The staff were incredible and honestly made me feel so welcome. Considering the price, i was a little disappointed, the room had a really bad smell and there was mould growing in the bathroom (particularly on the ceiling and around extractor fan) which was concerning. The location is awesome! Overall a lovely property but the room may need a little TLC.

They let you know that the toilet is on a weird pump system. They don’t explain that it will make noise for a solid 5 minutes. This also means all other toilets in surrounding rooms also will make noise. The walls are incredibly thin. The lights were confusing. Couldn’t be shut off from a wall switch. It’s close to being a cool experience but i don’t recommend and would not stay there 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.

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!

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.
