About
A luxury hostel in Green Point that has earned its category distinction — all rooms renovated and styled by interior decorators, every bathroom en-suite, rooms serviced daily with fresh linen and towels. The Girls' Dorm is 3 beds, en-suite, with Smart TV, fan, lockers, privacy curtains, hairdryer and conditioner — a specification most boutique hotels don't bother with. The mixed dorm runs 3 beds on a single and a bunk configuration, also en-suite. Private rooms have balconies and courtyard views. Two fully equipped guest kitchens, a pool and braai terrace, a library, games room, and free continental breakfast. The location is the other argument: 5 minutes' walk to the Waterfront, 5 minutes to the Sea Point Promenade, Giovanni's deli next door.
Crucially for Cape Town: The BIG has an inverter, meaning load shedding doesn't affect the property — power, gates, and security remain operational. Free SIM cards available at reception (top up with airtime, ready to use).
Not a party hostel; quiet, friendly, staff-organised activities without pressure.
