The elegant pool area of Hotel Adlon Kempinski Berlin, which reopened some 28 years ago, has long been a cherished retreat for guests seeking rest and tranquillity. At the beginning of 2024, it closed for an extensive eight-month transformation.
The result is one of the most stylish and contemporary wellness sanctuaries in luxury hospitality: the new ADLON POOL. At its heart lies a striking swimming pool finished in sophisticated black marble-effect tiles, enhanced by a carefully choreographed lighting concept that evokes the shimmering atmosphere of the sea at dusk.
A true temple of relaxation has emerged—one that can also be experienced by non-resident guests.
