Ashanti Lodge hostel is located a 5-10 minute walk from Long Street, the centre of Cape Town. It takes about 45 minutes to walk to the Victoria & Albert waterfront, and 20 minutes to the train and bus stations. There is a security gate to enter the premises.
At the entrance, the reception has three computers for internet access, two payphones, and a large travel information desk. The information desk is staffed on weekdays, which can book robben island trips, overland tours, whale-watching trips, car hire, etc. The helpful reception will be happy to book taxis or find information for you.
The TV room, with several armchairs, bean bags, and a reasonable selection of videos (that you can watch at any time) is also downstairs.
Upstairs, the spacious, friendly bar has a pool table and serves breakfast, lunch and tea. The bar is supposed to close at midnight, but rarely does - try to avoid the dorm room next to the bar if you want an early night!
The dorm rooms mostly have six beds (bunks), with under-bed lockers, and a sink in each room. The showers are clean, warm and roomy. Out the back of the hostel is a large pool for the warmer months, surrounded by sun loungers. The hostel tends to be fairly busy even during the winter.
Overall, the Ashanti Lodge is a fun social hostel with good facilities in a good location.
