Central Hotel Omaruru

Damaraland


This place is the town’s focal point for eating and drinking, and has rondavels (round huts) in the huge garden – they are simple concrete set-ups with small beds, clean linen and good bathrooms. The dining room may well be the only show in town in the evening for dinner. Fortunately, the standard of food is pretty good for a remote pub – there are German favourites plus local game dishes (mains N$80).
