About Us

Europe’s oldest luxury hotel company

A journey through our enchanting constellation

From the humble beginnings of Berthold Kempinski as a Berlin-based wine merchant in 1897, the Kempinski brand has come a long way. Today, with magnificent hotels on several continents, we are proud of every step we have taken on this extraordinary journey. And while much has changed, we have taken great care to remain authentic and true to our essence and our heritage.

We design every part of the travel experience around our guests. We select the destinations and carefully sculpt the properties that fit perfectly with our vision and the dreams of our discerning guests. Whether lovingly restored iconic landmarks or modern architectural masterpieces, style, quality and individuality permeate every one of our hotels. Our pools, spas, gyms, bars and restaurants are the epitome of elegance.

Over the decades our hotels have been frequented by film stars, world leaders, royalty, nobility, artists, writers and musicians. They have hosted life’s most special moments, from romantic dinners to historic meetings, from breathtaking weddings to family escapes.

But Kempinski offers something far beyond opulent rooms and fine dining. What makes us truly remarkable is the enchanting experiences, breathtaking backdrops, unique atmosphere and unforgettable memories.
