Six hotels are written down here because the interior work belongs to the house rather than to a standard fitting scheme. Four stand in city centres, one sits beside a lake in the German foothills, and one occupies an older frontage in Verona. Each entry says what the source confirms and stops there.
Hôtel Bienvenue
Paris, France
Rue Châteaudun runs through the ninth arrondissement of Paris, and this house stands on a quiet side street off it. The building is an ordinary Parisian one from the nineteenth century, and the interiors were drawn for it rather than bought as a set. Patterned fabric, painted panelling and tiled floors carry through the ground floor and up the stair.
Rooms sit above a ground floor that holds the reception, a sitting room and a small glazed court used for breakfast. The house is not large, and circulation is the original stair with a lift added later. Colour changes from floor to floor, so two rooms of the same size can look unalike. Some rooms face the inner court.
Ask the house which rooms face the street and which face the court, since noise differs between them. Ask whether the lift reaches every floor, and whether luggage can be held before check-in. If a specific decorative scheme matters to you, name it in the message rather than assuming it.

Hotel Am Konzerthaus
Vienna, Austria
The house occupies a corner building of the turn of the century in the third district of Vienna, close to the Konzerthaus that gives it its name. Public rooms carry graphic work and pattern applied throughout, and the frontage keeps its original proportions. The Stadtpark and the ring road lie within a short walk of the entrance.
Behind the frontage the plan is a courtyard one, with rooms on several floors reached from a central stair and lift. A breakfast room, a bar and a small meeting room occupy the ground floor. Some rooms look onto the street and others onto the inner court, and window sizes vary with the original structure.
Confirm which floor a room sits on and whether it faces the court, since the difference is audible. Ask about early arrival, storage and the times the breakfast room is open. If you need a quiet room during a concert season, say so directly when you write.

Nimb Hotel
Copenhagen, Denmark
Built in 1909 in a Moorish manner, this white building stands inside Tivoli Gardens in central Copenhagen. It began as a garden pavilion and now holds rooms above restaurants and function rooms. Domes and arched openings survive on the frontage, and several of the rooms look directly over the gardens and their trees rather than onto a city street.
The interior keeps large public rooms on the lower floors, with dining rooms, a bar and halls used for events. Guest rooms sit above them and vary in size, because the original plan was never drawn for bedrooms. Access to the gardens and their opening times are set by Tivoli and not by the hotel alone.
Ask how garden access works during your dates, since Tivoli keeps its own calendar and closes between seasons. Confirm which rooms face the gardens and whether evening sound reaches them. Ask about arrival on foot with luggage, as the entrance sits inside the garden grounds.

Miss Clara by Nobis
Stockholm, Sweden
A school for girls occupied this Stockholm building from 1910, and the Jugend frontage on Sveavägen has been kept. The house is now part of the Nobis group and holds rooms above a restaurant and bar. Timber panelling, terrazzo and the original stair remain in the public rooms on the lower floors, alongside fittings drawn for the house.
Guest rooms follow the old classroom bays, so their proportions are tall rather than deep. The ground floor holds a restaurant open to the street, a bar and reception. Lifts and a stair serve the upper floors. Some windows face Sveavägen directly, and others face quieter elevations at the side and rear.
Ask which rooms face the main street if sound matters to you, and which look away from it. Confirm restaurant hours and whether breakfast is included in the rate you are quoted. If you need a room with a bath rather than a shower, ask before booking.

Hotel Bachmair Weissach
Rottach-Egern, Germany
Lake Tegernsee lies below Rottach-Egern in Upper Bavaria, and this house stands in the village above its southern shore. Buildings are timber and render in the regional manner, with interiors fitted out to order rather than bought in. The grounds hold several wings of different dates, and the water itself is reached on foot from the entrance in a few minutes.
The house keeps restaurants, a spa with pools and saunas, and function rooms used for concerts and gatherings. Rooms are spread across wings of different ages, so ceiling heights and outlooks differ. Some face the lake and the hills; others look onto the village or the grounds. A separate building holds the larger hall.
Ask which wing a room sits in and what it faces, because the range is wide. Confirm spa hours, any age rules for the pools, and whether treatments need booking ahead. If you arrive by train, ask how the last part of the journey is usually made.

Hotel Indigo Verona – Grand Hotel Des Arts
Verona, Italy
Within the old centre of Verona, on Corso Porta Nuova, an older building holds this house, which belongs to the Indigo chain of IHG. The frontage and the inner court were kept in the conversion, and the interiors take their motifs from the city itself. The railway station and the Roman walls are both close by.
Public rooms sit around the court on the ground floor, with a bar, a breakfast room and reception. Guest rooms occupy the upper floors and differ in size, as the structure was not built for them. A lift serves the building. Some rooms face the corso and its traffic, and others face the quieter court.
Ask which side a room faces, since the corso carries steady traffic through the day. Confirm whether parking is arranged by the house or left to the guest, as the centre is restricted. Ask about luggage storage if you arrive before the room is ready.
