Hotel Freigeist Göttingen Opens

Opened July 1 in the central German city of Göttingen, Hotel Freigeist Göttingen is a hive of creativity and inclusion. Conceived by hotelier Georg Rosentreter, the 118-room property is rooted in the city's legacy as a place for academics, philosophers, and radical freethinkers. Here in the district of Groner Tor, the newly built property is embodying the spirit of cultural vibrancy one would expect from a thriving student town. Guests will be enchanted by an abundance of green areas that link the hotel to the cultural sector—which includes a museum, the university, and its soon-to-open ''Forum Wissen'' (Knowledge Forum). At Hotel Freigeist Göttingen guests are immersed in a world of ash wood, rich coppers, light gray, and beige while the Japanese-South American restaurant 'Intuu', a sushi bar, and a chef's table within an open kitchen set a stunning gastronomic tone.
