What was once the footprint of a sprawling factory in a central German city is now home to a vibrant creative complex, and at the center is FREIgeist Göttingen Nordstadt. Here, industrial sleekness meets Mediterranean warmth through a perfectly balanced medley of black steel and cast-iron accents, colorful Turkish rugs, and creative art installations. Italian fare is the focus at the in-house dining outlets, and a timeless bar surprises guests with unique blasts from the past. Click here to view FREIgeist Göttingen Nordstadt on designhotels.com.
