About
At Totalstay, we believe exceptional hospitality comes from blending technology with human connection. Our team of 300 incredible humans operates across South Africa's most vibrant neighborhoods, from Cape Town to Johannesburg and Pretoria. Founded by two tech enthusiasts who started with just one apartment and a big dream, we've grown into a dynamic aparthotel brand by staying true to our purpose and constantly pushing boundaries. We've built our own custom booking engine and continue to innovate at the intersection of hospitality and technology. We're not just managing properties - we're crafting stories. Every space we design, every guest experience we curate, and every detail we perfect reflects our commitment to redefining what it means to stay local. Our people thrive in an environment where innovation meets hospitality, where tech solutions enhance rather than replace human warmth, and where every team member contributes to creating memorable stays that our guests can't wait to share. We chase purpose, not just profit, and that unshakeable foundation guides everything we do.
