Scandic откроет первый отель в Фрайбурге в партнерстве с IREMIS

Updated Hotel operator Scandic is set to enter the Freiburg hospitality market through a partnership with pan-European real estate investment manager IREMIS. Under the agreement, IREMIS has purchased the property from its existing owner, while Scandic has agreed to a long-term lease to operate the hotel. The property will undergo a comprehensive renovation programme to align with brand standards ahead of an anticipated opening in "autumn 2027".

Scandic Hotels Group chief development officer Jesper Engman said: "We are open for business with partners who share our ambition to develop strong hotel assets in attractive destinations. "This project shows how Scandic's operating platform, brand strength and sustainability focus can help reposition an existing hotel into a competitive, future-ready product." Situated in south-western Germany near the French and Swiss borders, the asset is located directly opposite Freiburg's central railway station and adjacent to the Konzerthaus conference centre.

Scandic Hotels Group president and CEO Jens Mathiesen said: "This is an important step in our continued German growth journey and a clear example of how Scandic can create value together with new property partners. "Freiburg is a resilient and attractive city with strong year-round demand, and the hotel's location gives us an excellent platform to establish Scandic in a new German destination for both business and leisure guests." In July, Scandic signed a lease agreement with German real estate investment manager Union Investment to open its third hotel in Frankfurt. "Scandic to open maiden hotel in Freiburg, Germany" was originally created and published by Hotel Management Network, a GlobalData owned brand. Advertisement Advertisement
