The Accommodation
The Deluxe Suite on the ground floor is exceptionally and luxuriously furnished and suitable for up to two people. It is truly one of a kind: As a family, we extensively renovated the beautiful Art Nouveau Villa Weitmar, built in 1906, and created six unique apartments with great attention to detail and custom craftsmanship.

The extensive modernization included, among other things, replacing the wooden beam ceilings with reinforced concrete ceilings, installing a sound-insulated floor with underfloor heating, and adding custom-made wooden fixtures. The lime-cement plaster with lime filler, combined with a ceiling height of approximately four metres, ensures a pleasant and relaxing indoor climate. The aesthetic appeal of the reinforced concrete ceilings was preserved, and we restored them to exposed concrete finishes. The entire building was equipped with a sustainable heating system.

Your retreat in the Private Spa:
To ensure nothing stands in the way of your retreat in the Private Spa, soundproof windows shield you from noise and street sounds, and the frosted glass—activated at the touch of a button—provides ample privacy. The electric blackout shades ensure a restful sleep in the king-size double bed—day and night.

The highlight:
The apartment features a sauna from the world’s leading manufacturer, Klafs, available to you around the clock. The sauna is made of high-quality Scandinavian spruce and reaches temperatures of up to 100 degrees Celsius. To cool off, there’s a walk-in rain shower with a cold-water jet right next to the sauna.
For the ultimate wellness experience, you can run a bath and enjoy your favourite Netflix series in the freestanding designer bathtub in front of the fireplace.
