your quiet oasis in Darmstadt
After a day full of appointments or experiences, it's good to relax and unwind. Our wellness area offers you the perfect setting for this: manageable, cozy, and focused on the essentials.
Enjoy the warmth of the sauna or gently relax in the infrared cabin. In the relaxation room, you will find the peace and quiet that is often lacking after a busy day. Whether you want to switch off, recharge your batteries, or just pause for a few minutes, you can do so effortlessly here.
Our wellness area is deliberately small, creating a particularly personal atmosphere. It is the ideal place for a short break and makes your stay in the science city of Darmstadt completely relaxing.
Culinary delights with a view of the countryside
The day begins with a generous breakfast buffet at the Herrngarten restaurant. Fresh pastries, fruit, egg dishes, and savory specialties ensure that there is something for every taste. As soon as the sun shines, the large terrace invites you to enjoy your first coffee with a view of the historic Herrngarten. For those who want to savor it even more, there is even the option of booking breakfast as an “all you can eat & drink” option.
In the evening, the Moller restaurant and bar opens its doors for you. Here, varied dishes meet a stylish ambience that invites you to linger. Whether it's a relaxed dinner, a glass of wine, or a cocktail at the bar – this is a wonderful way to round off the day.
And for sports fans, Moller offers an additional special highlight: if you haven't managed to get tickets for the nearby stadium, you can watch the Champions League, selected Bundesliga matches, and the games of SV Darmstadt 98 in a convivial atmosphere on the big screen. Culinary delights and a lively atmosphere go hand in hand here.
Spaces for inspiration and success –

Whether you are planning a small meeting or a conference with more than two hundred guests, the Welcome Hotel Darmstadt offers the perfect setting. Five modern rooms offer plenty of natural light, high ceilings, and flexible design options. They can be combined and adapted to your event as required.
A particular advantage is the direct connection to the darmstadtium congress center. An underground passageway takes you to one of Germany's most modern conference venues in just a few steps, where you can benefit from almost unlimited possibilities for large events.
Our experienced team will take care of everything else so that you can concentrate fully on your content: from technical equipment and suitable seating to refreshments and catering. The result is events that are professionally organized yet still leave room for personal encounters.

Explore Darmstadt –
Art Nouveau, science, and urban nature
Darmstadt is a city that harmoniously combines contrasts. Historic residential buildings meet world-class Art Nouveau architecture, and urban vibrancy blends with green oases. Walks through the nearby Herrngarten, a visit to the botanical garden, or an afternoon at the popular Großer Woog swimming lake show the city from its relaxed side.
A cultural highlight is the Mathildenhöhe, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most important Art Nouveau ensembles in Europe. Between the Wedding Tower, artists' houses, and exhibitions, the city's creative tradition is still alive today. Also worth seeing are the Residenzschloss palace with the neighboring palace museum and the Hessian State Museum, which combines art, natural history, and history under one roof.
Unusual architecture also characterizes Darmstadt: the Waldspirale by the artist Hundertwasser attracts everyone's attention with its colorful facades and turrets. If you want to venture further afield, you will discover a very special kind of World Heritage Site in the Messel Pit. The fossil site is considered one of the most important windows into prehistoric times.
Whether culture, nature, or architecture, Darmstadt offers you a variety of impressions that you can combine as you wish.
