Berlin, 19th January 2023

It's hard to get any closer: with a symbolic ribbon-cutting ceremony, the IntercityHotel Berlin Airport BER opened directly on Willy-Brandt-Platz at Berlin Brandenburg Airport on 19 January 2023. The six-storey 3-star hotel offers guests from all over the world around 360 rooms, five meeting and conference rooms, a sauna and fitness area as well as a restaurant and hotel bar. Terminals 1 and 2 of BER Airport are within walking distance.

Christian Hentschel, mayor of the municipality of Schönefeld in Brandenburg, said on the occasion of the opening: "We are very pleased to welcome another H World International property directly at the airport with the IntercityHotel. The owner, Dietz AG, and the operator, H World International, are thus ensuring sustainable growth in the region and creating jobs in the immediate vicinity."

Dr Wolfgang Dietz, Managing Director of Dietz AG, adds: "For Dietz AG, the IntercityHotel is a sustainable investment in the region. For us, the Berlin-Brandenburg location and BER Airport are beacon projects for sustainable, regional construction with international appeal."

The new IntercityHotel with a gross floor area of around 14,000 square metres is the second hotel in the direct vicinity of the terminals, alongside the Steigenberger Hotel, and adds the 3-star category to the hotel offering at BER. Like the Steigenberger Airport Hotel, it is part of the H World International portfolio. Another IntercityHotel, the IntercityHotel Berlin-Brandenburg Airport, is also located near the airport. It is located not far from the station at BER Airport - Terminal 5 (Schönefeld).

Josef Dolp, Chief Operations Officer H World International: "Berlin-Brandenburg and the airport are immensely important locations for H World International. With a total of six hotels and further projects in the pipeline, we have a team in Berlin that is looking forward to welcoming business travellers and tourists from all over the world to the German capital. The IntercityHotel is ideal for pre- and post-travel overnight stays and stopovers for business travellers, as well as families."

Aletta von Massenbach, Chairwoman of the Management Board of Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg GmbH: "The new Intercityhotel is an asset for our airport. It means that our passengers can now choose from a range of accommodation options directly at BER. Willy-Brandt-Platz will also gain in urbanity and flair when more guests from all over the world stay there."

Mathias Rusch, General Manager IntercityHotel Berlin Brandenburg BER: "Berlin Brandenburg Airport is the beginning and the end of unforgettable journeys. With the new IntercityHotel, you are not only in the middle of the action, but also part of a community of international travellers. The whole team at the hotel is looking forward to welcoming guests to our hotel."
