Iconic hotel in the center of Cape Town
In the center of the colorful and vibrant "Mother City," on the spot where a giant grain silo once stood, stands an architectural marvel: The Silo. Towering over the V&A Waterfront, the iconic building offers phenomenal views of Robben Island, Signal Hill, Devil's Peak, Table Mountain, Lion's Head and the ocean. The design of the hotel was also in the hands of Liz Biden at this Royal Portfolio hotel, resulting in a picture-perfect fusion of colorful and eclectic pieces with the industrial construction of concrete, steel and glass.
Urban highlights
At the hotel, you'll have a great time in the spa, rooftop pool, sky bar or gym, and you don't have to leave the door for high-end taste experiences either: chef Veronica Canha-Hibbert and her team guarantee exceptional dishes using honest seasonal local ingredients. But of course, it's tempting to venture outside the door on a gastronomic exploration and immerse yourself in Cape Town's nightlife. The Silo is also the ideal base from which to explore the city's cultural highlights; it is literally around the corner. You don't even have to walk up the street to get to the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCAA); it is located directly below the hotel in the same building. The permanent and temporary exhibitions of modern African art are absolute must-sees for art lovers! But Cape Town has much more to offer; you can spend days here navigating between high-level urban highlights and day trips just outside the city. Where the world can't find you....
