The loneliest hotel in the world - Sonop Zannier, Namibia

🏨Hotel: Zannier Sonop 【Address】Sonop, Namibia 🍎Zannier Hotels 【Once ranked first in the "Outdoor" category in the "Best Sleeping Hotel" selection by the British National Geographic magazine, although it is called a hotel, it is actually a holiday camp located in the Great Namib Desert in southwestern Africa. It is a work of the Belgian boutique hotel brand Zannier Hotels. [Sonop is located in southern Namibia, near the desert of the Sossusvlei Dunes which were formed more than 80 million years ago. Located in a vast nature reserve in southern Namibia, it is surrounded by huge rocks. The desert with no signs of development and the strange boulders scattered in it make people feel like they are on an alien planet. 🌄Sonop means "sunrise" in Afrikaans. Living here, you can indeed see the spectacular sunrise and sunset in the desert. 🪨Its location is rare. Wilderness and rocks become part of the hotel, with only 10 tent rooms spread across 13,800 acres of private territory. ⛺️ 【The design of the hotel exudes a retro and luxurious atmosphere. Every piece of furniture seems to have been moved out of a museum, as if you have lived in the 1920s described by Agatha. 🚪In the guest rooms, there is less finely polished luxury, and instead there are mahogany chairs and antique desks bought from British flea markets, paired with local Namibian fabrics and artworks. This is the aesthetic in the eyes of the designer. 🛁The guest room reveals the designer's careful planning. The bathtub occupies the best view position, and the wide view on both sides generously brings in the natural landscape. 🌄Watch the beautiful sunset by the open-air swimming pool, sit in the lobby and daydream, while African oryxes stroll leisurely not far away. Time seems to stand still in this peaceful and beautiful moment. 🐎In addition to enjoying the quiet time in the hotel, Sonop also provides a series of outdoor activities, including horse riding, sunrise and sunset Safari, e-bike, outdoor pool movie, etc.
