Scandal around Radisson in Rostock: Hotel is renamed Scanhotel!

The hotel landscape in Rostock is faced with a profound change: the owner Friedemann Kunz has decided to end the contract with the Radisson Hotel Group and to rename the hotel, which was previously run under the well -known brand. dmm.travel reports that the renaming of the hotel is also expanded to the new building on the Silo Peninsel.

Kunz, who is known in Rostock as an entrepreneur and founder of the prefabricated house provider Scan Haus Marlow, has brought together all of his business activities in the Friedemann Kunz Family Foundation. This also includes hotel participations and real estate. The hotel in Rostock, equipped with 251 rooms, also belongs to this foundation.

Not only the names change: According to DMM.Travel, the hotel operation will be continued independently by the FH Rostock Hotelbetriebs GmbH from July 16, 2025. This company, also part of the family foundation and employer of the employees, took a surprising step last week: On July 10, Central Systems of Radisson were switched off without any advance notice and dismantled the Radisson logo.

The FH Rostocker Hotelbetriebs GmbH had offered a partnership handover to Radisson, which was, however, rejected. Radisson himself sees the termination of the management contract as ineffective and plans legal steps. Despite these developments, the hotel remains accessible to guests who have already booked, and the existing range of services remains.
