It is funky, fun and a cool place to be, situated in vibrant and bohemian Observatory. Live in the heart of Cape Town's true hustling, bustling and loud soul Obviouzly Armchair Observatory.
We have comfortable beds and spacious rooms but sleeping is not an option with so much to see and do. You can hang out on the upstairs balcony and party with your fellow travellers and party goers on the neighbouring balconies, chill in our Lair Cafe and Secret Garden or join your friends and locals in the pub. For sport lovers you can sit in the pub or lounge in your favourite armchair and watch live sport.

On weekends you can indulge in our Bring & Braai from 12am onwards or join us and enjoy a typical South African Potjie.
We are a one minute walk to the station and taxis are conveniently parked nearby. There are a variety of offbeat and trendy restaurants, a pool bar and live music venues on the same street, so you won!t need to go far to indulge your senses. If you want a change of scenery, Cape Town, Table Mountain and the beaches are ten minutes away or we can arrange day trips, tours and safari weekends.
