The front lobby doubles as a library with plush leather chairs, witty German cartoons hang on the walls, and imposing German poetry books and high art are stacked on the shelves. Conservative, tasteful, friendly, chic but not trendy, it will certainly satisfy those looking for a comforting and relaxing atmosphere after a hard day. The rooms are a bit small, even for Frankfurt, but the other niceties of this erudite looking hotel make up for it.
