Stunning views from the rooftop bar of the mountains and harbour. The food and drinks were delicious. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The hotel is beautiful and a great place to checkout.
One of the very best hotels you can stay at in Cape Town. Eclectic and quirky and very very classy. Great way to be based when you’re taking in the city.
What a stunning place for every occasion. The restaurants are amazing and the drinks absolutely wonderful. We have been for high tea and drinks and each time, we are never disappointed.
Stayed here on our honeymoon while in Cape Town: Cannot say enough good things about this hotel. 5 star views, food, and especially service. Amazing experience.
It was a nice experience to check it out but my overall experience: Nothing Wow and the service you experience is defnitely not what you would expect from a 5 Star Hotel.
FABULOUS HOTEL IN CAPE TOWN!
---We recently stayed at The Silo for 6 nights during our 6.5 week African Adventure in a Deluxe Superior Suite that was stunning. Floor to ceiling windows gives you gorgeous views of the city, mountains and harbor. Nothing was sparred when building this hotel and the décor. The suite was so spacious with luxurious bedding, heated bathroom floors, large soaking tub, walk in shower, sitting area and balcony. The hotel won a big award for “Best Achievement in Design”.
---I wrote the concierge in advance to plan restaurants and other questions and they responded quickly with great communication. Thank you to Jessica and Cemone for your great service.
---Annelina brought us to our suite and explained everything in detail. She was incredible.
---The food at the Granary Café was exceptional. My husband said one it was one of the best breakfast’s he has had. The pastries were divine. There was a wonderful a la carte menu with many choices. Thank you to Rita , Peter and Rob for your attentive service. All the staff in the restaurant had the best attitudes. Thank you to Nigel (Restaurant Manager) and Daniel (Host).
---We ate dinner at the hotel restaurant 3 nights, that had creative delicious food and loved the views there too.
---There is a marvelous rooftop bar with great drinks- be sure not to miss going there. It is the place to be!
---We also used the lovely Spa. Thanks to Kashiefa and Wardah.
---We were celebrating a special occasion and there were so many treats in our suite including delicious sweets, champagne, rose petals and chocolate covered strawberries. We surely were surprised every day!
---What makes this so hotel FANTASTIC is the General Manager Luis Pinheiro. He is so engaging with his guests, always present and with a great sense of humor. Thank you Luis for making our stay so extraordinary. The beautiful book you gave us is displayed on our coffee table in our home.
--Thank you also to Johandri (Deputy Manager) who was so lovely to us.
---All the staff had the best attitudes with the biggest smiles.
---The hotel is in a great location close to the V & A Waterfront Complex with over 450 stores and restaurants.
---Make sure to allow enough days in Cape Town to enjoy all it has to offer. A highlight was going up the Cable Car to Table Mountain.
---There was one staff member, that stood out to us. He had the biggest smile and we loved him! He brought treats to our room and took care of all our special requests. On night he knew we were watching a USA Playoff game on the TV and he brought us a big bowl of popcorn. Thank you Shingai for making our stay so exceptional! You are an amazing person!

Stunning hotel situated with amazing views of Table Mountain, Lions Head, V&A Waterfront, the ocean and Green point Staduim, to name a few...
Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Bar has a great vibe.

What a stunner!!! The artwork, the hotel design, and the pure elegance are unmatched. One of my top hotels to stay when in Cape Town.
A Perfect Stay. Amazing location and the views are stunning. We especially loved taking baths to awesome views in their comfortable bathtub. We are vegan and they included a vegan chocolate and non dairy milk in the room. All the staff was friendly and helpful. Definite repeat value if we are ever in Cape Town. The hotel is unique and beautiful and location places you in walking distance of V&A waterfront.
I didn't stay at the hotel so I can't speak on the rooms. I was at Granary Café and from the reception on the ground floor to the service at the restaurant, it was absolutely amazing. The location is strategically stunning!
Got 15,000$
For one night you get the top of the world!
This Penthouse Suite is one of the best I've ever seen with a world-class view!
Luxury and excess at it's finest!
Well appointed, well staffed, you will not be disappointed if you're lucky enough to stay here.

This is a review with regards to the rooftop bar, rather than the hotel itself. Staff is really organized and helpful, they have a way of making you feel at home. The views are extraordinary. Unbelievable sunsets on a clear day. Really worth a visit.
Little overrated influencers place. Food is okay. I had the beyond burger. Views over waterfront, lions head and table mountain is great. Service is good, however the reception on the ground floor could be a little more welcoming. If you don’t have a reservation you’re looked at if you stupid.
