Top Cologne Hotel Reviews

Excelsior Hotel Ernst am Dom

Excelsior Hotel Ernst am Dom

10/10 Excellent
"This is a beautiful hotel that dates back decades but feels very modern in style and amenities. It appears in a novel by Graham Greene. I’ve stayed in many high end hotels, but never one with a staff at once so friendly, professional, and helpful. I can’t recommend this hotel enough. It also is perfectly situated next to the Cathedral and museums and near the Rhine and in a vibrant dining and shopping quarter. Stop looking at other hotels in town and see if they’re available!"
