History

The building was constructed in 1877 by master mason

Stary Port Street
.

The first owner was a brick factory manager, Otto Bollmann, a German merchant who never lived in the house. The edifice was conceived as a tenement house with five apartments. Originally at Schule straße 3, tenants were senior officers, officials and artists, such as:

In 1920, the property passed into the hands of Magdalena Łaganowska

Konarskiego, now the building of the Catering School of Bydgoszcz.[3]

After World War II, the tenement was managed by a communist estate agency, till the early 1990s. In 1997, it returned to private hands. Since December 2003, the new owners of the building rebuilt the interiors and opened in July 2008 the Hotel "Bohema".[5] The Café and restaurant "Weranda" opened on April 15, 2007, and restaurant "Black Diamond" on March 22, 2009.[5]

Architecture and characteristics

The hotel features

belle époque period.[6]

The facade on the street displays neo-Renaissance characteristics, in particular:

  • a frieze and a rosette strip parting ground and first floor;
  • two slight avant-corps, the right one -giving way to a passage to the backyard- is adorned on the first level by a figure inserted in the curved pediment;
  • pilasters on the first floor entirely covered with motifs.

The building side giving onto the

park comprises the "Weranda" restaurant, but also exposes in the background restored wooden balcony and loggia
.

The hotel offers 24 rooms, a studio for families, apartments and suites.[5]

Hotel "Bohema", since 2008, is the only five star hotel within

Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship
.

The building has been registered on the

Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship Heritage List on September 16, 2008.[1]
