The Hilton Munich Park has a new look by JOI-Design, which drew natural elements from the hotel’s surroundings in the Englischer Garten.
The property’s 484 guestrooms and suites feature a palette of warm earth and berry tones. The rooms are broken into three zones: a resting area with the bed; a working area with an oversized leather-wrapped frame, a desk that doubles as a vanity, a dresser, and the television; and a leisure area with a plush chaise lounge and three pendant lamps hung at different heights next to the sliding doors to the veranda.
Suites have a style that contrasts contemporary with traditional, with tone-on-tone wool rugs that pick up the tree branch motif.
The lobby has been given a new “human-scale” plan. The existing desk was split into two halves, and an overhead smoked oak panel inset with horizontal light strips closes off the conference level and makes the space more inviting. A lighting designer created a central light sculpture to hang from the ceiling.
Anodized metal balustrades separate living room seating from traffic areas. The lobby features an S-shaped sofa to allow for intimate groupings. Café tables with barstools near the pastry counter provide seating for a quick coffee. Throughout the lobby, panels of glass and mirrors have etchings of overlapping patterns of tree branches.
People’s Bar has a warm new contemporary look with abstract floral motifs in the carpet. Soft Champagne-colored leather and velvet get colorful accents from bright red cushions. Pendant lights hang over the smoked oak bar to individually illuminate each seat.
The 247-cover Tivoli Restaurant and Club, which overlooks the gardens, has a new focal point in the welcome area: a wardrobe in chocolate leather with leather-lined inset handles that both stores guests’ coats and hides the necessary technology and cabling. The oak wall panels are laser-cut with styled motifs of branches and birds. Oak pendant lights above the “captain’s table” draw inspiration from the wheel spokes of traditional Bavarian horse-drawn carriages.
The Marco Polo event space has a crisp, neutral color palette with new carpets, contemporary lighting and additional millwork details. In the Executive Lounge, a new carpet with splashes of crimson offsets pewter and cream leather chairs and artwork.
