The Grand Hilbert Hotel

Also known as ‘The Grand Budapest Hotel’ by newer arrivals and likened to the Grand Hotel of the same name from the Wes Anderson movie, appears to be a pastel painted Grand Hotel from the late 19th or early 20th century. It’s building is five stories high, and it is known for its Grand Ball Room and Grand Galas. It’s staff is made up of rubber uniformed bell hops, maids and other staff, overseen by The Concierge.

The Concierge is said to once have been a great mathematician, who upon reaching Shangrila and the Grand Hilbert Hotel, sacrificed themselves to the City and the Hotel. Others say The Concierge is a projection of the Hotel itself.

Regardless, The Concierge is a being of undetermined gender, sex and age, only concerned about the wellbeing of its staff and guests.

But the Grand Hilbert Hotel is, in itself, a benevolent Eldrich location, for its internal dimensions are infinite.

It begins with the Grand Ballroom, where one may walk for hours to reach the other wall, but only ever needs a minute to reach the entrance.

It continues with the stair cases and lift shaft that seem to stretch upwards into infinity, but always allow the guest to reach their story and hallway within a few minutes.

And it ends in the hallways that do not appear to have an end, with an infinitude of rooms on the left and right. While guests will always reach their room within five minutes of walking, others may wander these halls for hours, or even days, and then reach the stair case or lift of another floor a million floors up or down.
