The
playful, upside-down hotel room captivated the crowd and portrayed the spirit
of Berlin amongst the vibrant atmosphere of Lollapalooza. Throughout the
weekend, the unique photo hotspot was a must-see attraction, and gave guests
the opportunity to capture their ultimate festival moment whilst inviting them
to step into a world where hospitality meets the unexpected.
Adding
to the excitement, IHG Hotels & Resorts Flipped welcomed a
star-studded lineup, including Mischa Barton, renowned for her iconic role
in 'The OC California”; Riccardo Simonetti, the dynamic fashion influencer
and TV personality; Luna Schweiger, acclaimed German actress and
model; Gizem Emre, a promising young actress in the German film industry;
and Celine Bethmann, the stunning model and former winner of Germany’s
Next Top Model.
