A Victorian mansion style establishment hosts the Ashanti Lodge Backpackers. Located close to the foot of Table Mountain, the wooden sun deck and the garden of the hostel offer views of the landscape.
Accommodations include bright dormitory rooms and private rooms. Some features normal bed or iron wrought bunk beds. All have a decor with designer touch.
Communal areas of the Ashanti Lodge Backpackers include an outdoor swimming pool, a travel center, and the Kumasi Café with billiard. Reception is open from 8 to 5, but live-in staff always available in to assist with after hours enquiries and/or check-ins.
Free Hi-speed wifi available everywhere and computer available free of charge.
Breakfast not included in room-only rate, but a la carte available in the Kumasi Cafe.
Longstreet with various restaurants, day and nightlife is about a 10 minute walk away.
This room comes with private basin and shared bathroom. Some rooms are situated around the outdoor swimming pool.
Most of these rooms are situated in the courtyard around the pool– perfect for an early morning wake up dip. The bathrooms are down the passage, but there are basins in the room for brushing of teeth and hair. A double room has a standard double bed and a twin room has two single beds… best suited for those not cuddling up at night😊. Great backpacker prices on these rooms to be part of the action.
This is the only en-suite room we have in the main building and it is nestled away in our tranquil garden under the palm trees. It has a king size bed, full-service satellite TV, a digital safe, block-out floor-length curtains, strong wifi and tea/making facilities in the room and, of course, an en-suite shower room. It has its own little private outside area to have your morning coffee – and watch the city wildlife of squirrels and birds drink from water feature in the garden.
The twin room provides a safe deposit box and a carpeted floor, as well as a shared bathroom featuring a shower. The twin room features heating. The unit offers 2 beds.
Converted from dormitory rooms these massive deluxe rooms are spacious and comfortable. The rooms have high ceilings which increase the sense of space and consist of a king size bed with a single bunk on top so they are suitable for couples, friends, or families. Each room also has a desk and chair, so they lend themselves to digital nomads who have work to do. With a digital safe, cupboard, reading light and a basin in the room these are now our most popular rooms.
