Leonardo Hotels Opens 308-room Leonardo Hotel Berlin Mitte in Germany
Berlin - October 6, 2014 - With its exclusive position in the historical Bertolt Brecht Platz, not far from the famous Friedrichstrase and the banks of the river Spree, the newest addition to the Leonardo Hotels chain is set right in the heart of Berlin.
The design concept of the hotel, by interior designer Andreas Neudahm, takes the exciting history of the area into consideration. The interior designer has combined elements of the modern, colourful metropolis of Berlin with cleverly designed supplementary elements that are related to the location, for example, motifs of the Variete Dancers. Neudahm explains: "The moment they enter the lobby, the guests should feel the pulse of this exciting location." In 1868, Berlinfs first market hall was built here. Later, a circus which seated 5000 guests was housed in the building. Then followed the Groƒes Schauspielhaus and the old Friedrichstadt-Palast also has its roots here.
The 4-Star Hotel Garni offers 308 comfortable rooms, a luxurious and spacious 85m2 loft suite and two conference rooms with modern design for up to 60 delegates. The small, elegant "Feel Good Area" welcomes guests with a sauna, a steam bath, several exercise machines and a comfortable relaxation area. All the rooms have coffee and tea stations, air-conditioning, flat screen TV, a mini bar, free WiFi and a safe. The rooms on the sixth to the ninth floors all have terraces from which guests can enjoy the impressive view of Berlin. The "Brecht" Lounge is on the eighth floor - this is a luxurious business lounge for special events, and also boasts a view of the city. The focal point, and therefore the centrepiece of the hotel are the lobby, the adjoining "Circus Bar" and the "Bertolt breakfast restaurant".
The Leonardo Hotel Berlin Mitte is the fast-expanding Leonardo Hotels chainfs sixth hotel in the capital city. Besides the premium hotel in Alexanderplatz - the Leonardo Royal Hotel Berlin Alexanderplatz - the hotel group, with a total of 1,221 rooms in Berlin, also runs the Leonardo Hotel Berlin, the Leonardo Hotel Berlin City West, the Leonardo Airport Hotel Berlin Brandenburg and the Leonardo Hotel Berlin City South.
