Excelsior Hotel Ernst

Standing tall in Cologne since 1863, the Excelsior Hotel Ernst has seen it all – royalty, world leaders, and plenty of travellers who appreciate the finer things in life. Directly across from the famous cathedral, it offers elegant rooms, Michelin-starred dining, and an afternoon tea worth dressing up for. Taku serves up East Asian dishes with serious wow-factor, while Hanse Stube brings a French touch to local flavours. A sauna, steam bath, and first-class service round out the experience.
