The Silo is a magical place that rises above the V&A Waterfront, surrounded by the natural wonders of South Africa's mother city – probably the most iconic luxury hotel in Cape Town. Enjoy a perfect fusion of art, style, architecture, and design in individually decorated rooms. Add to that a fantastic glass pool, a rooftop bar, eclectic gourmet cuisine, and a wonderfully relaxing spa with great signature treatments. The cherry on top is direct access to the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (MOCAA). The Silo promises the perfect Cape Town luxury experience.
The Silo Spa is a tranquil place where you can relax and pamper yourself with the latest therapies and spa techniques. Enjoy signature treatments with top international products such as Ling and Black Pearl. There is also a fitness room, sauna, and a separate area for manicures and pedicures. Swim a few laps in the spectacular glass pool, sip a cocktail in the rooftop bar, or browse through a book from the small in-house library. You also have direct access to MOCAA, the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa, which is not to be missed.
The Silo has 28 rooms, including a spectacular penthouse with 211 square meters of living space, a 24-square-meter balcony, and breathtaking panoramic views of the city and Table Mountain. Each room has been individually designed and decorated by Liz Biden. Colorful and eclectic pieces contrast with the modern, industrial architecture. The six room categories are based on room size and view, but each has its own balcony and a unique collection of contemporary African art.
Head chef Veronica Canha-Hibbert and her team have put together a range of casual and modern menus that include lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner. Breakfast is also a feast: in addition to freshly squeezed juices, the Harvest Table delights with a selection of cold cuts and cheeses, fresh fruit, yogurt, and granola. The omelet soufflé and eggs Benedict are also wonderful. For dinner, choose from five main courses – the melt-in-the-mouth fillet from Namibia is particularly recommended.
Above the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (MOCAA), The Silo spans six floors in a former grain silo of the historic grain silo complex, which has been sensitively redesigned by Heatherwick Studio. The sophisticated glass windows make the building sparkle like a diamond during the day. The hotel's amenities are just as extraordinary as its location. It offers a total of 28 luxuriously appointed rooms, including a spectacular penthouse with 211 square meters of living space, a 24-square-meter balcony, and breathtaking panoramic views of the city and Table Mountain. All rooms and suites have been individually designed and decorated by Liz Biden. The Silo's central location makes it an ideal starting point for your city tours.
