Charlestowne Hotels and Curio Collection by Hilton welcome The Foundry Hotel as the newest high-end, boutique property in Asheville, N.C. A historic preservation of the city’s former 20th-century steel foundry, the hotel joins Charlestowne’s portfolio of adaptive-reuse projects.

As The Foundry Hotel's management company, Charlestowne Hotels leads the property's ongoing operations, marketing and revenue management. It also oversees the hotel's food-and-beverage program in collaboration with chef John Fleer.

Located Asheville’s historic The Block neighborhood, The Foundry Hotel combines two new buildings with three structures from Asheville’s original foundry, which forged steel for regional sites such as The Biltmore Estate. Architectural components pay homage to the property’s roots, such as original brick and hardwood floors, the former pulley elevator on display, exposed beams, steel-star fastenings and industrial-style windows.
