With Cape Town joining cities like New York, Monaco and London, as one of the most popular cities in the world, you will not be surprised the city offers you a wide variety of accommodation.

Where to stay in Cape Town
Deciding on where to stay is choosing from one of the many diverse environments in Cape Town. You can stay close to the restaurants and nightlife, have a view of one of the beautiful beaches, table mountain, lion’s head or the vineyards, to name but a few.

In the City Bowl, Budget hotels, backpackers, B&B's and boutique hotels spread out from the centre onto the slopes of Table Mountain. There you'll find quiet suburban areas like Oranjezicht, Tamboerskloof and trendy Gardens.
On the Atlantic seabord, the scenery changes every five hundred meters with the trendy and gay Green Point , luxurious hotels in the Waterfront, to the upmarket beach life of Bantry Bay, Clifton, Camps Bay.
Just south west of Cape Town on the Atlantic, the quiet bay of Llandudno and the ‘republic’ of Hout Bay you’ll find good accommodation as well, often with stunning views of the sea or mountains. On the other side of the mountain Constantia offers accommodation near the oldest winelands in Cape Town.

Where to stay in the Surroundings of Cape Town
The Cape Peninsula, south of Cape Town, offers quaint villages and a "green" environment to stay for a few days to experience birdlife and walks along the coast, to surf or to enjoy the silence.
When feeling like feasting on wine and some good food, the Winelands of the Western Cape, you may want to spend the night there as well. Opt for a stay at one of the B&B’s, a self catering cottages on one of the Wine-estates. When the sun rises the next morning, the sky, the view of the vineyards, the valley and the impressive mountains makes you feel like waking up in your own estate.
