Beautiful hotel with EXCELLENT service. Very clean rooms and the beds are so incredibly comfy!

Anyone looking for a luxury hotel in Cologne with excellent service can only stay at the Excelsior Ernst. There are only a few houses in Germany that can still maintain the standards of the Excelsior Ernst. Even the Hansestube has spoiled us with all its art. No house in Cologne can compete here. Audience 454 on 6.7.21 MR Thank you and see you soon

Dear Excelsior Hotel Ernst Team, After an incredibly long train journey and many hardships, I arrived in Cologne at 7am. It is raining and I am in a bad mood, to put it in good German. Nothing is open and I know you can tell I have a long way to go. After some thought, I decide to call the Excelsior Hotel Ernst and ask if I can come in for breakfast. The friendly lady on the phone asks what day the reservation is for and I tell her that I am standing outside in the rain and want breakfast immediately. I have rarely received such a perfectly to-the-point answer and am kindly invited to come in and have breakfast. The breakfast staff then greeted me warmly, offered me coffee and egg dishes and immediately began to make my day better. I immediately remembered reading what the founder of the hotel in 1863 really wanted. Train travellers are warmly welcomed, pampered and waited upon by their hosts. If Karl Ernst had seen this morning, as he was certainly doing from somewhere on high, he would have been proud of each and every one of you. They are wonderful hosts, but hosts with a heart. Many thanks for your hospitality. Stay healthy, Sincerely, Jan Kremer

The Excelsior Hotel in Cologne is a masterpiece of modern luxury and style. Located directly across from the iconic Cologne Cathedral, the views are simply breathtaking. The sleek, chic design of the interiors, combined with spacious, impeccably clean rooms and premium amenities, ensures a comfortable and elegant stay. Dining is exceptional, with a gourmet restaurant and a sophisticated bar perfect for unwinding. The service is outstanding, with staff going above and beyond to make every moment unforgettable. Ideal for exploring Cologne or enjoying a luxurious retreat, this hotel is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended!

One of my favorite places to stay in Europe. Old school attention to detail and high "guest conscious" service levels. A genuine pleasure within walking distance to my Köln go-to destinations.

We made a reservation for a family holiday for 5 rooms. The hotel send us an invoice and email with a payment request by insecure transfers. The hotel email got hacked and intercepted and forwarded with a fraudulent account. We lost an amount of over, 2500euro because of the hotel insecure payment request. Nevertheless, I understand that Cyber Crime is sophisticated these days. BUT the reaction and action of the hotel reservations manager was horrible. No feedback for days, no call, no any sign of compassion or even plain sympathy. We lost an amount of 2500euro due to their insecure system and hacking. The management does not care about the client, heartless and cold and not any sign of assistance, compensation. Not even a phone call of the manager. This is not the service you would expect at a 5* hotel at all. It's plain unprofessional, impolite and rude. We don't recommend this hotel.

I have been staying at the Excelsior for over 30 years. It is always a pleasure. The service is excellent. The rooms are beautiful. The breakfast is memorable. The location is perfect. (next to the Cathedral) I look forward to my next visit. Thank you to Joseph and the wonderful staff for making my stay wonderful.

Visited Koln with family. This hotel is perfect in so many ways. Everything they do is elegant and efficient. The staff always smiled and spoke very good English. It sits directly across and basically in the shadow of the Cathedral and train station. Great location.
29.10.2024
The hotel is in a good location, just opposite the cathedral, 30 meters away. The room facilities are very poor, and the glass in the lobby is broken. The price-performance ratio is not low, but the hotel doorman service is extremely poor.
