Let’s visit South Africa

Located at the foot of Table Mountain, Ashanti Lodge Gardens is your gateway to Cape Town
 
Ashanti was one of the first backpacker hostels in South Africa when we opened our doors 25 years ago. Since then we have strived to supply travellers with excellent accommodation and helpful travel advice.
 
 
We are based in the trendy inner-city suburb of Gardens, within walking distance to the city centre. The gorgeous Victorian mansion is situated just a few steps away from the famous Kloof Street with all its restaurants and bars, as well as Long Street, the nightlife spot in Cape Town. 
 
We offer budget accommodations in dormitories, singles, doubles and twin rooms with shared or en-suite bathroom facilities available. The rooms are clean and comfortable and you will find individual reading lights, international plug points and personal safes. Everything to make your stay as relaxed and as enjoyable as possible. 
 
 
We also advise our guest about traveling through Africa, and last year we opened Ashanti Travel Online. Here you can book day tours, budget safaris, overland safaris and adventure tours throughout southern and eastern Africa. We can also help you with travel insurance, flights and car hire, basically everything you need for the perfect trip.
 
 
Chill next to our awesome pool, join a party or drink an amazing cocktail in our legendary Kumasi Café/Bar. Enjoy a delicious braai with all your new friends and join weekly pool or beer pong competitions.  
 
Come to Cape Town to experience Ashanti Lodge Gardens for yourself. We look forward to welcome you here.
