Welcome Hotel
Paderborn

Paderborn, the second-largest city in the East Westphalia-Lippe region, is celebrated for its dynamic energy and stunning beauty. The name Paderborn reflects its natural origins, combining the River Pader with "Born," an old German word meaning the source of a river. The Pader springs to life from over 200 sources, running through the city and infusing it with vitality.

Our hotel is just a short, scenic stroll from the city centre along the tranquil River Pader. We offer rooms with bright, contemporary designs, perfect for a comfortable stay.
