Beach Hotel

It's not the dated chain you once knew, Dorint Hotels is wrapping-up an impressive revamp pf its signature global properties. Sylt is one of the best. Located on the narrow southern peninsula of Sylt, near one of the island's largest sand beaches, Dorint Soel'ring Hof is a magical fairy tale-like hotel with gabled roof and white siding overlooking the majestic sand dunes and grassy hillside. Guests stroll along a cobblestone walkway and enter a contemporary setting and dark wooden furnishing contrasted by bright colored walls and crackling fireplaces. One of the top luxury hotels on the island is also the choice hotel for fashionable Germans that don't fancy the frilly floral ambiance of the island's other top hotels. <br /><br />The surrounding setting is one-of-kind, grassy-capped hills contrasting against sandy dunes and crashing waves on both sides of the narrow peninsula. The hotel embodies an almost mythical appearance, with a low-rise roofline and storybook windows. A modest bright entry offers glimpses of Scandinavian seaside decor with touches of traditional German carpentry like the dark wood floors and beam ceiling. The hotel features two restaurants as well as a lobby lounge. A modest spa area features a full sauna and solarium should a vacation on Sylt be lacking, as often, in sunshine.<span style="background-color: rgb(212, 212, 212);"></span>

The Room

Walks on the beach, fireside romance, and all the wind you could ever want make Hotel Soel'ring Hof the perfect place to relax and recuperate while on Sylt. A little too quiet for younger couples, and away from most of the island action, the hotel is well suited for those look for true nature and long empty beaches.North Sea architecture meets Sylt chic, the Soel'ring masters tailored refinement with modern furnishings neither too trendy or too loud. Rooms come in three entry level categories, all generously sized, which is especially convenient given how many people the Germans like to pack into their rooms. Chrome accents and modern lines decorate in-room seating areas as well as bathrooms that are free on any kitschy-beach references. Room service is impeccable and surprisingly personal given the size of the management chain. All rooms feature seaside views while suites offer winding staircases and fireplaces over two floors.
