The Rockefeller Hotel ...where business travel breaks the mould
Business Brief
|BusinessBrief October/November 2025
Corporate travel in 2025 is shifting away from anonymous “beige” hotels with their predictable décor and copy-paste amenities. The Luxury Travel Report 2025 notes that 70% of premium travellers believe hotels have “lost their soul,” while three-quarters refuse to pay for “generic luxury.” Today’s business travellers want hotels with personality, purpose, and a sense of place.

The Rockefeller Hotel by Newmark positions itself as exactly that. Located in Cape Town's business district, just 800 metres from the International Convention Centre, the property blends work and lifestyle in a way few corporate hotels attempt. Its design-forward interiors feature artwork by Gavin Goodman and Chris De Wet and furnishings by local designers, creating an atmosphere of distinct character.
