I stayed 7 days at the Melville House and felt like its a hostel that really understands community and sharing. Staff was great, talkative and helpful. Other guests staying there were mingling and cool. I met local students looking for long term accomodation, long term travellers stopping by in Johannesburg and I myself was on workation - which was great in my private room that had an amazing comfortable bed and i had my own bathroom. The shared spaces were a place to meet the others and the surrounding is relatively save for Joburg standards so that I could even go for walks and jogg in the morning. Loved it!

An amazing place to discover the life in Soweto and better understand the history. We really enjoyed the place and the opportunity we had to visit with Luggi Soweto. It was by bike for us but other transportation means were possible. He explained us a lot about the apartheid, the evolution since then and today life in Soweto. We discovered a nice village and have been very well welcomed not only by the owner and his family but also by the neighbours. Luggi took us for dinner to an African Buffet: delicious. The experience we had there has been a very good surprise and we warmly recommend the place. It's worth discovering it. By the way, wifi is free

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
