The American artist Ira Scott Bartell was born in New York in 1954. He lives and works in Cologne.
The starting point for my “room machine” room design was functionality. I also wanted to create a kind of multi-purpose room – a ‚do-it-yourself room,’ so to speak, where the guest is encouraged to rearrange the furniture. For this reason, all furniture is also equipped with castors. As a counterpoint to the pure functionality of the individual elements (bed, wardrobe, table, etc.), I wanted to use strong colours to make the furniture appear playful, almost like toys. The second element is the „immovable,“ i.e. the ceiling, floor, and walls.
The design extends from the high-gloss lacquered ceiling and speckled, matt walls to the alternating striped Siberian birch wood floor, which brings both design features together.
Then there's the third, surreal or „irrational“ element – the metallic, industrially manufactured golden folding chair with leopard cushions – which emphasises the idea of the „room machine“ by combining both functionality and luxury.

Beautiful and fairly central location in a lively neighbourhood. Wonderful, spotlessly clean room with a
good bed and great breakfast. Service and booking, as well as help with problem solving
(self-inflicted) was perfect. Thanks again for that!
You have to be aware that the parking facilities are a few metres away from the hotel itself
(but at a reasonable price) and that the hotel does not have a lift. On
hot summer nights, the lack of air conditioning (at least in this room under the roof) could be a

WAmazing Stay in the 'Big in Japan' Room!
I had a fantastic stay at this theme hotel! The Big in Japan room was beautifully designed with great
attention to detail, creating an incredible atmosphere. The quality of the room was top-notch, and
everything felt well thought out. The staff was extremely welcoming and made the experience even
better. Overall, a wonderful stay-I would definitely book again!

Room was clean and very nice, reception very friendly. Nice little touches
little touches such as kettle, hot water bottle, coffee/tea, hairdryer and hair straightener. We were
thrilled! The price-performance ratio is definitely right. The city centre and train station, as well as numerous
cafés and bistros are within easy walking distance. The "Big in Japan" room has a friendly,
quiet atmosphere to make you feel at home.

Highly recommended!
A well-designed hotel with a unique concept - each room is individually designed by artists
and you can feel it in every detail. We felt completely at ease and would come back anytime!

Bonito y muy céntrico
Nos encantó el hotel. La habitación era amplia y luminosa. Algún día que llovió nos quedamos en la
habitación y pudimos sentirnos cómodos. El único inconveniente fue subir hasta el 4rto piso sin
ascensor. Esto hará que no repitamos la experiencia. Pero si no tienen problemas en subir escaleras
esta muy cerca del centro, a 20 min del Dom andando. Lo recomiendo! A 15-20 min andando del
centre

It was perfect for us
Beautiful accommodation in a great location. There is no lift, you have to climb some stairs. We
didn't mind, but you should know that.

Feel-good rooms in a city hotel - simply great.
I particularly liked the fact that there are different themed rooms. This creates a very
individual and personal atmosphere. You can see a lot of attention to detail in the rooms
and the hotel should retain this. Simply beautiful. The breakfast at the Hotel Mercure was
was also very appealing and there was plenty to choose from. We'll see you again :-).
