David Chipperfield and Stephen Williams designed a contemporary complex in Hamburg and in Palma, Swedish firm Wingårdhs has reimagined a 16th-century Spanish island setting. Elsewhere, a dramatic A-frame is nestled into a cinematic coastline and a neo-gothic landmark stands out in a contemporary city center. These seven hotels with noteworthy structural histories have architectural tales worth telling.
In the center of Cologne stands a neo-gothic landmark building from 1897 that is now home to The Qvest Hotel. Original pointed arch windows and doorframes give way to a lobby and suites that feature cross-vaulted ceilings measuring up to six meters
