Project description
After a construction period of only twelve months, the Atlantic Congress Hotel Essen welcomed its first guests on January 1, 2010. The initial situation for the new hotel building designed by PLAN FORWARD was the requirement to increase the range of centrally located and high-quality overnight accommodation and conference facilities, both for visitors and organizers of Messe Essen as well as the Grugahalle, and for the city of Essen as a whole.
Designed as four-star superior category, the new hotel is located adjacent to the Grugapark and in the immediate vicinity of the listed Grugahalle and the exhibition halls of Messe Essen.
The hotel offers around 250 rooms spread over six floors, a wellness and spa area on the top floor and reception, restaurant and conference rooms on the ground floor.
