Grand Hotel Lublinianka is a four-star hotel in Lublin, Poland. The building was constructed between 1899 and 1900 and has served many purposes throughout its history.
History
[edit]The building was constructed in the years 1899–1900, in just 17 months, for the Commercial Chamber of Lublin.[1] It was designed by Gustaw Landau, an architect working in Warsaw and Łódź, and a brother of one of the co-owners of the Commercial Chamber. It became a popular venue for business negotiations as well as meals. In 1910, the building got the architectural shape which has been preserved until today.[2] It was built in the eclectic style and features a Baroque dome, classicist colonnade and a Renaissance Revival attic.
In the period between the two world wars, there was a delicatessen shop and a coffee shop with breakfast rooms on the ground floor.
During World War II, the building was transformed into the Deutsches Haus because of its convenient location in the city centre.[3] In the 1950s, it was changed into a low standard hotel with Lublinianka Cafe and a restaurant downstairs.
Lublin Grand Hotel, a company belonging to the Von der Heyden Group, bought the hotel in 2000 and thoroughly restored and modernized it, which led to its re-opening, as a 4-star deluxe hotel, in May 2002. It offers 72 rooms and apartments, restaurants, cafes, gym, sauna and conference halls.
