Long Street Backpackers

Women return for the social bar and the organised common areas, which stay clean and well maintained. Long Street after dark calls for street smarts.

• The hostel is well organised, including the common areas.
• The rooms were clean and well maintained.
• The staff as friendly and welcoming.
• The hostel has a bar that draws Cape Town's broader backpacker community, making it a meeting point rather than just a place to sleep.
• Both private rooms and dorms were described as clean, comfortable, and well maintained.
• A shared kitchen is available on site.
• Long Street is a busy, well-known strip, but reviewers indicated street smarts are needed in the area after dark.
