Meininger Cologne

The Meininger Hotel in Cologne seamlessly integrates three distinctive themes of the city: Art Trade/Media, Cologne Carnival, and Love is Everywhere. These themes reflect the culture and spirit of Cologne, creating a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere.

The Art Trade/Media theme celebrates Cologne's role as a hub for art and media. Design elements like artfully crafted bed headboards and room numbers displayed on cassette tapes evoke the era of analog media. Hallways are adorned with test pattern wallpaper, offering a nostalgic nod to media history, while partitions in the dining area showcase information about local artists and cultural highlights.

The Cologne Carnival, a cornerstone of the city's identity, is brought to life in the hotel through cheerful confetti motifs that appear on walls, floors, and even in the bathrooms. Glass walls and lights feature popular carnival songs, spreading a festive mood throughout the space.

The Love is Everywhere theme makes a powerful statement of love and inclusion. A striking curtain displays kissing people, forming the phrase "Love is Everywhere"—a central design element that emphasizes the message of love and acceptance. Rainbow motifs in carpets and room numbers further highlight the hotel's commitment to diversity and inclusivity.

By creatively blending these themes, the Meininger Hotel in Cologne offers a unique, culturally rich atmosphere that captures the lively and diverse character of the city, providing guests with an unforgettable experience.
