Last month, I described the Q! Hotel in Berlin, visited by none other than Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. But there are other places to be seen in the German capital: the newly opened Lux 11 in the Mitte district offers compact, ultra-modern rooms (or ‘apartments’ as they refer to them), tastefully decorated in cream, complete with their own kitchens (although a restaurant is expected later this year); the recently re-opened, chic Mandala Hotel (formerly the Madison Potsdamer Platz hotel) with its 166 suites, and Ku ‘Damm 101, Berlin’s answer to luxury accommodation with a touch of urban style.

Suite name: The Ritz-Carlton Suite Resort: The Ritz-Carlton, Berlin Size of accommodation: 210 sq m Cost per night: 5,000 Euros Who’s stayed there? Robbie Williams, Christopher Lee, Leonardo Di Caprio What makes it special? Standing just a short distance from what was formerly a section of The Berlin Wall The 2.260 sq.ft. Ritz-Carlton Suite offers a cosmopolitan experience with the ambiance of a private home and view to the vibrant cityscape of Europe’s most contemporary urban plaza, the Potsdamer Platz with his greenery of the Tiergarten, Berlin’s biggest inner-city park nearby. The Ritz-Carlton Suite at The Ritz-Carlton, Berlin The interior design of The Ritz-Carlton, Berlin was created by Cologne based Peter Silling. He, in turn, was inspired by the works of renowned Prussian architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel (1781-1841), whose architectural genius can still be viewed in many of Berlin’s most famous buildings. Furnishings chosen for The Ritz-Carlton bear marked resemblance to the German Imperial style which dominated the historic city for generations. It remains a strong influence even as Berlin gains a new reputation as a stylish capital city of contemporary innovation and design. The Ritz-Carlton Suite at The Ritz-Carlton, Berlin To further reflect the influence of Prussian architect Schinkel, each of the 302 guestrooms and suites as well as The Ritz-Carlton Suite at The Ritz-Carlton, Berlin is distinguished by original watercolors being created by Professor Markus Luepertz, a German artist highly noted for his 20th century neo-expressionism style. His works, entitled “Homage a Schinkel” come from the architect’s original design sketchbooks. Each of Luepertz’ copperplates is printed on hand-made paper, an original and unique tribute to one of the world’s most respected architects.
