Good location and nice facilities that made it feel more like a hotel than a hostel even in a shared dorm room.

This is the best hostel in the world and I have been everywhere. First the welcome, the staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. Next the facilities, the room has on suite shower 4 beds, but the kitchen facilities have everything. Each evening there is an activity from games night to movie night. The location is perfect, plenty of bars from the quiet local pub to the more lively music scene. Never before have I wanted to tell the staff all about my day but they made me feel so at home

This hostel has really friendly and helpful staff, and a good central location. However, we were in Cape Town during a heat wave and the dorms were unbearably hot with no AC. Also the street outside is very noisy, but if you want a party hostel then this is a good location for bars etc

Never At Home is the best hostel in Cape Town and the Kloof Street location is top tier vibes. The staff is amazing; everyone from the beautiful, friendly, and funniest Nicky at the front desk to the insanely fun, adventurous, and amazing tour guide Phil. I’ll always stay at Never At Home when I’m in Cape Town and I put that on my last name!!!

Very good location, cool offers/tours organized by the Hostel. The staff was OK but not very nice/helpful. Other than that i loved the stay!

Good location, friendly staff and very clean. However, the bathrooms smelled bad, it was very noisy especially in the mornings and there was no hot water in two bathrooms. I had to go to another floor to shower. Overall okay, but I personally wouldn’t stay here again.

Good enough hostel in great location. I was only missing curtains at the bed and found the offered tours too expensive. Be aware that the hostel hosts language school students, who come in groups which made it somewhat difficult to meet others.

Fica numa rua movimentada com várias opções de bares, restaurantes e supermercados. Entretanto, o quarto acaba sendo barulhento por isso. Meu quarto não tinha ar condicionado e batia sol da tarde muito quente.

Beautiful location, kind people and very convenient. Also for someone on a work trip. Just only ventilator and no AC, so rooms can get very hot in summer.

Really lovely staff and place. A lot of thought has gone into the activities available. it's a good hotel alternative too for a more fun stay with very good private rooms

It was a nice hostel with a great terrace. The kitchen had 3 stove tops but at two of them just one plate was working so for such a big hostel it is a somewhat small kitchen. The activities a very great to get to know new people and start in the day.

In total I spent 5 nights here and had a blast! The hostel had the perfect location to discover the city and nearby cafés and pubs by foot. The volunteers made everyone feel very welcome and tried to include everyone into the activities. Through various hostel activities, such as hiking, braai, yoga etc. it was very easy to meet people from all over the world and share travel stories! Would definitely book again 🤗
