History

In 2000, the first Motel One opened in Offenbach am Main. Hotels in Schweinfurt, Lohfelden, Ratingen and Kleinmachnow followed - in places that are mostly close to big cities but outside the inner city. In 2004 the motel-one management changed its strategy, concentrating on opening new motels in central locations in the big cities. In the year 2015, nine small hotels were sold, for the start-up phase, to the real estate investor FDM Management, which operates them as Première-Classe-Hotels.

In summer of 2015, the opening of the new Motel One at the new central station of Vienna with 533 rooms spread over 18 floors. It became the largest Motel One so far.

Layout

The interior of the hotels are designed in a modern design and consistently use the corporate identity colors brown and turquoise. Motel One offers the guest an average of 16 square meters of room, without a closet, telephone, mini-bar and room service, but therefore an individually designed lounge in each hotel.

The lounge, breakfast café and bar area in the One Lounge is typically regionally theme. At the Motel One on the Waidmarkt in Cologne, the theme is "Eau de Cologne". The Motel One Dresden on the Zwinger opened in April 2013 and is based on the theme "Zwinger". The Motel One in Immermannstraße near Düsseldorf's main railway station has been open since June 2013; The theme "Japan" is reflected again in the lobby. Opened on 1 December 2014, the Motel One London Tower Hill is dedicated to the theme of the British Crown Jewels, located in the entrance of the British Museum, which is about 500 meters away from the Tower of London.

A one-concierge-tourguide is available, at cost, at the reception of the hotels in Berlin, Hamburg and Munich.
