For special occasions and conferences, there is also a separate event floor offering a breathtaking view of the vast expanse of the Rheingau region.

Architecture that reflects the forest

The architecture of the WALD.WEIT resort reflects the natural surroundings in their purest form and bears the distinctive signature of the renowned Wiesbaden architectural firm BGF+ Architekten. The inspiration for the design came from the fascinating mysticism of the forest and its enchanting interplay of light and shadow, not to mention the impressive flora and fauna. This is reflected in the projecting front façade and the rails, which pick up on the wild geometry of the forest and incorporate it into the architecture.

The interior further underlines the connection to nature through the use of natural materials, textures and patterns, along with the masterful interplay of light and shadow, creating unique spaces for the active hotel, the restaurant and the event area. The lobby, for example, impresses guests with its spectacular mushroom gill design that immerses them in a magical forest-like world.

Sustainable construction and operation of the WALD.WEIT

There has been a special focus on sustainability during the construction of the WALD.WEIT Rheingau Hotel & Retreat. The resort’s heating and cooling systems use eco-friendly geothermal energy in combination with a woodchip biomass plant to cover the peak loads. We are using recycled material for modelling the rails in order to conserve resources.

Wood is a key feature of both the natural façade and the interior design of the WALD.WEIT Rheingau Hotel & Retreat. Natural stone veneer panels serve as nesting sites and habitats for native reptiles and other animal species.

To save resources when watering the outdoor spaces, a process water pond will be created and additional rainwater will be collected via retention roofs. Rainwater infiltration trenches will also help to relieve the pressure on the public sewer system. Extensive charging infrastructure for e-mobility rounds off the comprehensive sustainability concept at the WALD.WEIT.
