Excelsior Hotel Ernst

Trankgasse 1-5
Cologne, 50667
Germany

OFFER ID H13061

Overview Accommodations Facilities & Services Dining Guides Directions
Accommodations

Number of Rooms: 134

What is luxury? We believe the answer to this question is most definitely “exceptional”. Exceptional service, exceptional atmosphere, and exceptional attention to detail. Because what we offer you is a home like no other. A home that’s all about your comfort and wellbeing. And one that’s far, far removed from everyday life…

Available Room Types

Classic Single Room

  Close

Classic Single Room

165 sqft. The Classic Single rooms live up to their name: the classic, elegant furnishing style combined with a location towards the quiet inner courtyard offers perfect comfort for single travellers. The harmonious colours contribute to a comfortable atmosphere. No Connection.

Classic Double Room

  Close

Classic Double Room

270 sqft. Our Classic Double room is spacious and individually designed: a comfortable seating area in warm colours and a vintage desk ooze subtle luxury. The many special features and the marble bathroom create a familiar, almost romantic atmosphere. All Classic Double rooms can be booked with either a twin or double bed. Connects to Suite.

Grand Superior Room

  Close

Grand Superior Room

300 sqft. If you’re looking for a luxurious room with a special twist, you’ll find it in our Grand Superior. Because it stands out from our Classic rooms in many small but telling ways: eye-catching colours, patterned fabrics, velvet upholstery or golden borders make something unique out of every Grand Superior room. Connects to Grand Superior and Excelsior Suite.

Deluxe Room

  Close

Deluxe Room

345 sqft. The Hanseatic wing in the Excelsior is an ode to the one-time “Hanseatic City of Cologne”. To a bustling commercial metropolis, and to the splendour of luxurious cruise ships that once sailed along the Rhine. Today, the Deluxe Rooms in our Hanseatic wing radiate this splendour with their high-quality wood and light-coloured fabrics. Connects to Deluxe Room or Junior Suite.

Grand Deluxe Room

  Close

Grand Deluxe Room

365 sqft. There’s no place better to immerse yourself in the Cologne vibe than right next to the cathedral. And everyone who looks around our Grand Deluxe room will discover a piece of Cologne on photographs in every corner. The individual design, bold colours, carpeted floors and a marble bathroom make each Grand Deluxe room a piece of luxury in the heart of the cathedral city. No Connection.

Junior Suite

  Close

Junior Suite

430 sqft. The Junior Suites of the Hanseatic wing offer an exciting mix of tradition and innovation over approx. 40 square metres. Stylish furniture and high-quality fabrics on the one hand; modern, comfortable bathroom including a rain shower on the other. The bedroom can be separated from the adjoining living area by an elegant smoked glass door. A walk-in dressing and cloakroom area offers maximum convenience. Connects to Deluxe.

Suite

  Close

Suite

485 sqft. Feeling at home is the credo in our suites, which offer separate living and sleeping areas. A wealth of details, high-quality furniture and fabrics as well as a natural stone bathroom are sure to make your stay a special experience. In the coZy seating area in the living room you can just sit back and relax. Connects to Suite or Classic Double Room.

Executive Suite

  Close

Executive Suite

645 sqft. Business trips or meetings also deserve a dash of elegance. You won’t just find this in our big conference rooms, but also in our Executive Suite. If you wish, you can hold a private meeting here with a conference table, laptop connections and a screen for presentations. And in the separate living and sleeping areas there’s more than enough space to work and relax. No connection.

Cathedral View Suite

  Close

Cathedral View Suite

540 sqft. Many people in Cologne would love to have it, but guests in our Cathedral View Suite are the lucky ones: they can enjoy a perfect view of Cologne Cathedral. From here you can marvel at Cologne’s most famous landmark around the clock. And if you cast your eyes away from the window for a moment, you’ll also enjoy the bright and elegant furnishings in your suite. Connects to Excelsior Suite.

Excelsior Suite

  Close

Excelsior Suite

875 sqft. Cologne is a feeling, they say. Just like luxury. How exactly does this feeling come about? From the fusion of numerous details into a unique overall picture. Our Excelsior Suite is the heart and soul of our hotel, combining Cologne and luxury in a very special way. Through hand-picked rarities and unique designs, through an interplay of fine fabrics and precious woods – and of course an unbeatable view of Cologne Cathedral, the heart of our city. Connects to Grand Superior Room and Cathedral View Suite.
