The Hotel Savoy Berlin
Opened in 1929, the Hotel Savoy Berlin lies just a few minutes’ walk from the busy Kurfürstendamm, Berlin’s famous elegant promenade. Celebrities like Maria Callas, Romy Schneider, Greta Garbo, Helmut Newton and the famous German writer Thomas Mann were regular guests. They all valued the hotel’s atmosphere and unobtrusive service.

In 1951 the only surviving grandchild of the Kempinski family laid the foundation stone for a new hotel. It was one of the first major investments in post-War Berlin. In doing so, he breathed new life into his family’s property at Kurfürstendamm 27. In 1952 at the hotel opening, a local newspaper printed the headline, “Kempinski means Berlin is returning.”
