Tree house hotel in Germany - Classification & special features

A tree house hotel is more than just unusual accommodation.
It combines the feeling of height, nature and space with the comfort of a well-designed hotel.

In Germany, tree house hotels are being built where architecture, sustainability and conscious time-outs come together - far away from the romance of huts, but close to what really counts: Peace, design and nature.

What is a tree house hotel?

A tree house hotel is a special form of accommodation close to nature.
Guests stay several metres above the ground - usually on stilts or supporting structures - and enjoy all the comforts of a hotel: their own bathroom, heating, high-quality beds, electricity, Wi-Fi and often additional wellness facilities.

In contrast to simple tree houses or adventure accommodation, a tree house hotel is aimed at adults, couples and those seeking peace and quiet who want to consciously slow down.

Tree house or tree house hotel - the subtle difference

Many people associate a tree house with a simple hut in the branches of a tree.
A tree house hotel takes a different approach: it combines an experience of nature with architectural sophistication, privacy and year-round comfort.

Tree house hotels are often not built directly in trees, but deliberately on stilts.
This protects nature while retaining the feeling of floating.
