Hotel de Rome
Monumental historic architecture meets restrained contemporary luxury. Think serious stone-and-marble grandeur with magenta urns and neon art at the entrance — weighty but not stuffy. The palette runs to reds, blues, and stone neutrals, with green and gold reserved for the spa's vault spaces.
Request a Premier Room or Grand Premier Room for direct Bebelplatz views — worth the upgrade for the light and high ceilings.
Why It Matters
The only Berlin hotel set in a restored 19th-century bank building listed as a heritage landmark. The bank's main hall is now a glass-topped Grand Ballroom, the original jewellery vault is The Spa, and the bank directors' offices are specialty suites. After WWII the building served as the GDR's state bank — layers of history that most hotels can only dream about.
A converted 1889 Dresdner Bank headquarters sitting right on Bebelplatz in Berlin's Mitte district. The building has serious bones: neo-Renaissance stone façade, original oak-paneled executive offices, and a former jewel vault that's now home to Berlin's longest hotel pool. Opened as a hotel in 2006 after a meticulous restoration, it's part of the Rocco Forte collection and belongs to The Leading Hotels of the World. History isn't just a talking point here — one of the specialty suites still has WWII bullet and grenade fragments embedded in its original wood paneling.
Where You'll Stay
13 room types available
Deluxe Room
38–40 sqm with generous seating — slightly larger than the Superior with the same city-or-courtyard view choice. Sleeps up to three with rollaway on request.
King or Twin · 39 sqm
Deluxe Room with Balcony
40 sqm with a private balcony overlooking either the courtyard or St. Hedwig's Cathedral. Same quality as the Deluxe but with outdoor space — a real differentiator in a city-center hotel.
King or Twin · 40 sqmGrand Premier Room
50 sqm studio with large windows directly overlooking Bebelplatz. The biggest non-suite footprint with city-landmark views. Good for longer stays where you want space and a prime view without going full suite.
King or Twin · 50 sqmGrand Room
45–50 sqm studio-style layout combining a seating area and king bed in one open space — works well for extended stays. City or courtyard views. Includes exclusive suite services: in-suite check-in, breakfast in-suite or in the restaurant, concierge, and packing service.
King or Twin · 47 sqm
Historic Bankers Suite
85 sqm former bank conference room with high ceilings, original oak paneling, and parquet floors. There's even a secret compartment near the window overlooking St. Hedwig's Cathedral. One of the most atmospheric rooms in the building.
King or Twin · 85 sqmHistoric Behren Suite
63 sqm with original parquet floors, wood paneling, and a separate living area. Named after the street the hotel sits on. City views throughout. The living area makes it practical for small meetings or entertaining.
King or Twin · 63 sqmHistoric Grand Room
62 sqm former bank executive office with original wood paneling intact. The marble bathroom is spectacular, and the Bebelplatz-and-St. Hedwig's Cathedral view is among the best in the hotel. A taste of the specialty suite experience at a slightly more accessible size.
King or Twin · 62 sqmHumboldt Suite
90 sqm with an original 19th-century oak ceiling and a grand marble bathroom with a window looking directly onto Bebelplatz and Humboldt University. Has a dining table for four and a guest powder room — laid out for entertaining. Available as two bedrooms.

At 200 sqm, this is the largest room in the hotel. Features a dining room with kitchenette, separate service entrance, guest bathroom, and a private balcony running the full width of the suite with direct Bebelplatz views. Requires calling to book.
