I recommend this backpackers above most in Cape Town. Friendly staff and always going that extra mile. Perfect setting- close to the stadium in Cape Town, Waterfront and beaches. Lovely private and dorm beds available. Perfect sunny days laze around the pool. They can arrange all your day tours eg. Abseiling, Shark cage diving and off course the wine routes.... More

I would highly recommend the Sunflower Stop. I stayed there for three days and really loved it. It's in a great location so I could easily walk to the beaches, Long Street, shops and cafes. Also the staff is wonderful. One of the front desk staff, Daniel, was so nice! He called at least 10 different places to get me... More

As a 26 year old married man, travelling with my Mum to Cape Town for 4 days after a family wedding in another part of South Africa, I was a little worried about staying here. I knew I’d enjoy it as I’ve spent the last 10 years staying at places like this, but I didn’t know what my 46 year... More

I only have good things to say about A Sunflower Stop. The room was great, serviced every day, quiet and well insulated enough to sleep in at night, despite being above the bar and with a busy road outside. Andrew in particular was a fine and friendly host, thanks for all the local information and the late night bar conversations.... More

We stayed in Sunflower Stop in the beginning of 2013. The hostel was quite busy so there was a nice vibe. The rooms are nice and luxurious, once you lay on the bed you almost do not want to get out. The rooms are serviced daily what is very nice and very personal! The hostel is situated in a safe... More

Sunflower Stop is fantastic. From the people I met while staying there to all of the assistance in arranging my time in Cape Town, I was never disappointed. I stayed in a mixed dorm room with a friend and we were very happy about the cleanliness and respectfulness everyone showed while staying. The accommodation at the hostel ranged from nice... More

I stayed in a mixed dorm room, with some friends, and had a nice time there. As a frequent visitor of hostels I was happily surprised at this place. First of all, it was clean. The rooms and the shared bathroom facilities. They also made your bed every day. Talk about luxury at a hostel! Second of all, it was... More
