Bookable now for stays as of October 2, 2017. Inside a former prison for radical thinkers riding the wave of liberalism that spread across Europe after the French Revolution, Hotel Liberty encourages guests to step back and appreciate the notion of freedom through fine cuisine, spacious rooms, and an emphasis on shared experiences. Set in the German city of Offenburg, just over the French border, the property is home to the fine dining grill restaurant Wasser&Brot—a reference to the inmates’ typical diet of “water and bread” in previous times. Today, this standout eatery serves contemporary French cuisine under Michelin-starred chef Jeremy Biasiol, while the Mezzanine Floor & Lounge offers locally inspired tapas and high tea. Drastically different from the prison cells they once were, the 38 rooms and suites feature oak floors, distressed leather, and handcrafted furnishings by Knoblauch and local craftspeople, while urban gardening on the rooftop is a subtle nod to the building’s history as a place of communal activity. Add a rooftop terrace with a dining table, a library, the La Cave wine space with a cloister table, and meeting spaces for up to 25 people, and Hotel Liberty becomes a place to escape to, not from.
The 38 rooms and suites range from the 17-to-24-square-meter Classic Room to the 73-square-meter Roof Suite, and all feature a king-size bed and a bathroom with a shower. The 39-to-46-square-meter Junior Suites, the Roof Suite, and many of the Executive Rooms—which span between 22 and 29 square meters—offer a shower and a bathtub, while the Roof Suite also plays host to a lounge and dining area.
Furnishings range from time-worn leather sofas to retro-technological tables, while a neutral color scheme doesn’t divert attention from the rich interior architectural elements.
Structurally designed to make escape impossible, this former prison now charms with a deep red sandstone exterior, an open layout, and interiors of oak floors and steel doors.
