From Grain Silo to SA's Most Expensive City Hotel !
The Silo hotel has been built in the grain elevator portion of the historic grain silo complex that was abandoned for many years .It consists of 6 floors above the Zeitz MOCAA.
The Zeitz MOCAA houses Africa’s largest contemporary art collection and is named after the EX-CEO of PUMA , Jochen Zeitz.
The grain silo was the tallest building in Africa when it opened in August 1924.
It closed in August 2001 after 80 years at the heart of South Africa’s industrial and agricultural development.
The grain silo played a big role in terms of international trade as an export facility.
The Silo Hotel has set new standards for Cape Town’s luxury hotel accommodation. A magical hotel towering above the V&A Waterfront surrounded by the natural wonder of South Africa’s Mother City.
This place is definitely a must see when visiting Cape Town South-Africa!
