• Why stay in a Johannesburg Backpackers verses Budget Hotels, Guest Houses and B&B’s
    • Johannesburg Backpackers and Youth Hostels offer accommodation, that is equal to or better than your average 3 Star Budget Hotel, Guesthouse or Bed and Breakfast.
    • The misconception is that Travellers think that a Backpackers Hostel is set up for young people or student only. That these people travel around and stay together only in Dormitory style rooms while sharing all amenities.
    • This is not true, as like other accommodation entities, each place is different and has different types of accommodation.

    • Our Johannesburg Backpackers offers Standard Single, Twin, Double room and rooms En-Suite options.  
    • These are designed and set up to the different themes as does Budget Hotels, Guest Houses, B&B’s and self-catering Units in Johannesburg.
    • Through offering the Backpacker clear information of your expectations you will experience accommodation will full fill all your needs.
    • In my experience you will stay in a healthy clean inviting environment that is warm and friendly with a bit more personal touch added.
    • Its very important to think about what you want from your accommodation, be specific of what it is that you want and if this is what is on offer.
    • Ask things like if the Backpackers Hostel promotes having International Tourists, they have a different vibe and feel,
    • Make sure you request what you want from your room and your accommodation and Travel needs.

    For great comparative accommodation at a Budget price a Backpacker Hostel in Johannesburg is the way to go?

    • The South African Government established in 2010 over Fifa did a assessment on Backpackers Hostels in Johannesburg and the rest of South Africa.
    • The average spend that a person spent in a Backpacker was equal to a Tourist that came and stayed in upmarket Hotels, Guest Houses, Bed and Breakfasts.
    • These people stayed longer and invested more in the Country itself and would be more integrated with the South African culture. 
    • These Travellers spent less on their accommodation and spent more on their adventure and being integrated with Johannesburg. 
    • this does not mean that the accommodation on offer was less, it means they were descerning on getting what they wanted.
    • They would participate in things like Voluntourism, helping people or animals or NGO’s that are situated in and around Johannesburg.
