Hotel description
Design Hotel
Former Charlottenburg women's prison in a historic 19th century brick building. The restoration, which won the German Sustainability Award for Architecture 2022, changed the function of the rooms - from isolated prison cells to meeting places, the prison wing was transformed into a light-flooded atrium, cell windows were turned into large openings, the structure of the listed building was carefully preserved, the former lock yard is now the Lovis restaurant, there is a pop-up art gallery in the hotel, the recently opened Lotta Tagesbar offers a wide selection of homemade specialties made from regional ingredients, from a cozy morning brunch to a relaxed evening after work, it is the perfect place to enjoy quality food and drink
Boutique Hotel
The 44 rooms in the former cells have been refurbished in a minimalist chic style. Each room is unique, but they all share the same serene aesthetic, light colours and high quality materials such as COCO-MAT beds, luxurious bathrooms and leaves pressed into frames to give the rooms a natural aesthetic
City Hotel
The hotel itself is set in a quiet courtyard with a large garden, but once you step outside the large gate, you are on Berlin's Kantstraße in the Charlottenburg district, right next to the famous Kurfürstendamm, well connected to public transport, the street is particularly well known for its selection of Asian restaurants, and the surrounding area is full of boutiques, bars and restaurants
