Our daughter Lucy (18yr)leaves in July for a year in Australia. She is having a 4 day stop-over in Capetown on the way out. She's travelling with her friend Emily and the two of them need somewhere safe but central to stay whilst they're there. It will be the first time they have travelled alone - although both are reasonably well travelled thanks to family holidays!

Can anyone recommend perhaps a b&b/ small hotel or really safe hostel?

Lucy will be a Gap student at Loreto Normanhurst school in Sydney - it would be good to know some first-hand info about the area its in although obviously we have looked at its website

Thanks to all
