Design Hotels

Design Hotels GmbH represents and markets a curated selection of 300+ independent hotels in over 60 countries across the globe. More than a collection of hotels, the company is a collection of stories.

Since 1993, we’ve been crafting a portfolio that reflects the vision of independent hoteliers—or “Originals”—with a passion for culturally-rooted hospitality and cutting-edge design and architecture.

Every single hotel was carefully selected based on a range of criteria to guarantee guests a unique hotel experience at the best rates with every stay.

From the pioneering boutique hotels of New York, Paris, and London, to the rising stars of Shanghai, Mexico City, and Nairobi, to remote mountaintops, hidden beaches, and off-the-beaten-path escapes, each independent hotel in our hand-picked collection is a wholly unique creative expression, steeped in the history, culture, and the nature of its environment.
