Very helpful staff, easy to book day trips, bar with good food at a good price!
One thing to note - rooms cold in Spring/early summer

We stayed here for two weeks and found it to be the best hostel we have stayed in yet. The staff were friendly and very helpful with booking trips. The rooms were clean and linen and towels changed every 2/3 days. The only thing which could be improved would be heating in the rooms. We sometimes found it quite chilly.
The location is good and central and is only a short walk to restraunts and bars.
The bar served a good selection of food and drink and it had a lovely cosy atmosphere. It was a great place to meet people.
We stayed there in September and would highly recomend this hostel.

The Cafe/bar is full of variety and the staff is very accommodating and more than willing to make an effort to be helpful. The rooms and beds are clean and extremely comfortable.

The Backpack is THE place to stay when in Cape Town. Not only did I get to wake up the most incredible view of Table Mountain every day, I got to meet really nice people from all over the world. I arrived alone (and scared I will be alone for the whole duration of my trip here) but within one hour I had made some really good friends and 30 minutes later I was on Table Mountain with them. The staff are all wonderful and incredibly in tune with how to make the hostel a warm, friendly place by putting on drum nights and the weekly braais - which are not to miss at all!
