Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Neckarstraße borders the Bahnhofsviertel and the financial district, putting Willy-Brandt-Platz and the opera house a short walk away.
The rooms
Mid-century mahogany and velvet furnish the bedrooms, opening to herringbone marble bathrooms with rainfall showers.
The spa
Low green daybeds sit in dark slate alcoves beneath slatted timber ceilings, with massage and facial treatments available.
The sauna and gym
A Finnish sauna sits alongside sensory showers, while the fitness studio provides cardio equipment and free weights.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Le Petit Royal Frankfurt
The brasserie serves French bistro classics and quality steaks beneath contemporary art, backed by a German and French wine list.

Green velvet stools line the French Bento Bar, which mixes Japanese-inspired evening cocktails alongside creative bar snacks.

Built in the late nineteenth century as commercial residences, the four Gründerzeit villas were restored and united in 2019.
