25hours Hotel Bikini Berlin
Berlin, Germany
Hotels
40 Budapester Str., Berlin 10787, Germany
Built in the 1950s by the architects Paul Schwebes and Hans Schoszberger, the so-called Bikini House was the architectural expression of a new attitude to life hallmarked by dynamism, freedom, optimism and consumerism. This architecture – twinned with the building’s unique location – also gives Bikini Berlin its identity. With its 149 rooms, the 25hours Hotel Bikini Berlin forms part of the building complex, housed in the detached Kleines Hochhaus – the smaller of two high-rises – by the so-called Elephant Gate of Berlin Zoo. Between Memorial Church and Kurfürstendamm on the one hand and the green oasis of Tiergarten park and Berlin Zoo on the other, the hotel’s location and the architecture also inspired the interior design by studio aisslinger.

Q&A
How does the design of your space (or an element of the design) impact the experiences people have there?
"The storytelling draws the visitor into a very special urban-jungle experience. The hang-out area with BLESS-manufactured hammocks and view over the zoo, the very urban Bakery with coffee to go, the room’s material and lay-out and, of course, the monkey bar and the neni restaurant with flying plants and jungle atmosphere make every trip to the 25hours Hotel „Bikini“ special."
Q&A
What is the interior design style of your space?
"The Urban-Jungle Leitmotiv guided guided studio aisslinger’s work. In its typical collage style, the team headed by Werner Aisslinger did not sight an all-encompassing monochrome look, but a mixture of vintage, flea-market, classics and archetypical new design; the result is a grown mishmash, turning the heterogeneity of different parts into a vibrant and inspiring atmosphere. Straddling nature and culture the 25hours Hotel „Bikini“ mirrors the Urban Jungle of Berlin center."
Q&A
What Custom/Original Element do your guests notice most often? What do they say about it?
"The reception counter, made of tiles that are used in the Alexanderplatz subway station as well. A visual, haptic link between the hotel and its city."
