The Silo Hotel
An extraordinary new luxury hotel in Cape Town
Topping Cape Town’s new Museum of Contemporary Art Africa, the family-owned Silo Hotel hits all the high notes. The former grain elevator was reimagined from rough concrete into diamond, with crystalline windows and a whimsical elegance. Watch the bustle below while soaking in a freestanding tub in one of 28 rooms, designed with a bold mix of colors, prints, and textures. Champagne and carving trolleys roll through the Granary Café, and the spa is sumptuously serene. Grab a glass of pinotage to sip during sunset from the wraparound rooftop terrace.
Hotel Tip
Start the day with warm scones and jam in the Granary Café, then visit the Zeitz MOCAA (Museum of Contemporary Art Africa) attached to the hotel, and finish the day at the rooftop bar.Virtuoso Preferred Supplier Since 01 Jul 2017

Our Commitment
We care - and we know you do, too
We’re committed to running every property in The Royal Portfolio in the most sustainable way possible, in partnership with our team members, suppliers and communities.
We believe that it’s possible to give you the perfect stay, but with a light footprint. We want future generations to experience the same privileges we enjoy today: being able to spend time exploring Africa’s unspoiled wild places and discovering the continent’s rich cultural heritage.
Planet before profit
In every decision we make, we consider the potential impact on people, wildlife and the environment. We focus on issues where we believe we can make a difference: energy and climate change, water usage, packaging and waste, ethical sourcing, community upliftment, and health and wellness and poaching deterrence.
Working with local communities, we’re looking for innovative solutions to reduce, reuse, recycle and rethink our relationship with the world’s limited resources. The hydronic heating and cooling system at Waterside at Royal Malewane is a great example of this philosophy in action, by using circulating water for heating and cooling.
