The Silo Hotel, Cape Town
Expert reviews
“The Silo pretty well defines the adage, ‘Location, location, location’. You have to be up for some bold décor choices, but the location and views couldn’t be better and having access to the hottest museum on the continent is pretty cool.”
Featured in CN Traveler’s 2018 Hot List
“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.”
“With a façade remodelled by celebrated British designer Thomas Heatherwick, industrial concrete architecture offset by plush eclectic décor, and an unparalleled vantage point on top of the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa, The Silo is truly a destination hotel.”

I wouldn’t recommend anyone to come stay with you with that furniture and carpet
You need to change all the furniture and the carpets…The bathroom ottoman too …I would suggest getting furniture from Griffiths & Griffiths then the charge per night would make sense.You have a great location but you are not providing luxury at all !You can’t even compare to One and Only but you are charging more than them
