The Silo
About the hotel
The Silo rises majestically above the V&A Waterfront, framed by the beauty of the "Mother City", as Cape Town is so often known. Its shimmering pillowed-glass windows are the signature of this luxury hotel, making it a true architectural statement. The 28 rooms are set six floors above the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (MOCAA). Each suite is entirely unique, with its own colour palette, contemporary African art and meticulous attention to detail. The rooftop bar and swimming pool create wonderful evenings overlooking the lights of Cape Town. Its central waterfront location is ideal for setting out on excursions in the surrounding area. The Silo is an original and inspiring place from which to enjoy a wonderful stay in Cape Town.
Kids & Teens
The Waterfront is a paradise for children, offering a perfect blend of fun and learning, including the Scratch Patch, the Two Oceans Aquarium, a ferris wheel, playgrounds, a pirate ship in the harbour and the little sightseeing train that runs along the Waterfront. Around Cape Town, there are countless opportunities for excursions and nature reserves where safaris can be enjoyed. The team at The Silo will be delighted to assist and share their recommendations.

in our eyes
The Silo enchants its guests in countless ways. Its extraordinary architecture, combined with individually designed rooms, is utterly unique on a global scale. Thanks to its central waterfront location, The Silo is the ideal base for discovering both the city and the landscapes beyond.
Best time to travel
The best time to visit Cape Town extends from November to March, when the city enjoys sunny, warm weather – ideal for exploring its celebrated beaches and landmarks such as Table Mountain. During these months, temperatures are pleasant and lend themselves to a wide variety of experiences, from wine tastings in the renowned wine regions to boat trips in the harbour. A visit to the Cape of Good Hope and the picturesque Cape Winelands is also especially rewarding at this time, as the weather is clear and stable.
