Amazing views at the lodge, and amazing activities. We went on the rhino tracking activity and it was incredible: we saw a rhino mom and her baby, and we actually followed them on foot for a little while. We also loved the guided walk & sundowner drive, which both had unbelievable views. Even sitting on the patio at the lodge, the views were stunning. Highly recommend this place. Only thing to be aware of is that the internet doesn’t work in the individual rooms, only at the main lodge (and even there it’s spotty). However, with such views you don’t need internet!

Clearly overrated accommodation.
Only the view is very good.
Otherwise:
Staff partly overworked and mostly not very helpful and friendly.
Food mediocre.
Room simple, bathroom (shower head, drain) very dirty, cheapest sanitary equipment.
All in all, at best recommended as a stopover if you can't find anything else.

The most amazing view of the valley! Amazing food! Amazing service! Pro or con depending on what type of traveler you are: extremely limited wifi and power plugs, a very steep ascent to get to the property (we had a 4WD but if you don’t they will help you get to the lodge)

This is an excellent place to rest and recuperate between etosha and skeleton coast park. The view is amazing. The staff is friendly and very helpful. This is also an initiative by an npo so you are helping to local community by staying here as well.
The room is beautiful, cozy and just fantastic! No power outlet in the room (because the lodge is next to the cliff!) But you can charge your electronics at the reception.
The check in was a positive experience. Theres transfer up the steep slope to the lodge from the parking lot. They have welcome drink and the staff will walk you through the place. Free breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner come with the charge makes it super worth it!
The staff will also sing and dance to welcome you during dinner. Theres a communal staff tip box at reception so you dont have to tip everyone separately.
We highly recommend this place and will definitely come back if we go to Namibia again!

Amazing hotel with fantastic view and nice service! It’s very remote but if you’re not having a problem with the drive it’s worth the effort!!

We stayed here for 2 nights and it was amazing. The pictures don't do the lodge justice. It's in a stunning location and the staff are awesome. They even sang for us one night. The guided walks, tracking and drives were amazing and we wish we had stayed for 3 nights rather than 2. The food was good, and the WiFi was patchy (restricted to 150mb per session). We stayed in the family room which was fantastic value for 4 people, however, it's worth noting that the two bedrooms and bathroom are open ceiling, so they have no privacy (hence family).

We booked a room for 3 adults, but got a very small double room with a extra bed , a very small one, more like a kids bed and no mosquitoe net for the extra bed.
The food was very simple. The view was lovely.

We spend 2 nights st Grootberg. The location of the lodge is breathtaking, the staff super and the services are great too. Internet could be better but, hey, it is in the Namibian hinterland!

Grootberg lodge was our 2 nights' stop from two long days of driving. However, we spent two sleepless nights fighting against mosquitoes....! No matter how much I could spray myself with repellent, they kept coming back biting and flying by my ears! It was an absolute nightmare. All they needed was a mosquito net, like all the other places where we stayed, much eco friendly than the spray repellent.
