Life is Grand…Marcel Wanders designs Kameha Grand

Set on the banks of the Rhine, Bonn’s newest five-start design hotel is the Kameha Grand, with interiors designed by Marcel Wanders.  The hotel enjoys views of the Rhine and Rheinaue rivers, as well as the Siebengebirge national park. According to Wanders: “The Kameha Grand Bonn unites the intimacy of the Rhine landscape with the dynamism [of] a conference center. The building is clad in glass – the challenge was to retain openness while creating a warm and intimate space…”

Wanders continues, “A hotel should entertain, inspire and stimulate, so it needs a design that supports these qualities. We wanted to give the guest a pure five-star feeling by creating a space full of surprises and beauty.”

The Kameha Grand was conceived as “one of the largest geothermal facilities in Europe,” storing the Rhine Valley’s summertime heat for the winter, and the winter’s cold for the summer. As a result, the Kameha Grand is largely emission-free, and not reliant upon fossil fuels.

Kameha Grand Bonn offers 254 rooms (192 rooms and 62 suites, 2 restaurants, 4 bars/lounges, spas, fitness centers, event and conference rooms, and more). It is scheduled to open this fall.
