Silo District, V&A Waterfront, Cape Town · South Africa
Contemporary African art, remarkable architecture and Cape Town at your feet.
Why stay here
Cape Town’s working harbour, mountain skyline and contemporary art scene meet at The Silo Hotel. Rising from the historic grain-elevator tower above Zeitz MOCAA, this 28-room hotel is unmistakably of its city: industrial architecture softened by colourful interiors, African art and deeply individual rooms.
Mornings might begin over breakfast at The Granary Café, followed by a privately arranged gallery visit or a day exploring the Cape Peninsula. Return for time beside the rooftop pool, a treatment at the spa or a drink at The Willaston Bar. We will weave your stay into a considered Cape Town journey, selecting the right room and arranging the experiences and onward travel around it.
Ask us which room suits your party, what is included and how this stay connects with the rest of your route. We will check availability for your dates before confirming arrangements.
