“Close enough to DHL stadium to walk. The promenade was directly across the street. The price was right. We stayed in their smallest room. It was tight but had everything we needed. Breakfast was communal and it was nice to meet the other guests.”

The oldest working Lighthouse in the country, the iconic Green Point Lighthouse, is a stand out feature on the Promenade, which is perfect for walks, jogging, biking and skateboarding.

There are a host of great restaurants and coffee shops close by, while a beauty salon and bicycle store are right around the corner. The Cape Town Stadium which hosts many international music and sporting events is 800m away and directly behind us you'll find the Metropolitan Golf Course.
