You normally think of Berlin when Germany comes to mind. But that’s just one city in a long string of many, many ancient and beautiful cities that make up the now unified German country. Ever considered Munich?
Well, as it turns out, you should because a pioneering lifestyle aparthotel has recently opened, the Schwan Locke aparthotel.
Very near the Theresienwiese, the site of Oktoberfest, Schwan Locke features 151 spacious, design-led studio apartments, as well as a complimentary co-working space, gym, coffee shop, retail space, leafy courtyard and craft cocktail bar.
The spaces of Schwan Locke are designed to be lived and existed in, rather than just visited and used. Their philosophy is that it makes each location attractive to a wide range of travellers from the leisure and business markets – for both long-, mid- and short-term stays.
Schwan Locke is home to a unique art collection, which draws inspiration from the pioneering women involved in the Werkbund movement – from photographer and sculptor Marianne Brandt to Lilly Reich who was on the board of directors. The collection also champions local talent, featuring vibrant artwork from designer and illustrator Veronika Grenzebach, graffiti artist Armin Kiss-Istok, and illustrator Tomomi Maezawa.
