Unique Architecture & Views

The Silo Hotel sits atop the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa in Cape Town's V&A Waterfront. Its 56 pillowed-glass windows, locally forged and inspired by grain silos, frame panoramic views of Table Mountain and Table Bay. Rooms feature high ceilings, eclectic décor, and floor-to-ceiling windows.

On-Site Dining

The hotel's restaurant, led by Executive Chef Veronica Canha-Hibbert, serves contemporary cuisine with South African influences. Guests dine with sweeping views of Cape Town. Breakfast includes fresh, locally sourced ingredients.

Art & Culture Access

The hotel shares its building with the Zeitz MOCAA, Africa's largest contemporary art museum. Guests receive complimentary entry. Private tours with expert guides, like Michael Jacobs, offer deeper insights into Cape Town's art scene.

Prime Waterfront Location

The Silo Hotel is steps from the V&A Waterfront, with its shops, restaurants, and harbor activities. Key attractions like Greenmarket Square and the Cape Wheel are within a 15-minute walk. The Metro Station (Line 5) is nearby for easy transit.

Exclusive Experiences

Really good Culinary Experience

“During my stay, I had the pleasure of dining at the Granary Cafe. The food was really good, particularly the breakfast options. My husband mentioned that it was one of the best breakfasts he had ever enjoyed. The pastries were divine, and the a la carte menu offered a good variety to choose from. The attentive service made the experience even better.” view full review

Tranquil Spa Retreat

“I took some time to relax at the hotel spa, and it was an very nice experience. Kashiefa, my masseuse, provided the best massage of my life. She was attentive to my concerns and used different techniques that thoroughly relieved the tension I had been carrying. Afterward, I enjoyed a drink at the rooftop bar with fine views of Table Mountain, capping off the day beautifully.” view full review

Fine Room Amenities

“My room was nothing short of lovely, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows that offered amazing views of the city and harbor. The spacious layout included luxurious bedding, a large soaking tub, and heated bathroom floors that added an extra touch of comfort. It was a true sanctuary where I felt pampered throughout my stay.” view full review

Very nice Rooftop Bar

“One of the highlights of my visit was the rooftop bar, where I enjoyed great drinks and an amazing ambiance. The atmosphere was vibrant, making it the perfect place to unwind after exploring the city. The views from the bar were simply the best in Cape Town, and I made sure to spend plenty of time taking them in.” view full review
