More Than a Decade: Redesign of the 25hours Hotel Bikini Berlin by studio aisslinger

At the beginning of July, the team at the 25hours Hotel Bikini Berlin celebrated the hotel's eleventh birthday in the City West with over 1,000 guests. But the anniversary wasn't the only reason to celebrate, because just in time for the "More than a decade" event, the renovation work that had been ongoing since November 2024 was completed. studio aisslinger was responsible for the further development of the design, just as it was eleven years ago. All 22 Large Urban and Large Jungle rooms were given a completely new look. In line with the changed room concept, the bed has been moved to the centre of the room and, thanks to its frontal orientation, now offers unique views of the Tiergarten or City West. The bathtubs still function as Bluetooth speakers. All Large Rooms also have their own library. This wooden capsule not only offers a cosy retreat and invites guests to read, relax and dream, it also underlines the 25hours Hotels' connection to all things analogue.

Berlin Hotel Market Spotlight

Berlin is at the top of the list of the world's favourite destinations for city breaks, both in Germany and internationally. The hotel landscape is correspondingly lively - increasingly sustainable and with numerous modern, new and individual concepts.

After expecting a slight revival in the hotel investment market at the beginning of the year, our latest Hotel Market Spotlight for Berlin now looks at the hotel performance itself.

How have profits and revenues developed within a year (H1 2024 vs. H1 2023)? Have operating costs and expenses increased? And what proportion do wage and labour costs account for? Here are the key findings:

Spotlights

• Despite considerable cost pressure, the full-service branded hotels in Berlin recorded rising profits in the first half of 2024.
• The occupancy rate reached 71% in the first half of 2024, up from 68% in H1 2023.
• While utility costs fell by 23%, the overall operating expenses increased by 13%. Labor costs recorded the strongest growth of 10% compared to the previous year.
• Nevertheless, thanks to 4% revenue growth, the GOP (gross operating profit) per available room rose by 2%.

Christine Mayer, Partner, Valuation & Advisory Services:

'The revenue of hotels in Berlin continues to recover, underpinned by Berlin’s popularity as a tourism and business destination. It is good to see that this also translates into improved nominal profits despite the cost pressures. A good sign for hotel investors and operators.’
