Obelix Guesthouse Lüderitz
Obelix Guesthouse Lüderitz offers practical bed-and-breakfast accommodation on Old Bay Road. Its location is convenient for travellers entering town and for exploring the historic centre, waterfront and surrounding desert coast.
The atmosphere is informal and suited to couples, families, groups and business travellers. The Lüderitz Town Council provides an overview of local history and attractions.
Obelix is a modest guesthouse rather than a full-service hotel. Its strength is a straightforward overnight stay with breakfast, parking and practical in-room amenities. The courtyard-style arrangement keeps most rooms close to the reception and dining areas, which can help families and small groups stay together.
Room choices at this Lüderitz guesthouse
The guesthouse currently lists 16 rooms across twin, double, family and budget categories. Family rooms provide more space for adults travelling with children, while the budget room offers a simpler option. We will confirm the best available layout for your party.
Rooms have an en-suite bathroom, television, Wi-Fi, fridge and tea-and-coffee station. Daily housekeeping is provided. Selected rooms and access routes are suitable for guests with limited mobility, but specific requirements should be discussed before booking.
The current room mix includes eight twin rooms, three doubles, five family rooms and a budget room. Family layouts vary: some combine a double bed with bunks, while larger options can sleep additional guests. Confirm the actual bed plan rather than relying only on the category name.
Facilities at Obelix Guesthouse
Breakfast is included with most room rates. Lunch or dinner may be arranged on request, and an indoor barbecue area can be available for groups or special functions. Confirm meal arrangements in advance.
Secure on-site parking with overnight security is provided. Laundry service is available for an additional charge, which can be useful on longer self-drive journeys.
Selected satellite television channels are available in the rooms. The fridge is useful for drinks and road-trip provisions, while the coffee station supports early departures. Wi-Fi is included, although coastal connectivity can be less consistent than in larger cities. Daily cleaning is part of the stay.
Exploring Lüderitz from the guesthouse
Local highlights include the colourful historic buildings, coastal viewpoints and the nearby ghost town of Kolmanskop. Boat trips, lagoon excursions and drives towards Diaz Point can also be considered, subject to weather and operating schedules.
Lüderitz is known for cool Atlantic conditions, even when inland Namibia is warm. Pack a windproof layer for outings.
The covered dining lapa can also accommodate groups and pre-arranged functions. Home-style lunch and dinner are offered only by prior request, so they should not be assumed for a same-day arrival. The indoor barbecue facility is similarly subject to arrangement and group requirements.
Planning family accommodation in Lüderitz
Children are welcome. Cots, extra beds and child charges depend on age, room type and availability, so include every guest’s age in your enquiry. Check-in and meal times should also be confirmed if you expect a late arrival.

Check-in is generally available from early afternoon and check-out is in the morning. One extra bed may be possible in a room, and cots are limited. The property describes itself as wheelchair friendly, but guests should specify doorway, shower and parking needs so the correct room can be confirmed.
