Sit back, relax and unwind in the cosy sea maisonette – and on two floors. You will find a spacious sofa and a cosily furnished interior on the lower level. In the hotel with a bathtub in the room, the North Sea lies behind the dune. Or in short: the beauty of the island with all its facets right in front of you.
A bathtub in the bath is truly a pleasure, because here too the view extends over the dunes to the sea horizon!
One of the most important painters on the island gave this maisonette its name: Andreas Dirks. He was born in Tinnum in 1865. Dirks spent his apprenticeship years in Weimar and Düsseldorf, where he attended the art schools there. His impressionistic works of art attracted attention far beyond the island. He died at the age of 57 in Düsseldorf, his adopted home. Streets in Tinnum and Westerland were named after him.
Clara Tiedemann is the namesake of the other large maisonette. Born in Flensburg, she was the first celebrity landlady on the island. Together with her husband, she settled in Kampen not far from the red cliff and built the “Kliffende” house with him, which was a guest house from 1925 to 1955. Thomas Mann, for example, once spent his holidays here, and the painter Emil Nolde set up a studio in the former hayloft of the house. Clara Tiedemann attached great importance to the selection of her guests, most of whom came on recommendation. She died in Stuttgart in 1979.
The amazement at the view from the hotel’s room with a bathtub overlooking the impressive sea is hard to suppress. The view from the window on the lower floor is breathtaking. The view of the North Sea from the hotel room with bathtub overlooking the North Sea on the upper floor is hard to beat – setting the mood, so to speak, for an evening of fine dining in the 2-star restaurant or in the elegant living room with one of the vinophile treasures from our “wine cellar”.
Our sea maisonettes, the rooms with bathtub, are named after the pioneer of the cliff end and the painter of dreamlike dune landscapes – Clara Tiedemann and Andreas Dirks. Enjoy your stay in our luxurious North Sea hotel with its unique location and special service. Look forward to these special rooms, because where you can lie in the bathtub and watch the waves of the North Sea with its tides. It doesn’t get more romantic than this.
