For more than 150 years of varied history, Cologne´s first and finest luxury hotel address unites tradition and innovation in an extraordinary symbiosis. As the only member of the Leading Hotels of the World in Cologne, the philosophy of the Excelsior Hotel Ernst “Your individuality is our excellence” is lived daily by its 195 employees.
The exposed position, in the heart of the city and vis-à-vis to the Cologne Cathedral, makes it easily accessible from all directions. Nobel materials and valuable antiques give each of the 142 rooms and suites its own character and individual charm. Harmonic colors create a timeless home décor which invite to relax. This per-sonal note, in conjunction to the classic-modern furnishing, fulfills every wish.
The name of the restaurant taku comes from Japanese and means House of hospitality.
The taku, awarded with one Michelin star, is the first address for authentic East Asian delights. At the multiple award-winning gourmet Restaurant Hanse Stube, you will experience culinary magic moments. The motivated team creates innovative French cuisine with local influences, whose finesse is famous far beyond the city border.
During the day, the team of the Piano Bar offers coffee and tea specialties as well as pâtisserie and cakes. In the evening the charming bar team will mix excellent cocktail classics and own creations. A harmonic ambience and the stylish design of the lobby lounge accompany the traditional Excelsior Hotel Ernst Afternoon Tea.
12 elegant function rooms for up to 200 persons and our exclusive Business Suites provide the perfect venue for demanding events in the historic ambience of the Excelsior Hotel Ernst. Business meetings, weddings and private events will find a representative frame.
