Château Royal Berlin – Timeless hotel lighting
wittenberg and seventies spotlights with special finishes in a Gründerzeit setting
Just a few minutes’ walk from the Brandenburg Gate, a new boutique hotel has been enriching Berlin’s Mitte district since September 2022. Its interior design reflects the period in which the building originated in a contemporary way, making the experience of entering the “Château Royal” feel like the beginning of a journey through time.
The ensemble, comprising two meticulously restored listed buildings from 1850 and 1910, is complemented by a sensitively designed new structure. It houses 93 rooms across five floors, along with publicly accessible dining areas.




A consistent design theme is the harmonious hotel lighting, which highlights the elegant yet contemporary atmosphere. Lighting series by mawa, such as wittenberg 4.0 and seventies, provide both functional and atmospheric illumination throughout many areas of the hotel.
Cylindrical surface-mounted spotlights of the se-21 series are used in the restaurant corridors. With their black-transparent shimmering double coating “mawa industrial,” the luminaires themselves become design elements, subtly contributing to the hotel lighting.




Recessed spotlights of the type wi4-eb-1r-kr showcase the lobby, bar, and fireplace room effectively. In »mawa anodized dark bronze«, they complement the velvety ceiling color and provide an elegant solution for sophisticated hotel lighting.
Each hotel room is individually designed. A custom-made oak wood installation connects the entrance area and bathroom while also providing storage space. Recessed spotlights wi4-eb-1r are integrated here, offering thoughtful and harmonious hotel lighting that is both functional and atmospheric.




Whether in the public areas or the private retreat of the room, the carefully planned hotel lighting plays a key role in creating the unique atmosphere of the Château Royal and highlights the high design quality of the building.
Period-typical materials, the confidence to introduce selective mixes of styles, and specially designed furnishings that evoke almost-forgotten craftsmanship make the »Château Royal« the epitome of stylish hospitality.
