The Red Location Backpacker Lodge is situated in the heart of Port Elizabeth’s Red Location Cultural Precinct placing visitors in the center of area’s unique cultural diversity.

The Red Location area was at the forefront of the political struggle in South Africa and continues to play an important role in Nelson Mandela Bay.

Alongside the Red Location Backpackers you will find the Red Location Apartheid Museum.

Accommodation is in one of three dormitories each sleeping a maximum of 35 persons or you can choose from twelve private rooms each with a Flat Screen Television and lockable.

A bright reception area contains historical images and leads to the common dining area.

The dining area occupies the central hub of what was formerly a beer hall and breakfast, lunch or supper is served on request from a spotless kitchen.

See the telephone number displayed in the video for bookings.

Alan Straton

Chief Cook, Bottle Washer and Broom Mechanic at MyPE
Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
