Eh, The Wellem isn’t my type of hotel - bad views and an overly modern take on a historic building don’t scream “luxury” to me as Hyatt seems to want to position Unbound properties as (I know this started off as a Hyatt House - it still has the HH logos on the keys). It’s not horrible, but I doubt I would return, especially as it’s more expensive than the also-imperfect-but-more-my-vibe Regency. Here are my impressions and photos:

Pros:

• Bed is generally comfortable - medium slightly firm but slightly plush mattress as is common in Germany, plush covers, plush pillows
• Shower pressure is usually good (more on shower later)
• Room is spacious
• Had to ask, but was able to get 3 PM checkout
• Breakfast is pretty good - warm croissants and good salmon, decent omelet ordered from server

Neutral:

• Was supposedly upgraded from Studio to Studio Suite - unclear to me what the difference is as the room photos online seem combined and confused - Executive Suite was available online but is listed as a premium suite
• Personal take - I don’t like the design of taking historic buildings and making them feel overly generic in the interiors (similar to Parisi Udvar in Budapest)
• No in-room welcome gift but given a voucher for wine, beer, or coffee

Cons:

• Shower had wild temperature and pressure fluctuations on my morning shower (did not occur the evening before)
• WiFi was not great and neither was mobile connectivity
• Elevators are on separate controllers and annoying to pick the “right one”
• Horrible view - based on where the hotel was, I’m not sure any rooms here have views
• Called about the shampoo running out, but they didn’t bring any up within about 30ish minutes - had to put on DND and take a shower with hand soap
• No real AC or airflow right now - a bit hot at night in bed
