COSMO HOTEL BERLIN MITTE

Berlin is a city where life is as interesting and surprising, as it is comfortable and relaxing. The new Cosmo Hotel reflects just that dynamism. Cosmo is simultaneously a perfect sanctuary and starting point for those lifestyle-addicts and cosmopolitans who visit the German capital to drink of its rich cultural life, read its history from the diversity of its architecture, but at the end of the day want a comfortable and invigorating place to take a load off. The hotel is ideally situated between Alexanderplatz and Potsdamer Platz and just around the corner from the Friedrichstraße retail hub as well as the historic Unter den Linden.

Cosmo’s 84 guestrooms are beautiful expressions of warmth, with a cool edge of sophistication. Each, lined with either smooth parquet flooring or elegant carpeting, is sculpted by the crisp angles of the exquisitely designed furniture and adornments that highlight the welcomingly lit spaces. Shades of chocolate melting into slate, cream and robust mustards vary between each room, constructing an overall sensation of comfort and conviviality, that, when contrasted with the brilliant, floor to ceiling illumination and cool, sharp lines of the furniture, translate pure sophistication. Hallways leading to the guestrooms are spattered with indirect beams of light and each room number is projected from above – a stylish digital-doormat. Guests are led down the dim halls by glowing backlit panels at each end that illuminate graceful natural silhouettes.

Light and darkness, transparency and opacity, smooth curves juxtaposed with sharp edges – these are the nuts and bolts of the Cosmo Hotel. Spaces are partitioned with cool glass and shifting lights intended to ignite guests’ curiosity. Numerous, individualised lounge spaces are scattered throughout the hotel, welcoming guests in to partake in various luxuries with backlit glass doors and windows that open into dim hallways: guests can wander into relaxation chambers, smoking lounges, reading rooms and even a few places to enjoy a cocktail. Cosmo as well offers plentiful meeting points and office space for those guests who wish to use the hotel as a hub from which to conduct their business affairs. The exquisite restaurant and bar, also in shades of chocolate, slate and cream that are tinged with bright blues, yellows and oranges, offers an opportunity for guests to entertain their own guests if need be, or just to simply relax and enjoy the impeccable service and superb design.

COSMO Hotel Berlin Mitte was developed by GBI AG, a German real estate development company based in Munich. GBI AG specializes in the development of unique and modern hotels, residential, and commercial properties. The design concept of COSMO Hotel Berlin Mitte was created by the renowned architectural firm, GRAFT. GRAFT is known for its innovative and sustainable designs, often blending art, architecture, and technology. The hotel showcases a contemporary and urban design, featuring clean lines, minimalist furnishings, and a mix of industrial and natural materials. The interiors are characterized by a modern and sleek aesthetic, creating a stylish and comfortable atmosphere for guests. The developer and design team's focus on creating a unique and visually appealing space has positioned COSMO Hotel Berlin Mitte as a popular choice for visitors seeking a distinctive and modern hotel experience in Berlin.
