The great breakfast, the view from our bedroom (see photo), the old movie feeling inside the estate, the eclectic decoration, the adorable “secret forest café” at the bottom of the garden. Simply fantastic. Everybody was so kind and helpful. This was truly a highlight during our trip to Cape Town.

I stayed at the Silo for the first time in 2022 after having dinner there for a work event. I was there again for work in 2023, and finished the trip with my husband at the Silo to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. I notified the staff that it was our anniversary and they went far and beyond to ensure that we taken care of. The service is amazing. The details are exquisite. And the experience exceeds expectation. We will be back in 2024 😁

The staff were so accommodating! I felt very safe as a solo traveller. The driver Peter was lovely and tooo me everywhere I needed to go. He even collected me earlier than booked when I finished hiking. And he drove me an hour to my next hotel. The room was beautiful and the view from the balcony was gorgeous. The robes in the room were so soft. And I loved the turn down service when they placed sweets on the pillow. The receptionist Reyln was so friendly and booked an amazing restaurant at the waterfront for me. I can’t recommended this hotel enough. Absolutely perfect.
