Hotel Adlon Kempinski, Germany
Our Customer
Hotel Adlon Kempinski in Berlin is leading the league for Germany. The Adlon was first
opened in 1907 and soon became “the” spot in Berlin and one of the leading hotels
worldwide.
The Challange
The expectation was to replace the original halogen lighting to reduce the carbon
footprint and to cut down on energy consumption of the hotel. Additionally, superior
lighting quality and ease of replacement were key.
Our Solution
Some 7000 of GE’s MR16 7W Energy Smart dimmable LED lamps were installed in
384 suites of the five star hotel. The lamps are available as a 35W and 50W halogen
equivalent in multiple colour temperatures and suitable for track and recessed lighting.

“Aside from high quality and reliability,
the new lighting solution had to fit into
the aesthetics of the hotel without
compromising the look and original
design characteristics. Therefore, we
tested a variety of products for months
and finally the hotel selected the product
that best meets these requirements.”
