Bohemian Lofts Backpackers

We are located at the centre of everything that is happening in Lower Main Road Observatory. Yet, we are just outside the late night pub district.

Our building - a former museum of contemporary art - is stunning. You will love its character, personality, looks and, yes, also it s functionality. Come experience our perfect-for-sunrise-watching and perfect-for-people-watching balcony: There are few streets as interesting as Lower Main Road. And then you may also be fascinated by some of our other building quirks such as our 30 feet high bathroom skylight - Too many to mention.

Observatory is the place where the different sides of Cape Town's personality all combine into one bohemian whole: Here you will find people of all descriptions. Everyone is welcome.

There is never the slightest chance of a corporate sameness in Obs.The shops, restaurants (and accomodation!) are all individual, creative, cool, quirky, fascinating and non-conformist.

Obs is also close to the University of Cape Town, the Medical School and Groote Schuur Hospital. From here you can get to the False Bay beaches, the West Coast beaches, the centre of Cape Town, the Cape Flats and much more. It is a perfect home base for a traveller, a student, an intern, a medical professional or an outreach volunteer. We're also well positioned for accomodation for big sporting events such as the Cape Argus Pick n Pay Cyle Tour or the Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon.
