Centrally located, Hotel Heinitzburg, a member of Relais & Chateaux, is a two-minute drive from the city center. Commissioned by Count von Schwerin for his fiancée, Margarethe von Heinitz in 1914, Heinitzburg is now an enchanting castle hotel overlooking Windhoek. Hotel Heinitzburg combines 19th century European charm with modern comforts. Completed in 1996 in the style of the old castle, the hotel wing has 17 spacious, generously appointed en suite rooms. What makes Heinitzburg special is the elegant design, from four poster beds and Italian ceramic tiles to custom fittings and specially created hand-made wood furnishings. The Raith family has long been associated with the tradition of excellence hospitality and cuisine.
No better time, than the turn of the century, to present the new A la Carte restaurant: “ Leo’s at the castle”. Overlooking the capital’s skyline, the spellbinding combination of magnificent views and culinary creations out of this world, meticulously prepared for you, is proof, that only the stars are the limit and dreams do come true. Finally, complemented by an ancient wine cellar, cast out of the mountain’s rock and filled with hand-picked vintage treasures, paying lasting tribute to the legends of South Africa’s wine history, the monument’s towers are proudly rising to the sky honoring those who are most important: their guests.
