Interhotel was an East German chain of luxury hotels.

Practically all luxury hotels in East Germany were part of the Interhotel chain, notable exceptions being hotel "Neptun" in Warnemünde and Cecilienhof castle in Potsdam.

The Verband Deutscher Konsumgenossenschaften (VDK), the union of consumer co-operatives in the GDR also ran hotels, mainly 4 star and three star hotels such as the Konsum Erholungsheim in Oberhof, which is still part of what remains of the co-operative movement in Germany.

The Interhotel hotels were under the control of the East German state security service, the Stasi, under the Tourist Department.

The Stasi tried to monitor the activities of international tourists, by sending prostitutes to audio- and video-controlled hotel rooms.
