Alignment and development of the brand

Compared to other hotel groups, Rocco Forte tries to distance itself from the classic hotel chain with a strong corporate identity. His hotels all reflect an individual character, each matching the location. Although all hotels belong to the Leading Hotels of the World , and all German hotels have been awarded the highest classification by DEHOGA as 5-star superior hotels , the hotels are not kept in heavy, splendid design, but in restrained elegance As reflected in the motto “The art of simple luxury”.
