| HOTEL DESCRIPTION |
|
The
elevated demands of a discriminating clientele in respect of comfort,
a timeless aesthetic and the potential of the immediate future -
what we are aiming to satisfy by reviving the grand hotel tradition
in a truly incomparable ambience.
The
restoration - in a new guise - of the former watertower in Cologne
- the largest of its kind in Europe - has given rise to a hotel
in which the standards of conventional hôtellerie are left
far behind. The restoration of the historic 19th century fabric
of the structure and its sensitive penetration by modern elements
have merged in the creation of an architectonic space that points
the way to the future. |

| ROOM FEATURE |
|
Cylinders
and circles - inspired by the geometry of the watertower itself
- are the striking elements in the formal language of its
interior architecture. Dark African hardwoods contrast with
the coarse earthiness of the masonry; an effect of transparent
limpidity is created by the lamps of sintered glass.
Every single item of furniture, every single accessory bears
the personal hallmark of French designer Andrée Putman.
The consistency of her design is matched by the comprehensiveness
of the range of services offered by the hotel.
The
unique spatial impression evoked by the maisonettes is surpassed
only by the majesty of the suites and the Presidential suite.
In addition to lounge, bedroom and bathroom, the suite also
includes a study and dining room. As in all the rooms throughout
the building, the hotels cultural standards are represented
here too by works of contemporary artists. |

| HOTEL FACILITIES & AMENITIES |
|
The
spectrum of service available is rounded off by sauna, solarium,
fitness and massage parlour. The interior is characterized
by small unexpected details throughout, the bathrooms being
no exeption.
Since the 1st of April 2002, our new head chef, Hendrick Otto,
has been showing his abilities in the Restaurant im Wasserturm,
producing classical French food with a Mediterranean twist.
One could say: ...the highest cooking in
Cologne
, with wonderful views of the city from
our 11th floor roof terrace. As would be expected a comprehensive
selection of fine wines have been chosen to compliment our
menu.
Our
restaurant now offers a new lunch menu. Working on the ethos:
light, fine & fast, high quality, seasonal
products are freshly prepared and created into lighter courses,
naturally Hendrick Otto remains faithful to his culinary style
and high standards, while endeavouring to produce an excellent
price for this level of cooking, starters vary from €
8,00 to € 12,00 and main courses from € 16,00 to
€ 18,00. |
