Perfect place for a stay in Cape Town.


90%

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, great cable TV with loads of channels, good wifi , plenty of amenities so you won't be bored at all. Tim and James were very helpful and pleasant throughout. Sometimes breakfast in the morning can be a nightmare as one of the housekeepers wearing glasses watches while you have breakfast, waiting for you to do something she considers a mistake, and get pissed off if you didn't do things right like washing dishes in the correct sink etc! Still, highly recommended!

Clean, safe, good location (10min on foot from waterfront), spacious dorms, good beds, nice staff, lots to do (movie nights, ping pong, bar), none the less not a party hostel. Showers/toilets for dorms could have a bit more privacy but are fine all in all (hot water, clean, spacious).

The breakfast comes a bit late, you would miss it forever if you have to get up early

I had the most amazing time at Atlantic Point! It´s one of the best hostels I stayed in! Confy beds, good showers, well-located, great atmosphere and a very friendly and helpful staff - especially Lucia, the Portuguese girl. The owners are very kind too and they make a delicious braai. I met tons of awesome people there and had lots of fun. Would definitely reccomend this hostel.

The staff was very accomodating and the hostel offered many things during the week. The hostel is a 15min walk from the waterfront, one of the main attractions of Cape Town, from which the Citysightseeing tour Bus" is leaving as well. 10 minuts from the hostel is also a big Spar which will sort you out with all the food you might need. :)

Very clean and well located hostel, had a nice stay and met very cool people as well. Breakfast was ok and definitely appreciated the balcony to chill and the bar to have a few drinks before taking off.

Very well located. Easy to walk to the Waterfront. They didn't give me a lot of information unless I asked for it though. Clean place. Very good breakfast. Wi-fi was not always working well but there was a way to get online anyway. Calm place.

A clean, and secure hostel very close to the V&A Waterfront. Would recommend it to young and social people for its college-ish atmosphere.

Really nice place with good services, too bad didn't have much time to spend in the hostel itself.
