Located in Observatory, this out-of-this-world attraction is worth a look. But you'll find plenty more to discover in the area. Table Mountain, Cape Town Stadium, and Two Oceans Aquarium aren't too far from South African Astronomical Observatory.

We stayed here from March 14 th to March 22. We booked 2 rooms and the stay was awesome. It was right at the city center. The staff was so attentive and very courteous and friendly. The rooms were spacious, neat and comfortable. Breakfast was included and was awesome.
