Room Mate Bruno, located in a 19th Century spice warehouse in the city’s port, brings one of the few historical buildings left in the Kop Van Zuid district to life. Room Mate Bruno is Rotterdam’s newest asset, an attractive, energetic and adventurous captain, who will be the perfect guide for discovering the city’s wonders. The renown Italian architect Teresa Sapey brought Room Mate Bruno to live. Teresa was able to combine tradition with avantgarde tendencies in a building that preserves its original structure and character. Taking the visitor on a historical trip through the Dutch colonies. The outstanding colors, nautical elements and the Flemish paintings on the wall play a very important role in the hotel’s décor. Sapey has kept the building’s naval identity, but she also wanted to take Spain’s sun, flavor and colors to the Northern Europe. The use of color stands out in Room Mate Bruno. But Bruno also holds a secret in its interior, a marvelous frozen garden. Where blue and orange colors unite to create an iron island that wraps a beautiful orange tree in the midnight sun. An environment that will make each travel experience unique.
