Our Landmark hotel, the 'Hotel des Colonies”, combines in 97 guest rooms yesterday’s charm with today’s comfort.

Built in 1906, the turbulent course of history has occupied Hotel des Colonies ever since. It served as headquarters to the German military as well as the British and American liberation armies during both World Wars. The Americans found the hotel’s location so pleasant, they stayed to renovate it from a '1900' into a 'fifties' style property. The hotel is still steeped in tradition as the interior design despite renovations continues to reflect this unique style of the 20th century.
