Neuchâtel, Switzerland

This is a warm old colonial house with original decoration. Our large room (Queen) was under the roof and there was plenty of room to settle in. The bathroom was very large too. Nice patio for a drink in the sun. 

The staff was very friendly. Willow (I'm not sure how to spell it) greeted us with a smile and even cleaned our sanded suitcases after nearly 300km of trail. Then her colleague, equally smiling, offered us a refreshing drink and showed us around the place.

As this is an old house, there is no sound and peripheral insulation. So the nights are rather cool and you can hear the noise from the street (relatively quiet) as well as the dining room. 

Breakfast served at the table and well presented.

Well placed to tour the old buildings and 10 minutes walk from the mole.

Secure parking.

We had a really good stay at Villa Margherita. This is a really unique place to stay. The house itself has a lovely atmosphere and there are relaxing gardens outside. The breakfasts are amazing with lots of choice and with a special twist on "afternoon tea".
Book now you won't regret it.

Small jewel in the heart of Swakopmund, it has large and comfortable rooms furnished with taste and elegance. Huge bathroom equipped with every accessory (Italians will appreciate the bidet). Guests have access to secure private parking, an outdoor patio where they can relax and a refined and welcoming restaurant. Good breakfast, varied and plentiful. Very kind, helpful and smiling staff.

This guest house impresses with its colonial charm (built around 1913) and with its super friendly, courteous staff, especially Joyce, who welcomed us so warmly.
The rooms (we had a family room = suite with two bedrooms and a double room) are more than spacious and well maintained. The beds are very comfortable and the furnishings are of a very high standard.
The whole house exudes a charm that makes you feel immediately welcome and at home.
The breakfast is simply great, the presentation, the loving preparation of the dishes and the great service is simply TOP. The whole family felt very well looked after and cared for.
Many thanks to the entire team at Villa Margarita. In this house

Pension with few rooms in a German colonial house in Swakopmund. The staff is very attentive and the food very good. Despite the location, our room did not have a real heating system except for a small additional heating that did not allow to heat the huge room of our room (and temperatures are cool at night in Swakopmund in winter!). Quality massage service.

On our self-drive safari we stayed two nights at the "Nest", virtually a two-bedroom apartment with kitchenette and front garden within the Villa M. complex. The entire property with several buildings is very well and lovingly maintained and designed. Secured parking is included. Guests are provided with remote controls to open and close the driveways.
The staff was very friendly and devoted, the breakfast rich and varied, some components presented on an étagère.
Sleep quality very good, bathroom modern. Everything very clean.
Villa M. is practically located in the middle of the historic German city centre. During the day, the entire town can be walked. At least in the evening, you shouldn't do this alone.

Disappointed as we had higher expectations. Our room was on the 1st floor and coming in I noticed some ants in the bathroom. The next morning they were all over the cupboard doors next to our bed. The staff weren’t able to re-room us, but they did come to wipe away the affected areas which was a temporary measure as they came back the next day. I also suffered from insect bites in the room, which didn’t even happen at a single lodge we stayed in Namibia. WiFi is also intermittent. On the plus side, The staff are very friendly and helpful and breakfast is good, however the owners need to invest in better maintenance of the property and guest comfort!

Wonderful place, huge apartment that's very clean and a host Judith who will do anything to help you. Breakfast was delicious with homemade orange jam, croissants, rolls, fruit kebabs, yoghurt and a choice of omelette or French toast to order.
It has a lovely garden area. I totally recommend this place as the staff are fantastic, very friendly and so welcoming.

If you want to feel like your favorite grandmother again, Villa Margherita is the place to be. A beautiful old house with a great, unique decor and a team that exudes pure love - just fantastic. The Etageren breakfast with daily changing, homemade ingredients is so delicious that you want to come back for it alone. We really enjoyed the pampering and felt very comfortable in this warm, loving ambience.

Hotel located in a very beautiful, very well renovated house. The staff took great care.
We stayed in the "Queen" room, which was very spacious, comfortable and clean.
A beautiful, quiet garden is available to relax and unwind after the hours of driving to get here. The city center is just a stone's throw away.
Excellent breakfast. Note that we had to leave early one morning and the manager still prepared a great breakfast for us.
