We’re all familiar with the concept of hotels focussing on a variety of niches — yoga or art for example — but until recently we had never come across one with music at its heart.
That, however, is a big part of the concept behind Berlin’s Nhow hotel, which is aimed squarely at the musically minded set.
Located directly on the banks of the river Spree, the Nhow Berlin bills itself as the only hotel in Europe offering two professional music studios. A dedicated music manager is on staff, as is a team drawing heavily from local music colleges. Regular live events and concerts take place in the hotel’s event spaces and terraces, while first-rate DJs are on hand in the bar.
The music studios are operated in collaboration with Lautstark Music GmbH/René Rennefeld, which also manage the legendary Berlin Hansa recording studios.
The Nhow’s 304 rooms, meanwhile, are kitted out with iPod connections and more than 30 TV and 100 music radio stations integrated in a state-of-the-art entertainment system. Wireless Internet and more than 5,000 videos-on-demand are available in every room; Gibson guitars are even available through room service! One wall of the hotel’s exterior is also being designed through a collaboration with Berlin graffiti artists.
So if you fancy taking in the delights of Berlin and extending your cultural experience to your accommodation, the Nhow Berlin hotel could be the place for you!
