VISI Great Spaces Tour: The Silo Hotel

IMAGES Jan Ras


On Saturday 20 May, two groups of VISI readers got the opportunity to explore the brand-new Silo Hotel in Cape Town’s V&A Waterfront.

The Silo Hotel, run by The Royal Portfolio, is currently featured in our Autumn Issue. Guests were taken on a tour through the Thomas Heatherwick-designed building by the owner of The Royal Portfolio, Liz Biden. Guests were treated to 360-degree rooftop views from the 11th floor, where you’ll find a bar overlooking the harbour, Table Mountain and Lion’s Head and a glass-walled swimming pool.

Apart from a selection of deluxe rooms and the two-storey family suite, readers gained access to both the Penthouse Suite and the Royal Suite, boasting the hotel’s most luxurious amenities, including massage rooms, walk-in wardrobes and private dining rooms.

Guests were also treated to delicious snacks and Graham Beck bubbly, as well as goodie bags, which included the latest issue of VISI and a bottle of Graham Beck Gorgeous Pinot Noir Chardonnay.
