Highly Recommend!

A wonderful location and even better service made for a terrific stay! The rooms were great sizes, cleaned thoroughly daily, breakfast was quick and tasty, and the staff was quick to answer any and all questions. I really felt at home and at ease for my week long stay!

Eclectic industrial with friendly staff

Hotel has industrial and unique interior design. Don’t expect flash. Do expect wonderfully friendly staff and eclectic feel. We were scammed by the airport taxi so be aware to get a taxi taxi. Not people who say they are. The receptionist staff were very helpful with this towards our credit card. Especially Azola. Breakfast was great too. Thank you.
Martin, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Shared space building with communal working areas and office spaces make it a weird set up. Lighting in the room was very dim and made it difficult to do things like shave in the bathroom using the mirror. Bed was comfy and breakfast good. Better places to stay in the area tbh.

It was a great place to explore the city from.

Beautifully decorated Hotel, very unique modern style. The Team was super helpful with everything. And it's a walking distance to the V&A Waterfront. I will definitely come back again.

This is one of the most unique hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The hotel is part of a larger complex that has repurposed an old foundry into an ultra modern compound. Very cool space.
Daniel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The most beautiful room/hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Felt so posh yet comfortable and homey. The staff were helpful and everything was so clean.
Prerna, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I loved The Foundry Hotel! My husband and decided to have a little mini-holiday and love the decor and space. Sadly, a flood in the middle of the night, meant we had to change rooms at 1 am (suitcases open, etc etc). The staff was great about it (and the night receptionist gave us a nice bottle of white wine to say thank you for our understanding), but I haven't heard anything from management about compensating us in any way (although I did ask).

Bra hotell, med förbättringspotential

Trevligt hotell med gångpromenad till Waterfront. Bra frukost som man fick beställa i cafét i samma byggnad. Sköna sängar. Lite högljudda toaletter samt några obehöriga kryp inne på toaletten. Något krångligt att ta sig in kvällstid då grindar var låsta och man behövde gå genom ett garage och det inte fanns lampor vid entré och parkering. Också lite otäckt med uteliggare precis utanför, framförallt kvällstid. Men totalt sett ett bra hotell!

Excellent place to stay as a gateway to the waterfront. Lovely spacious room. Extremely friendly staff. It took us 10 minutes to walk to the waterfront and it was safe.

Its a pretty dark hotel
Teck Meng Wilson, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

I love the repurposing of old buildings, and The Old Foundry has done this with great practical and aesthetic execution. The room was small, but we knew this when we booked. It had all the amenities we needed, including Africology products in the bathroom. The breakfast was excellent and the staff friendly, helpful and responsive to every need.

Good location/value for money

Staff were helpful and friendly. Hotel is shared with hot office spaces so different from what you may be used to, but not to the detriment of our stay. Just a little quirky. Good location within walking distance of V&A waterfront although recommended to travel by uber / taxi after dark. Overall a good base for our weeks stay and good value compared to other hotels we had looked at. Lots of security personnel around the area which may make you feel nervous or reassured. We felt quite safe from our experience.
