WHY YOU SHOULD PLAN YOUR NEXT EVENT IN FRANKFURT

Many people simply see Frankfurt as Germany’s financial heart. But this does a disservice to the city’s rich artistic and cultural heritage, pioneering design projects, superb local beers and award-winning wines from nearby Mosel. Villa Kennedy is the perfect base from which to develop the most extraordinary event in Frankfurt.

Revolutionary Design

What we love about Frankfurt is that it matches our Rocco Forte values, seamlesslyblending heritage with modernity. A living example of Frankfurt’s forward-thinking ethos, the ground-breaking DomRömer project has painstakingly restored the historic beauty of the Old Town. With a vibrant new mix of restaurants, shops and traditional artisan workshops, there’s never been a better time to plan an event in this innovative city.

Fascinating Cultural Heritage

Home to nine different cultural institutions, Frankfurt’s Museum Embankment is located just minutes away from Villa Kennedy. From priceless works of art in the Städel Museum to foundations dedicated to film, architecture and communications, the huge variety of workshops, special events and tours available promise to keep everyone entertained.

Hearty German Cuisine

Mixing international influences with traditional German produce and pairing it with superb local wines and beers has made Frankfurt’s food scene a force to be reckoned with. This is showcased in the raft of stylish restaurants and hearty, authentic inns all over the city. Frankfurt’s proximity to the Mosel and Rheingau wine regions provides oenophiles with the perfect opportunity to explore the vineyards and taste some renowned local wines.

Fairytale Castles

Outside the city are some of Germany’s most beautiful castles and palaces, from the elegant Lohr Palace, overlooking the Main River (the inspiration for the birthplace of Snow White), to Mespelbrunn with its romantic moat, hidden away in the enormous Spessart forest.

The Right Space

From grand gatherings to intimate affairs, Villa Kennedy has a space to suit your specifications. Take over the elegant ballroom, which accommodates up to 320 guests, or make use of the Villa’s delightful garden for an al fresco affair or relaxed BBQ. Frankfurt has all the ingredients for an unforgettable event.

Why nostalgia is the new luxury at Brown’s Hotel

As the world turns ever faster, the more we crave moments that feel timeless. In an age of novelty, amid the noise of constant ‘connection’ and the short-lived churn of the new, many are choosing something rare: nostalgia. Comfort is found in the familiar, meaning in memory, and beauty in places that feel lived-in. Nostalgia has emerged as the new expression of luxury, not as a retreat into the past, but rather a graceful refusal to let its traditions and heritage fade away.

Milan on a Plate

Few cities have shaped Italy’s table quite like Milan. Arguably best known for its extraordinary fashion and design scene, the city’s culinary story is one less often told - though no less remarkable. It is one best read on a plate, through recipes handed down over centuries. 

Made in Italy

In a city with a legacy like Florence, it is only natural for inspiration to take root. And alongside the bigger, global brands, small artisans flourish through their innate ability to tailor their ideas to an individual’s taste and dreams.
