The hostel itself is stylishly designed with modern amenities and cozy communal areas where I could relax and socialize with fellow travelers. The rooms were clean, spacious, and thoughtfully decorated, providing a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring the vibrant city.
One of the highlights of my stay was the rooftop terrace, offering breathtaking views of Cape Town and the perfect spot to unwind with a drink while watching the sunset.

Because this was a dormitory provided by the school, I stayed here for a week. It was very nice, clean, and had good service. There were people who helped you carry your suitcases. Be prepared to tip them. They were very enthusiastic about their work. Because I booked the cheapest 12-person mixed dormitory online, when I pushed the door open, most of the people inside were young European boys, hahahaha. I added 80 lei to change to a room with a bathroom for girls that I had stayed in before. Because of the transfer, I only needed to stay for less than 10 hours. There was another reason why I chose this place, because there was a hotel group, and there would be many activities in the group, including free yoga classes, walking, climbing and other activities. Of course, there were also paid day trips, etc. The price was cheap, and it was still a good choice if you could integrate into the group.

Nothing is too much for the staff. Super friendly and all you have to do is ask and your wish is their command. I would happily stay there again.

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Cape Town lies the enchanting A Sunflower Stop Backpackers—a haven that marries comfort with an authentic sense of wanderlust. From the moment you step through the doors, a warm embrace of hospitality envelops you. The hostel's charm resides not just in its impeccably clean rooms or its vibrant decor, but in the genuine sense of community it fosters among travelers from around the globe.
The staff's unwavering dedication to ensuring a memorable stay is truly commendable; their wealth of local knowledge guides you through the city's treasures, unveiling its hidden gems. Whether you're lounging in the cozy common areas or exchanging tales under the African sky in the courtyard, every moment is a celebration of diversity and shared experiences.
A Sunflower Stop Backpackers transcends the ordinary, transforming a stay into an unforgettable journey, leaving you with cherished memories and an undeniable longing to return.

The location is excellent in Cape. It is close to the long street and large supermarkets, so you don't have to walk. There is a bar downstairs. Although it is noisy, it is very safe. The service is very enthusiastic. Everyone is very enthusiastic. It is a good choice for me who is not very good at English. It is also very clean. The girl at the front desk enthusiastically guided me how to play in Zhoushan and Mong Kok. She was not tired of it. I stayed in this hotel for six nights and felt very happy and made a lot of friends. 🥳

Fantastic hostel. Felt like the very best in Southeast Asia. Huge common room (with VHS selection! Hah). Good bar on premises, and just a cool, chill, communal vibe. Don’t expect much else, and it’s a bit of a walk to the beach (like 5 minutes, not much) but for a good surf hostel it’s great.

ZZykov AleksandrI really liked the accommodation. It is located within walking distance from the bus stop and taxi rank. nearby and also within walking distance of the city center, Main Street, observation decks with stunning views and the beach (but the water is terribly cold and you will not be able to swim in any of the beaches in Plettenberg Bay). I was met by a pdministrator named Debbie. She is very friendly and smiling, tried to help in everything (even in things that are not part of her duties). The reception has all the information about the attractions nearby, local taxi numbers (bolt taxi does not work in Plettenberg bay), information about restaurants and their menus, and you can book excursions. the room itself was very clean, including the toilet was in perfect condition. there is a TV and everything that is stated in the ad. on the downside, I spent only one night at the location, but the electricity was turned off twice (both times in the evening) (but there was no light on the entire street, or maybe in the entire city, so it's not the fault of the accommodation). Plettenberg Bay itself is amazing (and safe even after sunset)

SSolo-wandererPili-Pili is a “Great location” on Shedgsfield the beach with single rooms and communal en-suite rooms available with seaviews from the balcony.
Roof terrace gives you a stunning option to enjoy your pre lunch drink.
Proceed downstairs to order and watch your delicious pizza (your choice of toppings) cooked in one of two wood fired ovens.
Staff are all friendly and helpful I strongly recommend staying here.

FFGTRTDI didn't like that the room didn't have a bathroom. The bathroom is to be shared. For a little extra, you can have a bathroom and better location at 82 on Regent. Motown is okay if you enjoy sharing bathrooms with strangers. Due to the concerts at the time in Cape Town, most places were sold out which is how we landed up at Motown.
