Radisson Collection Hotel reopens in Berlin with stunning new lobby and gastronomy concept

After a two-year closure following the AquaDome accident in December 2022, the Radisson Collection Hotel, Berlin has reopened its doors, unveiling a fully renovated interior and a new luxury hospitality experience. Located in the heart of the city, directly opposite Berlin Cathedral, the hotel introduces the ‘Living Tree’ lobby concept and a modern Greek restaurant, San Éna, setting new standards for upscale accommodation in the capital.

The centerpiece of the hotel’s transformation is the Living Tree, a 24-meter-high, 20-meter-wide vertical garden adorned with nearly 2,000 plants. Located in the 1,000-square-meter lobby, the lush installation provides an immersive natural ambiance, enhancing the indoor climate through an integrated irrigation system. A smart lighting concept allows the Living Tree to change its appearance throughout the day, creating a dynamic and welcoming atmosphere for guests.

Beyond the spectacular lobby, the hotel boasts 15 modern meeting rooms, fully redesigned to provide an elegant setting for events in Berlin-Mitte. Spanning 2,740 square meters across three floors, the event spaces include the DomLounge, a glass-roofed venue offering panoramic views over Berlin—ideal for conferences, meetings, and private celebrations.

The hotel’s culinary offering has also been reimagined, with the launch of San Éna, a restaurant specializing in modern Greek cuisine. During warmer months, the terrace on the banks of the Spree River is expected to become a vibrant social hub. Meanwhile, the hotel’s new spa and wellness area includes an indoor pool, a Finnish sauna, and a 24-hour fitness studio equipped with state-of-the-art training equipment.

The Radisson Collection Hotel, Berlin offers 427 luxurious rooms and suites, including Collection Premium rooms with stunning views of Berlin Cathedral, Junior Corner Suites, and the spacious Nikolai Suite, which spans over 100 square meters and features furnished balconies.

Marco Eichhorn, General Manager of the Radisson Collection Hotel, Berlin, expressed enthusiasm for the relaunch, stating: “We have created a unique hotel experience with passion, staying true to our motto: ‘Welcome to the Exceptional.’ The impressive Living Tree in our lobby and our new San Éna restaurant are just two of the many highlights that make our hotel truly special. A heartfelt thank you to our property owner, Union Investment, for their trust and commitment in bringing this exciting project to life.”

Martin Schaller, Head of Asset Management Intercontinental at Union Investment, also praised the relaunch, noting: “We congratulate the Radisson Hotel Group on reopening at this iconic Berlin location. We are delighted to have played a key role in shaping the hotel’s exciting new lobby and restaurant concept.”

With its bold redesign, innovative hospitality concepts, and prime city-center location, the Radisson Collection Hotel, Berlin is set to redefine luxury stays in the German capital, offering a one-of-a-kind experience for both business and leisure travelers.
