to get started.

We organized a special stay for our parents their anniversary and they went above and beyond in service and attention. Even a last minute request from my parents was met with the utmost friendliness. Mieke, one of the managers even suggested for us to leave a special note from the family in the room, so we had gifts ready in the room for them. Our parents were very extremely pleased over all.

We were extremely happy with the friendly and helpful service we received upon check in and during our entire stay. Their staff is totally first class. Also, the location couldn’t be better and this is definitely the top hotel in Cologne.

Philip

United States of America

Excellent location, next to the Cathedral and the central train station, in walking distance to the old town. Few minutes walking to Museum Ludwig (modern arts with quite a few Picasso pieces) and Wallraf-Richartz Museum (a great collection of paintings), as well as the bridge where you can walk across the Rhine River with trains passing by. Friendly and professional staff. Large room with comfortable beds and excellent facility that has considered many small details to make us feel comfortable. For example, it provides 2-flat-pin plug for US travelers; it has buttons at the door to turn on/off the "do not disturb" light (red) and the "please clean now" light (green).

Everything was great from the moment we entered the hotel to my room and the extra services were quick from room service and laundry.

This year we had stayed at chains such as the Ritz, Four seasons, mandarin oriental but the excelsior trumps all that.. we travelled with a 10 month old infant and the staff was so corporate and patient with all our requests.. The room was super and the staff was even better and I would say if you are looking to stay in luxury in Cologne don’t look anywhere else except for excelsior hotel Cologne.. Beautiful stay and thank you, you guys spoilt us

We organized a special stay for our parents their anniversary and they went above and beyond in service and attention. Even a last minute request from my parents was met with the utmost friendliness. Mieke, one of the managers even suggested for us to leave a special note from the family in the room, so we had gifts ready in the room for them. Our parents were very extremely pleased over all.

We were extremely happy with the friendly and helpful service we received upon check in and during our entire stay. Their staff is totally first class. Also, the location couldn’t be better and this is definitely the top hotel in Cologne.

The room price is a bit high.
Excellent location, next to the Cathedral and the central train station, in walking distance to the old town. Few minutes walking to Museum Ludwig (modern arts with quite a few Picasso pieces) and Wallraf-Richartz Museum (a great collection of paintings), as well as the bridge where you can walk across the Rhine River with trains passing by. Friendly and professional staff. Large room with comfortable beds and excellent facility that has considered many small details to make us feel comfortable. For example, it provides 2-flat-pin plug for US travelers; it has buttons at the door to turn on/off the "do not disturb" light (red) and the "please clean now" light (green).

- the blackout blinds have plenty of space between them and the window, so expect plenty of sunlight while sleeping, unless you wake up really early. - Average breakfast that doesn't live up to the quality of the hotel.
- Exceptional location at the heart of cologne. You can reach everything you need within minutes of walking (shops, train, cathedral...etc). - Very spacious room and bathroom. The room is also quiet and very cosy. - Incredibly helpful staff. - Great classical style. - a free minibar that gets refilled every day.

The bed was so soft but not comfortable... The mistake with my payment...
I like the small details such as, the YouTube and Netflix in the smart tv.. The nuts and bottles of water in my car when I’m leaving... Friendly staff..

That the restaurant Taku was closed during our entire stay.
The beds are very comfortable. The rooms are spacious. The proximity to the Dom, the train and many other attractions can't be beat!

The intern that was served us in the lounge and then the terrace needs supervision. Service was really bad, I finished my coffee before my cake arrived. Later I sat with a friend to have a drink before dinner, I ended up walking to the bar to order our drinks.
staff very helpful and friendly. Cocktails were delicious

Nothing everything exceeded expectations
This year we had stayed at chains such as the Ritz, Four seasons, mandarin oriental but the excelsior trumps all that.. we travelled with a 10 month old infant and the staff was so corporate and patient with all our requests.. The room was super and the staff was even better and I would say if you are looking to stay in luxury in Cologne don’t look anywhere else except for excelsior hotel Cologne.. Beautiful stay and thank you, you guys spoilt us
