The Silo Hotel

The Silo Hotel is South Africa's most iconic and globally acclaimed urban hotel, a spectacular conversion of the grain silo above the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (MOCAA) at the V&A Waterfront, designed by Thomas Heatherwick with 28 individually designed rooms and suites that occupy the upper six floors of the historic grain elevator. Each room is a unique work of art, with curved glass bubble windows looking out over Table Mountain, the harbour, and the city.

The Silo is in a category of its own among Cape Town hotels, a genuinely world-class design property that has become as important to the Cape Town experience as Table Mountain itself. The Willaston Bar, rooftop pool, and access to the MOCAA collection below it make The Silo a destination in its own right, not merely an accommodation choice.
