Grimm’s Hotel: When Design Tells Stories

Grimm’s Hotel at Potsdamer Platz proves that a modern design hotel and a magical atmosphere don’t have to be a contradiction. The hotel design references well-known fairy tales, but in a subtle, stylish way. Each floor is dedicated to a different Grimm’s fairy tale. For example, Hansel and Gretel can be found as a paper cut above the bed, complemented by graphic elements and a discreet fairy-tale quote on the wall. Each fairy tale motif was designed by a different young designer, emerging from a competition among art and design students.

The rooms are dedicated to fairy tales such as Hansel and Gretel, Rumpelstiltskin, or Sleeping Beauty. The King Suite, with a golden crown above the bed, is entirely themed around The Frog Prince. Yet, none of it appears playful or kitschy. The puristic, bright, and clear design concept impresses with its overall coherence.

Location, Amenities, and Why a Stay is Worthwhile

Grimm’s Hotel is located at Potsdamer Platz, almost on the border of Kreuzberg and Tiergarten, in the immediate vicinity of Park am Gleisdreieck. Most rooms offer charming city views, Wi-Fi is free in all areas, and guests also have access to a fitness room and a sauna. The absolute highlight is the hotel’s own sauna with a rooftop terrace, which offers a truly exceptional view over the city.

The restaurant on the ground floor also stays true to the theme, with dishes featuring fairy-tale motifs. Guests experience the advantages of a family-run individual hotel where one feels at home, combined with an open-minded attitude to life. So, if you’re looking for a design hotel in Berlin that is more than just a beautiful facade, this is the right place for you.
