Centrally located just up from trendy Kloof street, 5 minutes walk from vibrant Long street , 5 minutes by taxi from the Waterfront and Table Mountain Cableway and within easy reach of Cape Town's famous beaches.

Family friendly, we are generally considered to be one of the quieter hostels in Cape Town.

Some of the rooms have good views of Table Mountain. We also provide comprehensive information, arrange airport shuttle, inexpensive car hire and tours.
