Overview
About The Silo Hotel
The Silo Hotel occupies six floors above Zeitz MOCAA in Cape Town’s V&A Waterfront. Its 28 individually designed suites pair contemporary African art with the former grain elevator’s geometric windows, and every suite has a private balcony. The property has a rooftop pool, spa, gym, restaurants and bars, with breakfast included in the standard rack rate. Family Duplex Suites sleep four, and children are welcome. The lowest upcoming rack rate is R30,300 per Silo Room per night for two guests in May to September 2027, excluding the Conservation and Community Levy.
“An art-rich Cape Town base for travellers who want the V&A Waterfront, Zeitz MOCAA and a highly individual hotel in one address.”
