What we like about the school
- Rooftop terrace
International House
The language school International House was founded in Cape Town, South Africa in 2008. The school is based in a safe, friendly and central area in Cape Town called Sea Point. The school is only 50 min away from the Atlantic Ocean and the famous Sea Point Promenade. Shops, restaurants, cafes, supermarkets, doctors, gym, cinema, all you need, is in close proximity to the school. The different accommodation options are also very close to the school with most of them in walking distance and some of them only a short bus ride away.
It is very easy to get to all the tourist attractions in Cape Town like the Waterfront, Table Mountain, the city center and Camps Bay.
The school address is: 5 Regent Road, 8005 - Cape Town, South Africa (see on map)
Covid-19 related security measures that are taken by International House
All protocols will be followed on the re-opening of the school.
