About this hotel
Towering above Cape Town’s Victoria and Alfred Waterfront, The Silo Hotel is an artistic escape filled with a quirky, contemporary style and breathtaking panoramic views. Housed in the harbor’s historic grain silo, the innovatively transformed building (designed by Heatherwick Studio) does not give away much from the exterior. Industrial minimalism is juxtaposed by floor-to-ceiling, prism-shaped windows, hinting at the opulence that lies within. Style and creativity are at the fore at The Silo. Perched above the renowned Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa, the luxury hotel continues the celebration of design. Interiors curated by hotelier Liz Biden are brilliantly stylish and colorful, each space taking you on a unique journey inspired by her travels. Upon return from a trip up Table Mountain Aerial Cableway or a Winelands tour, retreat to the sanctity of The Silo Rooftop, where a feast of oysters and local vino provides the ideal accompaniment to incredible vistas.
