Marriott International’s Luxury Collection brand has made a grand debut in Germany with the opening of Koenigshof, a Luxury Collection Hotel, in Munich. This elegant new addition is located in the heart of the city at the historic Stachus Square, seamlessly blending modern luxury with local Bavarian charm.

Designed by the renowned Nieto Sobejano Architects and Landau + Kindelbacher, Koenigshof captures Munich's rich heritage while offering a fresh, contemporary aesthetic. The hotel's striking design features include louvered structures, large gold walls, and an impressive atrium that connects the interior to the bustling Stachus Square, embodying a concept of "Stachus Serenity."

Koenigshof boasts 106 beautifully appointed guest rooms and suites. Each room showcases curated artworks by local Bavarian artists, dark wood-paneled walls, neutral-toned fabrics, and floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning city views. The rooms also offer unique local touches such as welcome cards by Munich designer Alexandra von Frankenberg, a custom Koenigshof fragrance, and the exclusive “Munich Serenity” tea crafted in collaboration with Samova Tea. Modern amenities include Byredo toiletries, Nespresso machines, Dyson Supersonic hairdryers, and Bose Bluetooth speakers.

The highlight is the 250-square-meter split-level Presidential Suite, the largest in Munich. This suite features a private sauna, a pool with massage jets, and a private spa, providing guests with an ultimate luxury experience.

Dining at Koenigshof is an experience in itself, with three distinct culinary destinations. The ninth-floor Greta Oto Munich, a Latin American restaurant led by Peruvian chef Michael Cánepa, offers panoramic city views and a vibrant atmosphere that transitions into a club-like scene on weekends. Guests can enjoy Amazonian cocktails at the adjacent bar or on the rooftop terrace.

The Green is a serene lounge serving local delicacies, including the specially crafted Koenigshof tea and the signature “Koenigshof-Torte,” a unique take on the Bavarian Prinzregententorte. The Gold lounge on the third floor offers a tranquil space to unwind with a curated selection of books and artwork, complemented by stunning views of the city and the Bavarian Alps.

Koenigshof provides exceptional spaces for private events. The View on the ninth floor accommodates up to 50 guests and features a private bar, lounge, and terrace with breathtaking city and mountain views. For more intimate gatherings, The Studio on the third floor offers a cozy setting for up to 12 guests.

Guests can also immerse themselves in local culture through guided tours of Munich, led by the hotel's concierge. These tours include visits to Viktualienmarkt, where guests can sample traditional Bavarian products and exclusive local foods.

The opening of Koenigshof marks a significant milestone for The Luxury Collection, bringing its unique ethos and enriching experiences to Germany. “This property embodies the tapestry of Munich's cosmopolitan culture,” says Philipp Weghmann, Vice President and Global Brand Leader of The Luxury Collection. “We are thrilled to offer guests an unparalleled blend of luxury hospitality and local flair.”

Helen Leighton, Vice President, Luxury Brands, Europe, Middle East, and Africa, Marriott International, adds, “Munich is a dynamic and artistic city, making it a natural fit for The Luxury Collection. We look forward to welcoming global explorers to this enchanting destination.”

Atmosphere Core has introduced its fourth brand, ONE Atmosphere, marking its entry into the extended-stay space. The new brand is designed for modern travellers who prefer a flexible lifestyle, one that combines the comfort of home, the structure of a workspace, and the convenience of hotel services.

ONE Atmosphere will offer fully serviced apartments that bring together spacious layouts, branded amenities, seamless support and design-led interiors. These spaces aim to serve today’s work–live–travel pattern, giving guests a place that adapts to different routines and longer stays.

Speaking about the launch, Mr. Salil Panigrahi, Managing Director, Atmosphere Core, said, “As travel becomes more fluid and work becomes borderless, guests expect more than a hotel room, they expect a lifestyle solution, ONE Atmosphere is designed to meet this shift by offering a reliable model of flexible living that blends the warmth of home with the precision of hospitality.”

The design philosophy will focus on calm materials, efficient layouts and local art, creating warm and intuitive environments across locations. Each apartment will feel residential, supported quietly by hotel-style services in the background.

Built for long stays, relocations, holidays and hybrid travel, the brand will deliver a consistent ‘ONE Experience’, supported by a wide range of work, leisure and convenience amenities under the ‘ONE Promise’.

Highlighting the growth opportunity, Mr. Sandeep Ahuja, Managing Director, ONE Atmosphere, said the segment is expanding quickly but remains fragmented. He added that the brand aims to set a strong global benchmark by combining scale with dependable, high-quality experiences, drawing from Atmosphere Core’s proven operational strengths in the Maldives.

The upcoming pipeline includes urban, metropolitan and leisure destinations across South Asia, Southeast Asia and the Gulf, with more international markets being evaluated for future expansion.

Della Resorts & Adventure has unveiled its Christmas Festive Package for 2025, bringing the holiday season alive in a way that feels warm, thoughtful and pleasantly personal. The package offers a two-night stay, available for either 24–25 or 25–26 December, giving guests a simple but memorable festive escape.

The experience is designed around meaningful moments rather than extravagance, a stay that feels slow and unhurried, mornings that ease into a relaxed breakfast and an Adventure Day Pass that brings a playful spirit to the holiday. Guests can enjoy The Vegas Noelat, the resort’s annual Christmas production, and begin their evening at Café 24 with festive cocktails or mocktails that set the mood just right.

A Christmas Brunch becomes the highlight of the day, and every guest leaves with a traditional pudding, a nostalgic touch that adds to the charm of the celebration.

Children have their own world of December cheer with gingerbread decorating, a Santa Meet-and-Greet and curated activities designed just for them. For adults, the experience sits between a refreshing getaway and a soft festive reset, celebratory without being loud, joyful without being predictable.

The package is ideal for anyone wanting to step away from the city’s usual December rush and spend the holiday in a setting that feels warm, relaxed and a little extra special.
