February 11, 2005Hotel chain portrays Hitler's mountain retreat as idyllic resort
By Ron Kamara The Simon Wiesenthal Center issued a protest yesterday to InterContinental Hotels Group over an article in the British-based hotel chain's magazine, which portrayed Adolf Hitler's former mountain retreat as an idyllic vacation resort. Hitler built his retreat and southern headquarters near the town of Berchtesgaden in the scenic Bavarian Alps. The complex included a large home for the Nazi leader, a mountaintop conference center and a bunker. Debate has raged in recent years over the extent to which the area should be reinvented as a destination for vacationers. InterContinental Hotels intends to open its new Berchtesgaden Resort hotel in March of 2005, according to its Web site. Comments
