- SSusanLondon •14 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoAbsolutely superb service and delicious food. The service is impeccable. Before you begin a lovely selection of flavoured fresh butters and delicious bread is brought to you. Then another selection of amuse bouche. All delightful. Our filet mignon was great. Nice mash. At the end of our dinner a tray of gorgeous chocolates was brought for us to choose a few of. Unobtrusive but perfect service. The rooms are beautiful with large paintings and very comfortable seating. It’s quiet. ( hurrah!) Would highly recommend!More infoHanse Stube im Excelsior Hotel ErnstPrice: Expensive• French• Altstadt/Nord•4.7
