Presiding over Kaiserplatz in central Frankfurt like a grand old dame, the magnificent Steigenberger Frankfurter Hof provides a luxurious city address with gracious service along with a storied past. Part of the prestigious Deutsche Hospitality group of hotels, the elegant property is positioned in the city’s financial district, making it equally ideal for corporate gatherings and leisure getaways. In fact, the 19 meeting and event rooms have been recently renovated, and event-planning services are available to help you organize everything from an intimate group gathering to a lavish affair in the Festaal (ballroom) or Salon. Among the meeting amenities are microphones, projectors, LCD screens and a simultaneous translation booth.

 But don’t limit yourself to business; The property is also an ideal choice for a leisure getaway. Choose a spacious, newly renovated grand deluxe room with a soothing wood-toned vibe, king-sized bed, Nespresso coffee machine and spa access. In the oversized marble bathroom, you’ll find a deep soaking tub and a separate rainshower with color light therapy. As you soak beneath the flow of water, colors move throughout the spectrum, creating an oasis-like experience.

WiFi is complimentary throughout the hotel, and the expansive wellness area rivals that of a resort spa. The Day Spa Suite is perfect for couples, and three-hour escapes allow for time in the private sauna and bathing space, along with massages and indulgent therapies. In the main spa, guests can relax in the sauna with a Turkish bath, nail bar, gentleman’s barber and dedicated women’s sauna area. For dining, Restaurant Français offers a menu of scrumptious dishes from chef Patrick Bittner and a wine list with more than 500 choices. For breakfast, there’s the Hofgarten with indoor and outdoor seating; and for casual dining, the Art Deco OSCAR’S brasserie is perfect — the brasserie also has a terrace where you can enjoy a light meal or a specialty coffee while watching the cityscape. There’s also a cozy Cigarrum for wine, fine rums and carefully curated cigars, and the Autorenbar (Author’s Bar), popular for meetings, cocktails and the decadent Royal High Tea served at midday.
