For over 40 years the Klassik Altstadt Hotel, which in itself dates back to a \u201ebathhouse” in 1299, offers echoes of L\u00fcbecks famous literary ancestors under one roof in a listed merchant House.
\nThe hotel, that is situated in the heart of the historic old town of L\u00fcbeck, has always had a strong emphasis on art and culture.<\/p>\n
Since 2002 the 11 double rooms are dedicated to the personalities from L\u00fcbeck, who have shaped the cultural heritage of this renowned and charming medieval city. In the 17 single rooms, you will find personal travel reports written by various authors of the last centuries about L\u00fcbeck. They poetically describe their experiences and impressions, of the Hanseatic city.<\/p>\n
L\u00fcbeck is not only known for its Marzipan but also for its famous writers. In this UNESCO World-heritage city once upon several different times, lived and worked literary luminaries: Emanual Geibel, Ida Boy-Ed, Dorothea Schl\u00f6sser, Erich M\u00fchsam, Heinrich Mann not to forget our two Literature Nobel-prize winners Thomas Mann and G\u00fcnter Grass.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.klassik-altstadt-hotel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/PHOTO-2023-03-11-13-53-20.jpg” alt=”Mit dem Fahrrad nach L\u00fcbeck” title_text=”PHOTO-2023-03-11-13-53-20″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.klassik-altstadt-hotel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/PHOTO-2023-03-11-13-53-01-e1678709460514.jpg” alt=”Mit dem Fahrrad nach L\u00fcbeck” title_text=”PHOTO-2023-03-11-13-53-01″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]The owners of the Klassik Altstadt Hotel have a deep and long term bond with the two literature institutes; G\u00fcnter Grass Haus and the Buddenbrook Museum. Both of which are within walking distance from the Boutique hotel in the Fischergrube 52.
\nSince local literature moves the heart of the family run house from the beginning until the present, this Literaturehotel wants to share its knowledge of L\u00fcbeck as well as its own history, that is often reflected in the stories of past and present authors.
\n\u201eWe are all aware, that not all British speakers are acquainted with the german authors never-minding the fact that the language barrier may be a difficulty. Since my son and I are both bilingual and our staff all speak english it is our ambition to convey the local literature, if only by means of literature walks in english or visits to the named museums. \u201e says owner Hilke Flebbe
\nIn the Hotel library the english speaking guests will find \u201eThe peeling of the onion” from G\u00fcnter Grass and \u201eThe Buddenbrooks”
\nfrom Thomas Mann, amongst other great books in english<\/p>\n
“Primarily, we want our guests to relax. During their holidays, they can concentrate on things that they usually do not have the time for. A beautiful boat trip around the old town of L\u00fcbeck or a visit in the unique Marzipan-salon, or maybe a marvelous stroll through the many quaint little alleys and courtyards, that start right in-front of our doorstep.” remarks Alex Flebbe, \u201eNot forgetting of course the many bars, restaurants and cafes that the historic old town has to offer”.
\nStories are however a great souvenir which can be taken home
\nThe focus on literature is only one of many reasons for choosing the Klassik Altstadt Hotel set in the heart of this beautiful UNESCO world- heritage and literature city of L\u00fcbeck.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”rgba(164,129,76,0.1)” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”3901,3903,3905,4201″ show_title_and_caption=”off” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_text_color=”#A4814C” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

A graphic artist who also writes is someone who does not change the ink.”\u00a0 (G\u00fcnter Grass)<\/p>\n
This room reflects unique charm of the historical building. It has high ceilings with wooden floors and lots of lovingly designed details.<\/p>\n
One of the most important citizens of L\u00fcbeck in the recent past was the literary Nobel Prize Laureate G\u00fcnter Grass. During his lifetime, Mr Grass was a frequent guest of the hotel and personally chose the most beautiful and largest room in the Klassik Altstadt Hotel to be named after him. His works as well as his ideas are displayed in this Maisonette Suite. The suite contains countless paintings and text-lines from his famous books. The historic windows, which go from the wooden panelled floor to the ceiling, allow the sunlight to flood the room, providing inspiration and relaxation. The Barrington armchair, with its footstool alongside a comfortable sofa, adds a stunning focal point to this room. It also provides a relaxing spot to settle down with a book, enjoy a cup of tea, or just to watch a bit of TV on a Sunday afternoon. There is a small fridge and a tea maker alongside a Nespresso coffee machine to make you feel at home.<\/p>\n
It\u00b4s easy to imagine Mr Grass sitting in front of the fireplace enjoying a glass of his favourite Beaujolais whilst writing the script to his latest novel. We offer you these traditional red wines to taste for yourself. The labels of the bottles were decorated by Mr Grass himself with his own artistic designed emblems.<\/p>\n
After a day spent exploring streets and squares, there is nothing like soaking in a free-standing bathtub or refreshing oneself under a rain shower. In the G\u00fcnter Grass-Suite, you will appreciate this contemporary spacious bathroom with its natural texture on the tiles giving it a subtle Zen feel.<\/p>\n
A comfortable king-size box-spring bed invites you to dream and relax in peace and quiet in the heart of the historic town of L\u00fcbeck. There is plenty of room for your belongings in the walk-in wardrobe. A white, elegant spiral staircase leads to a mezzanine with a queen-size bed. Enjoy the bird\u2019s eye view over the rooftops of L\u00fcbeck through a porthole. Also look over the roofs towards the majestic gothic St. Mary\u00b4s Church (St. Marien-Kirche). It has always been a symbol of the power and prosperity of the old\u00a0Hanseatic\u00a0city, and is situated at the highest point of the island that forms the old town of L\u00fcbeck. It is part of the\u00a0UNESCO World Heritage Site\u00a0of the old Hanseatic City of L\u00fcbeck.<\/p>\n

Heinrich Mann always stood in the shadow of his younger brother Thomas. Nevertheless, he was actually the more interesting of the two brothers. We have also dedicated this beautiful deluxe double room to him. This spacious, high ceiling room allows space for a desk and a small seating area. Through the large windows a lot of light falls into the bright and lovingly furnished room during the day. For families travelling with little ones the comfortable sofa-bed provides sleeping for 2 children. There is of course a comfortable box-spring double bed and a tea\/coffeemaker to make yourself feel at home. Since Heinrich Mann loved going to the theatre, which is just across from the hotel, this room has some relics from this time.<\/p>\n
The luxurious bathroom with fragrant toiletries, offers a rainforest shower and a free standing bathtub. If this feels like home, it’s because we’ve specifically chosen the furniture and materials with your comfort in mind.<\/p>\n

Johann Friedrich Overbeck was a German painter, draftsman and illustrator born in L\u00fcbeck. The Overbeck Society of Artists was founded in his name and delights modern art lovers with its many exhibitions in L\u00fcbeck.<\/p>\n
To honour this outstanding artist, the second deluxe double room on the third floor has been dedicated to him. This room is extremely cosy, furnished with a romantic, classical interior, antique desk and a box-spring double bed. There is of course a little seating area, where you can relax, put on the tea maker and watch TV or read some literature about the famous artist and his family.<\/p>\n
There is a walk-in wardrobe that provides plenty of storage. The sunlit spacious bathroom, with an open shower as well as a comfortable and spacious bathtub, allows you to get a good fresh start to the day or helps you unwind in the evening.<\/p>\n

If one thinks of famous personalities from L\u00fcbeck, the family \u201cMann\u201d immediately come to mind. The most famous of the family was Thomas Mann, who became known for his novel \u201cBuddenbrooks”. Naturally we have dedicated one of our historical double rooms for the Nobel Laureate of Literature in our hotel. Since he also mentioned the \u201cFischergrube\u201d as his Senator Merchants House in his novel, the Thomas Mann room is facing just this same quiet, charming little side- street.<\/p>\n
This room reflects the simple and unique charm of our historical building, high ceilings, handwoven wool carpets with lovely antique style mahogany furniture. It is the perfect setting, that mirrors the period that this noble prize winning author lived in and wrote about. This charming room, may inspire you to read the Buddenbrooks by the light of the antique bed lamp.<\/p>\n
Even though we take great care to maintain the historic characteristics of this traditional heritage building, we ensure our guests all the comforts of the present day. There is a modern bathroom with a shower as well as a separate toilet.<\/p>\n

Ida Boy-Ed wrote more than 70 novels and narrative volumes and influenced the cultural life of L\u00fcbeck with her Literature Salon. She was a sponsor of the young Thomas Mann. Her private literary events, with internationally known authors were supposedly responsible for Thomas Mann\u2019s novel Buddenbrooks becoming famous throughout the world and eventually allowing him to be awarded with the Nobel Prize in Stockholm in 1901. We are proud to be able to contribute to sustaining her memory by dedicating to her this pretty room on the third floor.<\/p>\n
This room is extremely quiet, since it is located overlooking the courtyard behind the hotel. From here you have a charming view over the rooftops of L\u00fcbeck\u2019s little merchant houses. The two comfortable mahogany armchairs, in Louis XVI style, invite you to read a book and enjoy a cup of tea. The bathroom is of course in a modern classical style.<\/p>\n

The room on the first floor of the building unites two famous members of L\u00fcbeck. In 1705, Johann Sebastian Bach travelled more than 400 kilometres from Arnstadt (Thuringia) to L\u00fcbeck, to listen and take lessons from his musical role model Buxtehude. The deep friendship that united the two famous composers is illustrated in their mutual letters and texts. These are available to read in this quiet room facing the side street Schw\u00f6neckenquerstrasse. The comfortable box-spring double bed is a wonderful place to relax and listen to music from Bach or Buxtehude. Alternatively, the sunlit room inspires one to sit in the wide and comfortable armchairs of the room and to enjoy a warm cup of tea, and indulge in a piece of the famous L\u00fcbeck marzipan. Despite being a listed building, the bathroom is designed to meet modern necessities. In contrast to the historic bedroom, the recently renovated bathroom with toilet, shower and sink is very modern. There are also small details such as a hairdryer and toiletries.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”Franziska zu Reventlow” disabled_on=”off|off|off” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” title_level=”h3″ hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” closed_toggle_background_color=”rgba(164,129,76,0.1)” title_text_color=”#A4814C” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Franziska Countess of Reventlow grew up in a Prussian aristocratic family.

For example the window directed towards the courtyard, so nothing disturbs ones peaceful sleep in the comfortable double bed.
