The hostel is located in Hatfield, which is probably one of the nicest areas in Pretoria and Joburg. The doubles/chalets are great value for less than 300, a bit tiny but you'll have enough space. They provide free breakfast, have a pool, a clean and well-equipped kitchen plus a really cozy common area in the garden. It would be nice... More

Spent a couple of weeks at the 1322 in late 2009 early 2010 whilst touring South Africa. This is a comfortable, reliable, safe kind of Hostel and good value for money.

That said, we were there on a cold, rainy night, and it was perfectly dry and cozy in our room. The bed is comfy and there is a sink in the... More

I found 1322 through Trip Advisor, and I'm delighted I did. I stayed in three different hostels whilst I was in South Africa, and this was, by a long way, the best. Yzelle (the owner) and Maj (the other member of staff) were both fantastic. I left after 6 nights, but ended up coming back for my final 3 nights... More

1322 Backpackers International was a wonderful place to stay. The atmosphere was definitely welcoming, comfortable, and the African/International decor topped it all off.

We had comfortable beds, hot showers, wireless internet, and were a 5-minute walk from Hatfield Square (cafe... More
