The staff and service are excellent.
We had a very nice stay after a very bad night at Kameelboom Lodge in Vryburg. The staff is wonderful and very helpful. The plus for us was a 5-sleeper. We are a family of 5 and always struggle to find a place to sleep that suits us. We had a wonderful sleep. Thank you very much, Mariental Hotel.

Disappointing and definitely would not recommend or stay there again!
The place was very nice, clean and relatively safe. However, I would never want to stay there again and would also strongly advise other prospective guests not to stay there. There was music noise from the local community all Saturday night until after 12am (because it sounded like it was right next to the hotel). Furthermore, the WiFi in the rooms did not work at all, so it should not even be advertised, because this is a problem that has been complained about many times in the past. The 1 lady tried to help me with WiFi inside the hotel, and at least after 25 minutes of struggling, I was able to use it. Food from the menu (dinner) was little for the money (small glass of Don Pedro = R60!) and ice cream was out, so I could only order 1 Don Pedro and 1 milkshake. Breakfast was little and out of stock (e.g. muffins). No filter coffee at breakfast, only powdered coffee e.g. Reception was not available upon arrival, there was also no bell for service. I had to walk into the hotel and call before someone came. Also no reception available the next morning. The 1 breakfast staff member went to call her to help e.g. with the struggling WiFi problem. Both were very friendly.

Not what we expected.
The room was very neat, but the fridge wasn't on when we arrived (it was 38 degrees), the air conditioning wasn't working and the shower head was clogged and we couldn't shower. We also had WiFi problems. Not ideal after 14 hours on the road.

A disappointment.
No. The room door was half broken as the wood was not maintained. I found hair from previous guests on the bedding. The kettle was dirty on top. The blinds in the bathroom were broken. Sorry, but it was not a good overnight stay here at all.

Would not recommend Marienthal Hotel for sure.
The staff at Marienthal go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible, but unfortunately the same cannot be said of the owner. The same staff, 3 people in total, handle absolutely everything, from reception to cooks in the kitchen to waiters, so if an order gets wrong one can completely understand it, because there are too few people for the amount booked and already paid guests. But despite that, and the owner also being aware of all the guests at the hotel, and in the midst of power outages, the person will take the hotel's generator home for personal use which only puts more unnecessary pressure on the staff. My mouth hangs open because this selfish action by the owner, but again it can certainly be understood, because they have already been paid.

Mariental Hotel 's response
Goeie dag
Tydens u bespreking het die hele Mariental en omliggende omgewing 'n algehele kragonderbreking gehad vanaf die oggend van 06:00 tot 18:00. Namibië se nasionale kragvoorsiener, NamPower, het die opgradeering en herstelwerk tydens hierdie tye aangebring. Tydens die inboek het die dame by ontvangs al die gaste ingelig oor die kragonderbreking. Ongelukkig was dit buite ons beheer. Die Hotel besit nie 'n kragopwekker soos u aanhaal in u resensie nie, en slegs sonpanele.
Ongelukkig mag ons nie 'n battery bystandstelsel opsit nie as gevolg van Namibiese wetgewing. Die elektrisiteit wat deur die sonpanele opgewek word, word net gedeponeer in die Nasionale elektrisiteit toevoer in. Vir die grootte van die hotel sal dit 'n ingeboude generator moes wees en nie 'n dragbare een nie en dus is daar nie een nie.
Die eienaar self was nie die dag, Sondag, by die hotel nie.
Daar is wel ekstra komberse deur die eienaar se vrou kom aflaai omdat dit 'n ekstra koue dag en aand was.
Daar was 6 personeel lede aan diens, maar ons vra onverskoning vir enige ander ongerief wat u dalk kon ervaar het.
Vriendelike groete

There are better value for money options in Mariental
First we were allocated a room for 2 guests even though we had booked a family room for 4. When I brought this to the reception's attention she told me I can be happy there is an open family room available. The TV picture is of such poor quality that there might as well not have been a TV. Furthermore, the room was clean and tidy and had all basic necessities. Breakfast was particularly good.

Affordable and convenient.
Mariental Hotel was comfortable. On arrival there was no note at reception that we had discussed whether to check in that day. There is not good ventilation in the rooms, in the unit we were in there was only one window. Besides that, the staff is very friendly, the hotel is beautiful and clean and breakfast is delicious.

Right for just overnight
We arrived at 15h30 in the afternoon and our room was not yet clean or ready for us, we had to drive it again and go do something else. The room was newly redone and really very nice, but unfortunately there was a paint smell in the room which was quite overwhelming. There is a coffee station in the room but there was a lot of sugar and no coffee. The lock of the gate through which one gains access by car is falling apart and the gate needs attention. We didn't have breakfast but the restaurant is very tastefully furnished and beautiful.
