Steigenberger Hotel Stadt Lörrach, Modern hotel and high-rise building in Lörrach, Germany
The Steigenberger Hotel Stadt Lörrach is a 63-metre-high tower with 20 storeys and a square footprint 23 metres on each side, completed in 2016 and opened on 1 June 2017. Its facade groups two floors into each visual band. It holds 178 rooms, including 27 superior rooms and four suites, plus two four-storey annexes with 38 studios and seven apartments. A fitness area occupies the 20th floor.
The site, long used as a fairground and car park called "Kinderspielplatz", was earmarked for a hotel in 2009. An investor bought the plot in spring 2014, the groundbreaking followed in September, and the hotel opened on 1 June 2017. After pandemic losses, the operator filed for insolvency in April 2021 and the Steigenberger name was dropped.
The building stands on the site of the former "Kinderspielplatz", long used as a fairground for Jahrmärkte and as a car park in Lörrach's centre. The hotel's name changed after the 2021 insolvency and operator switch, so it no longer carries the Steigenberger name. The ground-floor restaurant and the two four-storey annexes with 38 studios serve longer stays.
The tower stands just east of the Wiesentalbahn tracks, directly beside Lörrach's main railway station. A car park for nearly 100 vehicles and technical rooms occupy the underground levels. Ten meeting and seminar rooms covering 450 square metres sit on the first two floors, with a 130-square-metre event space; the fitness area is on the 20th floor.
The tower's square footprint measures 23 metres on each side, and its facade pairs two storeys into one visual band, so the 20 floors read as ten. Two four-storey annexes hold 38 studios and seven apartments for longer stays, forming a corner around an inner courtyard garden.
