Industrial harbor silo
A 1950s emergency grain silo now operates as a dockside hotel, with a terrace bar right on the Rhine.
What it’s good at
Notable
Industrial concrete and Corten steel meet mid-century furnishings in waterfront lofts.
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
This old granary in the port quarter has been beautifully converted into an attractive hotel.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The Rhine and working docks sit out front, with Mannheim's central street grid just a short ride away.
The rooms
Rooms keep their raw concrete walls and mid-century furnishings, with beds cushioned by natural Coco-Mat mattresses.
Yoga and sauna
The yoga and meditation room connects directly to an intimate sauna area designed for quiet downtime.
At the table
Beneath a gallery wall of art, the timber bar serves cocktails and spirits alongside plates of tortilla and jamón ibérico.
How it began
Built as a Cold War grain reserve, the silo sat empty for thirty years before architects wrapped it in Corten steel.
