Urban Hive Backpackers
Heritage balconies with a Table Mountain backdrop
A Victorian heritage building on Long Street with two street-facing balconies looking toward Table Mountain, offering single, twin, double and dorm rooms, a communal kitchen, a billiard room and a TV lounge.
Urban Hive occupies a Victorian-era building on Long Street, and the two balconies are the reason to stay: a 180-degree street view with Table Mountain behind it, open to anyone with a drink from the downstairs bar. Rooms run from single and twin to double and various dorm configurations, all sharing bathrooms on each floor, with sheets and towels available on request. The communal kitchen has a large double-story fridge for guests cooking on a budget, and a billiard room plus TV lounge cover the indoor downtime. Company's Garden is five minutes away on foot and Greenmarket Square 550 metres, both close enough to fold into an evening out on Long Street.
