Conrad Hotels & Resorts will open its first property in Germany when the Conrad Hamburg debuts. Located in the centre of Hamburg, the property will occupy an iconic building that is set to undergo an extensive refurbishment program before opening under the Conrad brand in 2024.
The luxury hotel will be housed in the historic Levantehaus building, located on one of Europe’s most popular shopping boulevards, the Mönckebergstraße. Moments away from the city’s many landmarks, attractions and transport links, the 238-room hotel will feature 25 spacious suites and 32 residential suites, nine meeting rooms, a sophisticated lounge bar and restaurant, and wellness facilities including a luxury spa, state-of-the-art gym and private pool.
“We are very excited to be working with MHP and Hilton. The concept of Conrad Hamburg, which exemplifies the brand ethos of purposeful service, contemporary design and innovation, is a perfect fit for Levantehaus. We see the Levantehaus as a place of relaxation and enjoyment that inspires people; our events and our social commitment make us an integral part of Hamburg,” said Dietmar Hamm, Managing Director, Levantehaus.
Built in 1912 by Franz Bach and Carl Bensel as an office building, the Levantehaus building was one of the most modern office buildings in Germany.
The sandstone pillars and a sculpture by Barry Baldwin, combined with the mixture of Art Nouveau and Art Deco, continue to create a uniquely elegant atmosphere. In 1997, the Levantehaus was converted into one of Hamburg’s most stylish shopping arcades, also
home to the hotel which is set to undergo a major interior modernisation program before joining the Hilton portfolio, following a multi-million euro investment from Levantehaus Hamburg GBR.
Conrad Hamburg will be located at Bugenhagenstraße 8, 20095 Hamburg, Germany and will operate under a franchise agreement with Munich Hotel Partners GmbH.
