trouble for the owners Peter and Margo. We will hopefully return.

We stayed at the Cornerstone B&B for two nights at the end of our stay in Namibia. This B&B sets the standard for all B&B's, in fact it is almost like a boutique hotel instead of a B&B. Friendly welcome, service and advice from Bettina. Peter was also an excellent host at breakfast and as a coeliac I was very... More

Swakopmund is not a large town so any place to stay would be convenient for the casual visitor. The hosts at the Cornerstone Guesthouse were very welcoming and the service was fine, polite and efficient. The room we stayed in was clean and tidy and the bed very comfortable. Parking was a slight problem since their enclosed and secure car... More
