Since spring 2025, the seventh floor of Munich's luxury Bayerischer Hof hotel has welcomed an extraordinary addition: Panorama Suite 7 – a one-bedroom masterpiece whose harmonious design creates an atmosphere of warmth and tranquility. The suite features a bedroom, dressing room, and generously proportioned living space with bar and integrated kitchen. A stunning focal point is the 2.7-metre dining table from the 18th century, crafted from French elm wood, paired with a 19th-century maple bench from Italy. The pièce de résistance: a private loggia that beckons you to savor the Munich evening sky.

The suite effortlessly expands into a two- or three-bedroom layout, offering up to 170 square metres of refined space. This includes an additional double bedroom that connects seamlessly to the main suite, plus a single room featuring a distinctive alcove bed. For those acquainted with the Bayerischer Hof, the mastermind behind this extraordinary space is unmistakable: Axel Vervoordt, globally celebrated interior architect and devoted art and antiques collector, delivering his ninth transformative project for the hotel. The Belgian visionary is renowned for his singular philosophy—crafting spaces that feel as though they've existed for centuries. His hallmark aesthetic marries authenticity with timeless elegance, drawing from natural materials, historical artifacts, and carefully balanced proportions. Here, Vervoordt has embraced natural hues and organic materials: warm earth tones, 18th-century oak flooring, hand-dyed 19th-century linen upholstery, and walnut furnishings that embody his unmistakable sensibility. A 3.2-metre sofa in soft grey invites unhurried moments of repose. Lighting and vessels from Vervoordt's Gravenwezel ateliers—including oak and handmade Japanese paper fixtures—impart a distinctive character throughout. The exquisite fabrics are personally curated by May Vervoordt, his wife, whose refined selections elevate the suite's singular atmosphere.

With the Panorama Suite 7, Hotel Bayerischer Hof continues the success story of one of the most significant design collaborations of recent years, once again setting a benchmark for sophisticated exclusivity. Munich-based interior architect Gregor Baur was commissioned once more for project management and local planning. Drawing on his extensive experience and keen eye for architectural detail, he has successfully integrated the vision of Axel Vervoordt and hotel director Innegrit Volkhardt into the existing structures of the historic building with remarkable harmony. The partnership between Hotel Bayerischer Hof and Axel Vervoordt continues to evolve. Currently, work is underway on another major renovation project within the hotel. The lobby, too, will shine in a new light in 2026—initial construction phases have already commenced.
