Situated in the banking quarter opposite the Palmengarten, Frankfurt's lovely botanical gardens, this hotel is housed in a art nouveau building. Modernized to a very high standard, the rooms demonstrate a graceful modernity reflecting the building's opulence. The hotel has a number of one- and two-room apartments with kitchenette, fax, modem and answer phone. There's also a highly renowned restaurant, the Bastei, which offers terrific (and pricey) nouvelle cuisine dishes.
