On the Grid : The Backpack

"Too adventurous for a hotel but too modest for AirBnB? Why not try a backpacker’s lodge designed for young folks, BY young folks! The Backpack in the heart of Cape Town has a youthfully laid out premises, with tonnes of communal areas to meet the people who reside in the Mother City. The Backpack boasts great amenities, a stunning location, free Wi-Fi and breakfasts all with a lekker price tag. If you want a decent place to stay that will feed your desire for fun and fresh company while you go about gallivanting in the Western Cape, why not do it in style. The Backpackers aims to bring people from all walks of life together and spark social change, exposing you to the full spectrum of humanity while you make friends along the way. Check them out and see for yourself!" - Yellow Door Collective

The 4 Best Hostels in Cape Town (Updated 2025)

"Located near the trendy Kloof Street and its popular bars and restaurants, this fun, social hostel has a bar that hosts late-night parties and live music on weekends; I especially like that the hostel organizes events like paint-and-sip nights and braais and runs a hostel WhatsApp group that makes it easy to meet people. There's an outdoor pool and garden for lounging, dorm beds with thick mattresses, curtains, outlets and lights, and the highlight for me was the excellent pressurized rain shower." - Matthew Kepnes

The hostel is really made to meet new people. There’s a bar that works the entire day and they have a bbq every week and always have fun activities. There’s a pool and great location! The staff at the bar are so so so friendly, I could’ve stayed just for them! One point is just the reception during the day can be quite rude which gives a bad first impression but other than that, all good!

My family and I had a wonderful stay. The property is beautiful, the team couldn’t have been friendlier, and the prices are great. We also loved that our visit supports environmental projects. We’d happily book again.

Fantastic hostel in a nice spot, all the staff that worked here were wonderful and a great bunch of people to help run the place. Rooms were clean and beds were comfy enough, large garden area to relax and free continental breakfast 🙂

They will charge you the full amount that you’re supposed to pay at the counter even before you arrive at the hostel. also no excursion or organized visits proposed and reception… surprising in such a vibrant city as Cape Town

I was genuinely impressed by the service. It was a completely stress-free experience. Even when I mistakenly booked the wrong date, they corrected it quickly and effortlessly—no hassle at all. INCLUDING - Breakfast was nice

The perfect place for a backpacker I highly recommend this place. Specially if you are a working digital nomad who’s working remote and need a good Wi-Fi with a very good space for work. Their breakfast is very rich. It’s a very good place. Very good vibes a huge place with massive areas I like the energy that they have. The staff are so cool and always helping you. You feel family and home.

This is the place. No question about it. Amazing staff. Great room and beds. Awesome breakfast and bar area. Great pool with a nice view of table mountain and lions head. Met some awesome people and was the best experience. When I return to Cape Town, I will definitely stay here again!
