Ashanti Lodge and Travel Centre is stylishly housed by an Afro-Victorian mansion, complete with a pool and more spacious balconies, palm-fringed sundecks and the best mountain views that you could possibly hope for.
Set in chilled parkland, but within walking distance of the city centre, we offer all accommodation options, including private rooms with en suite bathrooms in our Guest House around the corner. Cater for yourselves in our stylishly renovated well-equipped kitchen, or fill up on delicious food (and cocktails) at our legendary sociable Kumasi Bar. Ashanti Lodge is a relaxed, more-ish comfort zone, known for its outstanding security, friendly staff and our buzzing, on-the-case Travel Centre, who'll sort out any activities required, including overland safaris.

Customer Reviews Cape Town - Ashanti Lodge
| 06 Apr 2013 Nina, Canada | 73% | |
| It is okay for the price. I was in a single room (or twin for two people). It was pretty noisy as it was next to the pool. Not particularly nice, but was okay. If I was to stay for just a couple of days, I would rather get a hotel room or a bed and breakfast. | ||

| I really liked the ambiance at this hostel - as well as the patios and places to meet other people. So roomy. Staff were also great. | ||

| An increased amount of time for internet will be important, as just 1 hour voucher is nothing. Why can't it be free wi-fi? | ||
