Wyn. Strandhotel Sylt
Westerland, Germany · Independent · Near Luxury
Wyn is Söl'ring, the Frisian spoken on Sylt, and it means wind. Behind the last dune at Brandenburger Strand, where the Windsurf World Cup comes in, the house went up around 1900, became a hotel in 1997, and spent years as BASF's staff hotel under the name Haus Westerland. Arcona took it over in November 2017 and reopened it in June 2019. Seventy-two rooms face the sea or the island from Brandenburger Straße 13, and the pool on the sixth floor becomes a roof bar after dark.
- 72 rooms
- Opened 1997
- Neighborhood: Sylt-Westerland
