Green Elephant Backpackers

Green Elephant is home from home. Warm welcome which put me at ease immediately. The guests were just as friendly ( Must have rubbed off from host and hostess and workers who are available to help all the time.) I noticed the rooms on the ground floor were spacious and very clean. The toilets need hand rails for mobility challenged guest The grounds are arranged with thought and more potted plants would add to the atmosphere. I enjoyed the outdoor seated areas a-plenty. The bar area was my best place as I enjoyed the deep seats , limited drinks menu available. While enjoying the deep-seat with drink in hand the only item I felt was amiss was some good jazz music( my preference) I enjoyed my visit and would surely return as it is very central for transport and as for safety they provide security assistance which I think very thoughtful, they value guest safety. I also noticed motion cameras which added to a feeling of safety. I would volunteer if I was a younger adult because I can just imagine the fun experience it can be.

Great hospitality from the moment I got here. Also, the rooms are cleaned daily and thoroughly, making me feel very comfortable. The outdoor bar has a great hang out area with great service. I would highly recommend the Green Elephant!

Stayed for 2 months and had a great time! The staff is amazing and are very willing to help with any issues that may come up. Good connections for travel excursions too! 100% recommend staying here!

The Green Elephant has been such an amazing place to stay! The staff are all welcoming, helpful, and fun to be around, and they have great connections and recommendations for restaurants, events and more! Plus, the bar is great!

I had a really good experience staying at Green Elephant Backpackers Hostel! The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming, making it easy to meet other travelers. The staff were helpful and made sure everything ran smoothly. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the common areas had a fun, social vibe. The location was great, with easy access to public transport and nearby attractions. They also organized fun activities, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Overall, I had a nice time here and would definitely recommend Green Elephant Backpackers to fellow travelers looking for a budget-friendly and lively place to stay!

Amazing stay! I stayed here for almost 2 months and loved every minute. The place is clean, comfortable, and peaceful, and the staff are super friendly and helpful. I’m from Brazil and would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting!

Loved my stay at the green elephant backpackers! It was SO CLEAN and the beds were actually so comfortable (slept like a baby most of the nights). I stayed here for 2 weeks and everyone at the hostel became like my second family, next time I am in south Africa you know exactly where I will be staying. Plus its super close to the main street, cafes, bars, pubs and thrift shops!!!

I came here along with 10+ other students for a study abroad trip! The owners and staff are AMAZING and I will miss them dearly. They cooked us breakfast every morning, greeted us every chance they had, and did everything in their power to make our stay comfortable. The rooms and clean and comfy and the facilities are nice. It took me a while to figure out how to get the hot water (I promise there is hot water, you just have to turn the handle all the way to the right, wait for it to get hot, and then adjust the temp from here). The pool is super nice as well as the common areas. I had the best time here and you will too!! :)
