Impressive hotels around the world are visited by Giles Coren and Monica Galetti in the fascinating BBC documentary, Amazing Hotels: Life Beyond the Lobby and its viewers they have the opportunity to enter the interiors of exceptional buildings that combine original architecture, unique services and life experiences.

On Saturday, May 18, we travel to South Africa, a country of incredible natural beauty and cultural diversity. In Cape Town, which in recent years has developed into an international tourist destination, is The Silo, a hotel that receives an award for original design. The Silo is actually a former grain silo built 95 years ago and is 60 meters high.

The lower floors house the Zeist Museum of Contemporary Art, while the upper floors have been converted into a hotel and are a magnet for those looking for unparalleled urban elegance. With incredible panoramic views from the rooms and the rooftop, what makes the hotel stand out is the 300 pieces of contemporary African art inside.

The owners of The Silo have another hotel that reflects another aspect of the South African cultural landscape, La Residence. Built in Frensock, 45 minutes from Cape Town, it has 16 uniquely styled rooms and is surrounded by vineyards and gardens and offers a unique sense of relaxation and tranquility.
