Where should I book accommodation?
The African Doctoral Academy's Doctoral Schools are held in
and around the RW Wilcocks building at Stellenbosch University. The University
is located in the centre of the historic town of Stellenbosch (map) and is within walking distance of a number of hotels
and guest houses.

accommodation are situated within walking distance of Stellenbosch

Stellenbosch has some Uber
cars, taxis are not in steady supply. For those of you arriving
