Hotel Liberty

Hotel Liberty Opening in the Black Forest

For a region renowned for its wine culture, it's fitting that the annual harvest in the sun-dappled vineyards surrounding Offenburg will coincide with the rebirth of another of the area"s cultural landmarks. Opening September 30 and set just outside the city walls of Offenburg"s old town, Hotel Liberty is the ideal base from which to explore the historic city and the world-famous Black Forest. Built in the mid-19th century and defined by Baroque half-timbered and gabled townhouses, Hotel Liberty was once a prison is now a stunning hotel that embodies a unique brand of quirky sophistication, as well as a passion for food and exemplary service. 

Hotel Liberty"s 38 rooms and suites are situated across two buildings dating from the 1840s and joined by a contemporary glass box. Its former incarnation as a jail for the city of Offenburg came to an end in 2009, when it was transformed into the hotel that will be led by general manager Marc Aeberhard and his team as of Autumn 2017. The hotel"s design has been conceptualized to reference the building"s heritage while capturing the zeitgeist of modern-day Baden-Württemberg. The result is warm and welcoming—the latter sentiment reinforced by the hotel"s one-stop butler service—with wide, light-filled corridors, distressed leather furnishings, and 10-meter-high glass façades softening the well-worn stonework.
