Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Years ago, I found a fantastic place in Dublin which I gave strong recommendations. Now it is that well known, I can never get in there!! And I think its going to be the same with Hermanus Backpackers. So being selfish, I wouldn't recommend this hostel.. GO AND FIND SOMEWHERE ELSE, SO THAT I CAN STAY HERE AGAIN LOL.

    It was the best hostel I've ever booked. Amazing showers and toilets. Super clean and modern. Little kitchenette in the room with kettle, glasses, plates etc. Great location as it is super central. Very close to the ocean and cliff trail. The little breakfast was ok, cereal toast and Marmelade.
