Top 5 Reasons The Old Foundry Hotel Is Cape Town’s Ultimate Retreat Venue for Work & Wellness

When it comes to corporate retreats in Cape Town, organizers are usually seeking two things: a venue that drives productivity and a space that offers genuine relaxation. The Old Foundry Hotel, nestled in the heart of De Waterkant, brings these two worlds together seamlessly. As part of the team here, I've witnessed the excitement of business travelers and retreat organizers when they realize they’ve discovered a venue that truly understands their needs. We’re not just another hotel — we’re the perfect setting for your next retreat. Here’s why:

Built for Deep Work: No plastic desks. No noisy lobbies. Just smart spaces, fast Wi-Fi, and real workstations. Plus, full access to Ideas Cartel’s co-working HQ — where productivity meets luxury.

Wellness Isn’t an Afterthought: From yoga to in-room massages, calming interiors to barista-made coffee — we don’t just allow you to exhale, we design for it.

Walkable, Connected, Effortless: CTICC? V&A Waterfront? Cape Town’s finest restaurants? Steps away. Team transport? Sorted. You focus on bonding — we’ll handle the logistics.

Service That Gets You: We learn your names, not just your booking numbers. Want to curate the perfect retreat? We’re on it. From welcome drinks to strategy sessions — every detail tailored.

Stay Somewhere That Feels Like a Creative Escape: Historic bones. Industrial soul. Cozy edges. Our rooms spark ideas and rest — the kind of place that makes you say, “I could live here.”

Need a break from the city buzz? If your team wants a quieter escape, we also offer sister hotels just outside Cape Town, providing a serene environment to recharge while still being connected to the energy of the city.
