Felt very much at home, no reason to complain.

Mind-blowing central location, jaw-dropping friendly staff, super awesome atmosphere, and a great place to meet new people!

exceeded expectations during this long stay, friendly staff, great atmosphere, perfect location on Long Street

thin walls, noisy in the mornings

I had a blast at this backpackers! Met awesome people in the courtyard and played beer pong every evening. The best part? Being quiet after midnight so I could get some beauty sleep.

Who needs lights and clean bathrooms in a dorm, right? Just an unforgettable experience.

The staff treated us like family, always responding instantly to our needs and making sure we felt safe and cared for. the location in the middle of the city was so convenient for exploring, with lively Long Street right outside and peaceful Loop Street just above. the atmosphere was amazing, with giant trees creating a jungle vibe, and the traditional breakfast porridge was a favorite. Our room was snug and pleasant, with a lovely wooden floor and a warm touch from the terracotta tiles in the open-layout bathroom. We enjoyed every moment at Long Street Backpackers and will definitely be back!

Nothing, it's perfect! 😊

I had an amazing stay at this awesome hostel in the heart of downtown! The value for money was excellent, with comfortable dorms, nice showers, and great room facilities. The location couldn't be better, everything was so close and convenient. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always making sure I had a fantastic stay. The bar and balconies were perfect for chilling out and meeting new people from all over the world. I can't recommend this place enough!

The food for breakfast could have been better.

Centrally located in CBD district. Close to bars and malls. Friendly staff. Great place to meet new people.

The location is perfect, easily accessible and in the heart of the city. The staff were genuine, considerate, and provided excellent service. The communal areas, like the courtyard and bar, had a friendly and cozy vibe. I especially loved the beautiful giant trees in pots that created a lovely jungle atmosphere. The rooms were small but cozy, with a pleasant wooden floor. The open layout of the bathroom with terracotta tiles was a warm touch. a great stay with attentive staff and a great location.

Strongly recommend this hotel.

Great location in the heart of the city, close to all the action and attractions. Friendly and helpful staff who made my stay enjoyable and comfortable. - Free WiFi that actually connects, a huge bonus for staying connected. - Met interesting and diverse people, creating a vibrant and social atmosphere.

No air conditioning in the rooms, would have been nice to have in the hot weather. No free beer, but hey, can't complain too much about that!

We stayed at a centrally located hostel in Cape Town that allowed us to check in early. the friendly staff provided a warm welcome and the wifi was good. the hostel had a well-stocked bar, fully functional kitchen, and a great social space. We particularly enjoyed the lovely courtyard, where we met and chatted with other travelers. One of the highlights of our stay was the barbecue organized by the hostel on the day we arrived. We brought our own meat and veggies, and the staff cooked it for us while we enjoyed the fire and had a memorable dinner. A truly fantastic experience!

There was nothing I didn't like. 😊

I recently stayed at Long Street Backpackers in Cape Town for a few nights and had a fantastic experience. The hostel strikes the perfect balance between being a social place without being too intense of a party scene. It's conveniently located on Long Street, but once inside, it feels like a peaceful oasis. The bar closes at a reasonable hour, ensuring a good night's sleep. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. They were always ready to assist and provided helpful information about the area. The hostel also organizes activities, allowing guests to interact with people from all over the world. it was the best hostel I stayed at in Cape Town and I would definitely choose to stay here again.

I do recommend this hostel.

Great location, vibrant atmosphere, helpful staff , good price/quality ratio, fast and free internet, well-equipped kitchen.

Nothing for me.

We had an incredible experience at Long Street Backpackers. the moment we arrived, we were greeted by friendly staff and a vibrant atmosphere. the bar was a great place to mingle with other travelers and enjoy the diverse mix of nationalities. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the check-in process was quick and easy. We loved waking up to the sound of rain and the beautiful view of the lush green surroundings. the location was perfect, with bars, restaurants, and clubs just steps away from the hostel. the spacious kitchen and outdoor space were added bonuses. we highly recommend Long Street Backpackers for a memorable stay.

Nothing 🙌

This hostel had the best atmosphere for a social but not too wild party scene. It was located in a central area within walking distance to historic sites and great shopping. I also enjoyed the helpful and friendly staff who made my stay extra enjoyable.

The facilities were in need of some upgrading, with old toilets and bathrooms, and rooms that were not well structured for privacy. The price was also a bit high compared to what was offered.

This budget-friendly hostel is conveniently located near major attractions, making it easy to explore the city center, visit the beach, and shop in the area. The rooms are comfortable with nice beds and showers, and the staff is friendly and helpful. You can enjoy breakfast or dinner on the two balconies, and there are shops below the building where you can find affordable African souvenirs and delicious Indian food.

One aspect that could be improved is the lack of privacy in some of the rooms, as they don't have their own showers and toilets.
