Passau Tourism
Architecture
The large sculpture "The Sleeping Man" on the right bank of the Danube houses a patented hotel. Architecturally, the Rotel Inn reflects the themes of overnight stays and water. The individual parts of the 85-meter-long building form a reclining, sleeping person. Slopes and forms are modelled after a ship's bow and waves. The interior is dominated by water lines on the ceilings and decorative elements in primary colours. The entrance area consists of two 15-meter-high head-shaped walls.
History
Here, the operating family has transferred its concept of the "rolling hotel" (Rotel Tours) to a hostel with a fixed location. The Rotel Inn was built in 1993 on the site of the former boathouse of the Passau Rowing Club. The hotel offers 90 minimalist rooms with shared bathrooms.
