Festive reopening of the Hotel Taschenbergpalais Kempinski Dresden
- Destination News
After a year of renovation, the Hotel Taschenbergpalais Kempinski was ceremoniously reopened yesterday. Among the guests were numerous politicians, representatives of the owners, Kempinksi S.A., as well as invited friends of the hotel from all areas of society.
Under the motto "History retold", the famous 18th century building with its historical details was redesigned with great care and attention to detail, offering comfort and state-of-the-art technology for contemporary, understated luxury. From now on, guests will have the unique opportunity to experience Dresden once again in all its splendour and beauty. Even at first glance, the light-flooded lobby with its unusual textile wallpaper, warm sandstone floors and two cosy lounge areas is predestined to become the city's most sought-after meeting place.
The newly designed 180 rooms and 31 suites also impress with their elegant design and set new standards for contemporary luxury with refined details. Hand-picked furniture and selected works of art give each room an individual touch, creating an exclusive yet cosy atmosphere. Historical elements have also been incorporated into the colour scheme and placed in a new context. The various suites, which are furnished with fine works of art and contemporary national and international art treasures, are a particular highlight. Sustainable and allergy-friendly building materials played a central role in the extensive renovation.
In terms of gastronomy, the redesigned Hotel Taschenbergpalais boasts several highlights. The newly designed restaurant "Das Palais" offers a wide selection of local specialities as well as international classics. The newly created "Private - Dining - Room" is ideal for individual occasions. In the "Kastenmeiers" restaurant, gourmet chef Gerd Kastenmeier provides his guests with refined fish dishes. The maritime offering is complemented by the restaurant's own sushi and oyster bar. The reopening of the Hotel Taschenberg Palais Kempinski will not only "retell the history" of the hotel and the city, but also create a magical place where people from all over the world can rediscover and experience their own personal stories in an environment full of elegance, zeitgeist and luxury.
"We are delighted to be reopening this beautiful hotel, which is steeped in tradition, and to be giving Dresdeners back "their living room". We are sure that the symbiosis of contemporary luxury and tradition that we have created with the redesign will inspire Dresdeners, our regular guests and national and international guests, because history is preserved here and at the same time retold," said Marten Schwass, Managing Director of the hotel, at the opening.
