Property Description

If you need the base that is truly in the middle of the very best Mother City and it's surrounds are famous for; the perfect spot from which you can explore and experience it all, Abantu is the ideal place for you.

Looking at this petite, elegantly restored Victorian gem, you wouldn’t guess that she’s been gracing one of South Africa’s liveliest and safest streets since dusty 1898. Most of her double and dormitory rooms have their own bathrooms and an access to a magnificent, sun splashed balcony, overlooking the Long and Leeuwen Streets. All dormitory rooms are equipped with security lockers. There is also a self catering kitchen, fully equipped Bar with the pool table area, as well as a travel desk.

In addition to renowned Long Street nightlife which
begins right at our doorstep (with myriad of bars, restaurants and clubs rubbing shoulders with each other); 7 museums, more than 20 Provincial Heritage Sites (including several historical cathedrals, churches, mosques and a synagogue), multitude of antique shops, various art galleries, 1 outdoor and 2 indoors curios markets, Turkish Baths (with sauna, massage & swimming facilities), 2 movies theatres, City Bowl’s biggest park, several banks & ATMs, post office, Cape Town’s main bus, mini-bus and train station, and so much more can be found within 10 minutes of walking distance from your bed.

Table Mountain cable car, V&A Waterfront (Aquarium,
Robben Island ferry, etc.), and Cape Town’s beaches are all easily accessible via affordable backpackers shuttle service to whom we have a direct, toll-free line.

Our uber helpful staff will gladly assist you in planning
your stay and connecting all the dots.

We can organize you an airport pick-up or a drop-off, help you hire a car, reveal to you how to see most of the city highlights in a single day for only R100 or let you know how to get to world's only land based beaches where you can go for a stroll accompanied by curious little creatures called Jackass Penguins...

For the truly adventurous we can arrange a date with a
Great White Shark (from the safety of the steel cage),
unveil where you can do the world's highest commercial bungee jump or a abseil, show you how to take some of the most breathtaking photos while falling out of a airplane (attached to a parachute) or while paragliding off 669 meters tall city landmark and landing in the middle of Cape Town's most popular beaches...
