One of the oldest city hotels in Europe – founded in 1681 as an inn for gentlemen, rebuilt in 1844 as a Grand Hotel – receives guests from all over the world.

Such a tradition demands commitment – which we live out fully every day. Learn more about the history and people who are part of this tradition: Experience the living past.

Man has always been a traveller. Hospitality characterises our culture. So it is no wonder that it is in inns and hotels in particular that history lives on.

The guestbook of the Grand Hotel Les Trois Rois reads like a who’s who of world history. Empress Michiko of Japan, James Joyce and Pablo Picasso: were all guests for a while at our hotel.

Feeling at home
101 rooms and suites are at the disposal of our guests. They combine history with the latest comfort.

From the junior rooms through to the luxurious Suite Les Trois Rois in the art deco style: you will be completely comfortable in any one of our elegantly furnished guest rooms. Our employees, with their dedicated service, will ensure that you always feel at home.

Rooftop Suite “Les Trois Rois”
This elegant and spacious art deco suite with 250 m² of living space is the very epitomy of elegant luxury: two bedrooms, three bathrooms, a cosy sitting room with a fireplace and two dining tables and a television and work space are all part of what it has to offer.

The exclusive atmosphere is palpable throughout the suite – through to the outdoor jacuzzi on the roof terrace, which offers fresh perspectives with its panorama view over the city and the Rhine.

River Suite Napoleon
Napoléon Bonaparte never actually spent a night here – but this luxuriously appointed, lime-green suite with a view over the Rhine is reminiscent of the state banquet held in his honour at the old inn in 1797.

The ceiling panel with its cloudy sky and the charming frescoes and stucco work transport you back to the Napoleonic era: It is in the corner salon in particular, with its painted medallions and gold-plated ornamentation, that you will be transported back in time (approx. 70 m²).

Culinary delights
Our two restaurants await you with creations that delight. Be they French haute cuisine, newly interpreted with Mediterranean and Asian influences in the Cheval Blanc by Peter Knogl or Swiss and French brasserie specialities with ingredients fresh from the market in our Brasserie: Experience for yourself how wonderful and intense culinary delights can be.

Philosophy
Peter Knogl uses the finest ingredients and focusses on the taste of the product itself. His aim is to put the real taste of the product straightforward in the center of his creations.

This is how he enthuses his guests again and again, because, according to Knogl: “The greatest art in cooking is to ideally combine the ingredients and aromas while preserving the taste of the central product.”

Cuisine
French haute cuisine, reinterpreted with Mediterranean and Asian influences – the creations of Chef Peter Knogl and his team at Cheval Blanc are full of culinary surprises, always with a great sense of style and always remaining true to his style.
