Wilmina Hotel - Berlin
52.507034, 13.297451Overview
Boutique hotel in a former women's prison in Berlin
Architecture and History
Wilmina Hotel Berlin occupies a former women's prison, with original cell doors, heavy locks, and barred windows preserved throughout the property. The conversion earned the building the Architecture Prize Berlin 2023 and the German Sustainability Prize for Architecture 2022. Guests walk through metal walkways and past original grey doors with peepholes before entering bright, minimalist rooms.
Dining and Culinary Experiences
Wilmina Berlin operates its own in-house bakery that produces fresh sourdough bread daily for guests. The on-site Lovis Restaurant serves creative German-French cuisine using seasonal ingredients, with a tasting menu that includes a vegetarian option. Complimentary snacks and beverages are available throughout the day in the lounge, along with a self-serve kitchen stocked with fresh fruit and filtered water.
Wellness and Relaxation
The hotel has a seasonal outdoor rooftop pool and a sauna that can be booked for private use at no extra charge. A high-quality fitness center with modern equipment is open 24 hours a day. Guests can also use the spa lounge, participate in yoga classes, or borrow bicycles to explore the neighborhood.
Rooms and Accommodations
Every room at Wilmina Hotel includes COCO-MAT beds made from natural materials like coconut fiber and latex, with customisable pillow options including lavender pillows. Room types range from cozy double rooms (approximately 1.5 former prison cells in size) to spacious apartments with fully equipped kitchens and laundry facilities. The apartments are located in a separate new building adjacent to the main hotel, offering more privacy and living space.
