IntercityHotel Karlsruhe is operated by Deutsche Hospitality as a leaseholder. The property is owned by the project company Karlsruhe Victor-Gollancz-Str. Baufeld Hotel GmbH & Co KG. The project was managed by the project development company Qcoon Real Estate GmbH.
Denis Hüttig, Senior Vice President Operations at Deutsche Hospitality said: "Karlsruhe is an important business hub and university city, not to mention a convenient crossroads at the intersection of international transport routes. This makes the city an attractive location for us to continue to grow our IntercityHotel brand. Our guests can look forward to a young, urban hotel in the heart of the city – only 200 meters from Karlsruhe central railway station and thus with optimum access to the city's transport network and environs. A big word of thanks goes out to our partners for the excellent collaboration."
Marco Daedelow, Managing Director of the project development company Qcoon Real Estate GmbH, added: "Today's opening of the IntercityHotel Karlsruhe is an important milestone in the realization of KA DREI. We are very pleased that the hotel is opening its doors. Visitors from all over the world will now find new and attractive overnight accommodations. Leasing of the office space in KA DREI is also progressing for the planned completion of the offices at the end of 2023. KA DREI meets modern requirements for sustainable construction and will receive the Gold rating level in the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification process. We are delighted to be able to give the Karlsruhe station district a further modernization boost with KA DREI."
Nikolaus Kunz, General Manager of the IntercityHotel Karlsruhe, commented: "Me and my team look forward to welcoming guests to our new IntercityHotel Karlsruhe. The city has welcomed us with open arms – and we would like to do the same for our guests as well as be a valued host and partner in the region. It is also a great personal honour for me to tackle this new role in my home region and to establish the IntercityHotel brand in Karlsruhe."
