Schlossgut Groß-Schwansee, Baroque manor hotel in Kalkhorst, Germany.
Schlossgut Groß-Schwansee is a baroque manor hotel featuring a white main house and modern park building that together contain 63 rooms. The accommodations include ten historical manor rooms and 53 contemporary units with balconies or terraces.
The estate was built in 1745 and retains its traditional baroque exterior with original architectural details intact. Over time, the property was preserved and adapted as a hotel while maintaining its historical character.
The manor rooms display different cultural influences, from maritime Japanese design to French styling, while incorporating regional German decorative elements.
The property sits about one hour from Hamburg and three hours from Berlin, with eight meeting spaces accommodating groups between 5 and 120 people. The grounds extend from the main buildings down toward the Bay of Lübeck shoreline.
The property connects to the Bay of Lübeck beach through a 300-meter lime tree avenue that creates a natural separation between the manor grounds and the waterfront. This tree-lined passage is a defining feature of the estate and shapes the approach to the hotel.
