The hotel has a restaurant, gourmet Lutter & Wegner Wein & Feinkost, run by Josef Laggner, and a comfortable bar, the Velvet Lounge.

HUGOS RESTAURANT 

Kammeier’s creations have been impressing diners since he took over the kitchen in the late nineties, with his seafood creations winning particular acclaim. The wine list will please even the most demanding buffs, and the views of the city are astounding. Located on the 14th floor of the Hotel InterContinental, Berlin vistas don’t come much better than this.

BEBEL BAR AND LOUNGE 

Rocco Forte’s Hotel de Rome is one of the city’s most sumptuous accommodation spots; it also houses one of its finest cocktail bars.
