We booked this Hotel through Secret Escapes and were very excited by the prospect. However when we arrived there was no record of our booking. The staff were exceptionally kind, calm and efficient and managed to find us a room in there otherwise, apparently, full hotel. The hotel is quite an amazing structure and very different from any other hotel... More

The Hotel introduces itself proudly as a 5 Stars. I believe there are no honourary titles for hotels but each star must be conquered and kept every day. I noted the astonishement of other guests in Tripadvisor about the architecture. But how many architectural changes and amazing display of spaces and rooms can we experience in Europe ? : you...

Very interesting design, fitted in what used to be Europe's largest water tower. I stayed in a two level suite, with slightly colliding designs: modern living room, bedroom and bathrooms with a very traditionally furnished separate dining room. The suite was very well appointed, with two flat screen TV's, one of which was bedside upstairs. Bathrooms are modern and nice... More

The architecture - using a watertower for a modern stylish hotel is unique and deserves commendation . Reception was fine as was my room and the rate I paid . However .. the wifi did not work when I was there and this is unacceptable in a 5 star hotel n 2013 . The breakfast prices are outrageous . The... More

The hotel is unique! It was an old water tower that makes it very exclusive! I had a room on two floors with a living area, a bathroom, another toilet upstairs and a bedroom not very big. I was a bit disappointed by the bed as i don't like when they put 2 matrasses next to each other and 2... More

I love water towers so this one converted into a hotel has been on my my list for a while. Another personal interest: does design ages well? Let's start with that question. A bit mixed feelings here. Andrée Putman did the interior at the end of the eighties (the hotel openend in 1990). It is more about "chique" then about... More

The hotel has a special design in a water tower and I was really curious to see it! The entrance looks good, a bit confusing though. The room had a special shape due to the round building furnished with normal interior design which I found a pity in such a location. The bathroom does not meet 5 star standards. Neither... More

I stayed at Hotel Im Wasserturm with my sister in late july for 2 nights. We booked through booking.com and got a great rate for our room. We were allocated on the 9th floor, and the view was fantastic! Room was spacious. We could turn our window into a door and walk out to a terrace that goes all around... More
