Hotel bar in the heart of cologne
THE BAR FOR MELLOW NIGHTS IN COLOGNE
PIANO BAR WITH AN INTERNATIONAL VIBE
An insider tip among the Cologne cognoscenti, and well-known internationally, our Piano Bar is where aficionados of good cocktails, wine and champagne come together to round off an evening to the mellifluous sound of the piano.
During the day we offer you coffee and tea specialities as well as homemade cakes and pastries. The Piano Bar is open for you daily from 12 noon.
THE BEST COCKTAILS IN TOWN
There’s something very compelling about watching a cocktail being made. The excitement, the anticipation, the appreciation of poised professional skill. Once it’s ready, our nimble bartenders serve it up on a mahogany panelled bar – from classics to signature creations. We also offer an excellent selection of wine and champagne. Among them are Limited Special Editions of international stars like Lady Gaga or Lenny Kravitz.
IN AROMATIC COMPANY
SMOKING LOUNGE AT THE PIANO BAR, COLOGNE
A good drink also deserves the right accompaniment. In our Piano Bar, this comes in the form of patisserie, small dishes and a careful selection of Davidoff cigars. You can savour their different aromas in our smoking lounge.
