Hotel rates in South Africa vary according to the time of year, the location
and the individual establishment, although you may be able to negotiate rates
outside the high season and for long stays. South Africa's luxury hotels charge
the same high rates as those in London, New York and other expensive cities.
Bed and breakfast accommodation is also available, although it isn't usually
budget accommodation. For budget accommodation (around R150/£13 per night)
you need to choose a hostel or residence, which is similar to a hotel but contains
self-catering apartments or studios. In a major city like Johannesburg, cheap
hotels are sometimes used as permanent accommodation. There are also apartment
hotels, listed in the yellow pages and on the internet
