Sleep in Cape Town

Before choosing where to stay in Cape Town, you should know that in many of its neighbourhoods you can find humble, family-run guesthouses. This is a cheap choice for Cape Town lodging, and is probably the best way to really understand the South African way of life. If you choose one of these Cape Town accommodations, you're sure to have an unforgettable experience in the city!

The neighborhoods of City Bowl and Gardens are some of the best to start your search for lodging in Cape Town. And of course there's the city center, where you'll be meters away from shops, restaurants, and museums. For more relaxing, beachside places to stay in Cape Town, try the Waterfront or Green Point neighbourhoods.

If you're looking at hotels in Cape Town, expect to pay more. It can be difficult to find really good Cape Town hotel deals, and so you might be better off looking for a guesthouse or backpacker hostel. If money isn't an issue, there are some fine Cape Town luxury hotels. Don't expect great Cape cooking if you're looking for cheap accommodation - breakfast is rarely included in the price. But you should know that almost all lodging in Cape Town offers you a parking space for the duration of your stay.
