'Forget everything you once thought or believed about backpacking and join us on a new and unique journey in Cape Town'
THE HOSTEL
33 South is a 'Boutique Backpackers' - not only because of our individually themed rooms, percale linen and safe per person (the list continues... free breakfast... free internet! etc) - but also, because we care - and we want you to enjoy your stay in Cape Town. Our staff are here 24 hours a day to help you with questions, queries, tips.
THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
Observatory (Affectionately called 'OBS' by it's locals) is the student neighbourhood of Cape Town. It is characterized by cheap beer and good food topped off with an array of artists and musicians that leave you begging for more.
