CURIOCITY Backpackers Johannesburg
302 Fox Street, Maboneng Precinct, 2029 Johannesburg, South Africa – Great location - show map
The place is clean and people are really nice, all the staff are so friendly and always asking if everything is ok. Loved it

The people of the place, the view, and the accommodation

A nice hostel in the heart of maboneng, it has all the amenities you need during your stay in Johannesburg. Despite the short time I got along with the staff, very knowledgeable and friendly. And the bar also, good vibe!!

I haven't explored it. Because I am hardly around but I understand why I love the place. The plant,the books,the setting It's very organic and a home for new age hippies. Next time I'll explore the energy and engage in activities.

The different cultures, friendly staff. The area mostly

One of the best hostels I've stayed at in a year of backpacking. Great design, super kind and friendly staff, cool vibes, spotlessly clean, comfortable. Curiocity is all that you could ask for in a hostel - so much more than just a bed for the night. Thanks for the hospitality!

It has a well selected location, with a very artsy/creative environment. The property feels very cosy and relaxed, and has very friendly staff.

The stuff is SUPER nice and fun. The place is located in the middle of the city center so it can be a bit dangerous but ut provides many fun activities and the hostel's street is safe. Many locals come to hang out in the hostel's bar and it brings the opportunity to have intersting conversations and to know new people every daym It is deffinatly one of the best hostels in SA.

The staff were excellent, the night life in the bar area was awesome, food and drinks were reasonably priced, and there were many things to do through the hostel, including their great tours of the city and Soweto.

Good location, friendly staff, and good value for your bucks.
