<strong>COMMON</strong>//<strong>SPRING</strong> <strong>2017</strong>//<br />

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA<br />

so it stays true to aesthetics. The style is<br />

in keeping with the new breed of young,<br />

wealthy and fashionable. The bedrooms<br />

are hyper-stylized, the bathroom is<br />

spacious and immaculate and the<br />

restaurants, well the restaurant received<br />

its Michelin star in 2016. Go figure.<br />

There are also cosy corners for guests to<br />

enjoy their hot cuppa so it doesn’t feel<br />

too away from home. Think of it as the<br />

home you wish you had. The atmosphere<br />

retains an air of modern and luxury, but is<br />

by no means stuffy. Nothing about<br />

andel’s by Vienna House Berlin takes<br />

itself too seriously. There are playful<br />

design touches around every corner,<br />

such as the huge art piece in the lobby<br />

masquerading as the front office,<br />

There is a whole menu of cosmetic and<br />

massage treatments to revive and<br />

replenish, while an in-house<br />

physiotherapist can get to work on any<br />

knots formed during those long hours<br />

attending conferences. The convivial<br />

spaces look and feel like a trendy private<br />

member’s club - there’s an atmospheric<br />

Skybar with a panoramic view of Berlin<br />

for early evening cocktails, executive<br />

lounge with private access, a Michelinstarred<br />

restaurant for foodies and a<br />

traditional cigar lounge for an afterdinner<br />

Old Fashioned.<br />

Food<br />

There are three choices on offer at<br />

andel’s by Vienna House Berlin. Enjoy all<br />

the richness and diversity of <strong>Europe</strong>an<br />

cuisine at Brasserie Oscar’s. Try the<br />

quiches, salads and delicious desserts. As<br />

well as meat and seasonal vegetables,<br />

you can also enjoy fish and seafood<br />

grilled right in front of you in the open<br />

kitchen. For breakfast, start the day with<br />

crunchy cereals, fresh fruit and<br />

homemade jams, eggs, smoked fish, and<br />

hearty hams and cheeses at the aptly<br />
