Glass visits the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Europe’s hippest capital

PERCHED in an enviable location on Potsdamer Platz in Berlin’s centre is the elegant and well- connected Grand Hyatt. It sits cheek by jowl with art galleries and boutiques and is only a stone’s throw from some of the city’s main attractions, including Brandenburg Gate, the Reichstag and numerous world-class museums.

The Tiergarten, Berlin’s green lung, is also nearby for a quick escape from the city’s bustle. The Grand Hyatt ’s central location makes it close to several transport links, meaning that day trips to sights further afield, such as the grandiose Charlottenburg Palace, can be made with ease.

The Maybach Suite

The hotel’s large rooms boast plush fittings, fantastic views of the city and contain all the mod cons expected of a five-star luxury hotel. Perched on top of the hotel is a stylish, well-serviced spa with a pool and jacuzzi that boast even better city views than the bedrooms. Every inch of the hotel has been spared no expense. There is even electric vehicle charging available on site.

The Vox restaurant is most definitely in step with Berlin’s reputation as a culinary gem and has been excelling in modern, Asian-influenced cuisine and authentic sushi since the late 1990s. Packed most nights, it is definitely on the gastronomic radar of Berlin’s well-heeled, and dining in the glow of the open show kitchen is a treat.

Next door, the Vox bar serves up more than 150 fine whiskies, many of which are limited editions, while the Smoker’s Lounge stocks Cuban cigars. For more local fare, the Tizian Lounge excels in German staples such as Wiener Schnitzel and Berlin Currywurst served in a more relaxed atmosphere, perfect for a business lunch.

If you are after a stylish, luxuriant stay in the German capital, the Grand Hyatt is highly recommended. It is the perfect location at any time of the year and will definitely not disappoint.
