Exclusive, unique, a one-of-a-kind experience. The Hotel im Wasserturm, international luxury hotel in what used to be Europes largest water tower, is one of the most unusual hotels in Germany. Classified as a heritage site, you find an extraordinary interior design of timeless modernity behind its 140 year-old walls. Designed by the French interior designer Andre Putman, the first-class hotel was opened in 1990 and today presents itself in an elegant style.The form of a tower is a symbol for a kind of refuge, protection and safety that is not confining, but rather gives you a great sense of spaciousness and generosity. The imposing 11 meters high entrance hall with its catwalks alone will give you that impression.
