What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The experience within largely holds true to that motto, repurposing all sorts of pipes and careworn wood and caged bulbs towards a designer’s ode to the textures and patinas of modernity.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The central train station sits just down the street, and the Friedrichsplatz water tower is a short stroll away.
The rooms
Angled layouts bring in generous daylight. In the bedrooms, graphic headboard murals stand above clean hardwood floors.
The gym
Stationary bikes and a treadmill sit beside mirrored walls and parquet floors in the fitness room.
At the table
The open kitchen serves sushi and Eurasian dishes in a dining room lined with red velvet armchairs and chalkboard menus.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
