The Grand Esplanade Hotel is housed in a strikingly contemporary, Bauhaus-Corbusier-style building, with a white façade and a large triangular glass roof covering the drive. The spacious lobby is attractively appointed with pale grey polished tiles and Art Deco-style black leather seating running along both sides of it. There is also an adjoining lobby bar. Though well insulated, the 400 spacious guestrooms have floor to ceiling windows, which flood them with natural light, enhancing the soothing pastel décor and creating an airy ambience. All are clean and well maintained, as are the en suite bathrooms. The hotel offers a variety of dining options. Guests can welcome the day with a delicious breakfast at the “Elements” restaurant, famous for its fluffy pancakes and eggs, crisp bacon, rich pastries and freshly brewed coffee. A tranquil oasis of rich woods and warm colours, “Elements 2” restaurant is one of the finest Asian restaurants in Berlin and the perfect place to unwind at the end of the day. Located in the lobby, the “Ellipsis” lounge is a calm oasis with a charming atmosphere and the perfect place to unwind before and after an exciting day. There’s also “Harry’s New York Bar”, which allows you to step back to a time when the key elements for unforgettable nights were great drinks, great live piano music, and great friends.
