- Jolling
Jolling is a wonderful Afrikaans word for PARTYwhy-because-you-canING. And there’s lots of it in Southern Africa because the people are friendly , the beer is cheap and the nightlife whatever you want it to be. This icon tells you when to put on your dancing shoes.

Situated in Observatory which is near to the University of Cape Town, this artistic and student community has numerous vibey bars, coffee shops and restaurants. It nestles below Devil’s Peak which forms part of the Table Mountain National Park and offers great walking and mountain biking. A highlight of your stay will be a walk up Table Mountain with their in-house guide.
The world famous Groote Schuur Hospital (where the first successful heart transplant was performed) is also within walking distance.
The main house is home to the INDABar bar (Xhosa for meeting place), the swimming pool, fully equipped communal kitchen, internet café and 24 hour reception, whilst the private rooms and en-suites next door offer a quiet sleeping zone and are perfect for family’s too.
