On 1 March 2014, a new InterCityHotel opened its doors in Ingolstadt in Bavaria, an important centre of
the German automobile industry. In total, this will be the 36th hotel operated by the Frankfurt-based
company InterCityHotel GmbH. Located within the immediate vicinity of the Central Station, the city
centre and the Audi Forum, this is an upper-mid range establishment that will appeal to business and
leisure travellers alike.
There are 144 rooms from the latest InterCityHotel generation, each
of which will be at least 20 m² in size. All rooms are sound-insulated, air-conditioned and offer satellite
TV with free Sky channels as well as being equipped with a minibar. One disabled-accessible guest
room is available if required. Free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel, a Business Corner and the large desks in
the rooms should prove a particular benefit to business visitors. A modern Bistro Lounge, a restaurant
and a bar will serve up a selection of culinary treats and provide an ideal environment in which to relax
during the evenings. The extensive facilities offered by the hotel are supplemented by the
“FreeCityTicket”, which is included in the room price and enables guests to use local public transport
free of charge.
The hotel has been designed by the Munich-based company Höldrich
Architekten. Interior design is by Dreesen Partner of Düsseldorf and Burbacher Objekt Consult GmbH
Co. KG of Burbach. The investor for the hotel project is the Luxembourg-based firm JP Commercial
XII S. à. R. l.
“Ingolstadt’s central position within Bavaria and its proximity to the
metropolitan regions of Munich and Nuremberg make it the perfect location for a new InterCityHotel
and the optimum addition to a brand portfolio which is already highly attractive”, commented Puneet
Chhatwal, CEO of Steigenberger Hotels AG.
