Chez Donati is a piece of Italy - yet only a few steps away from Les Trois Rois.

The menu is varied and offers something for every palate. Those in the know enjoy the generous breakfast buffet from 6am and the splendid view of the Rhine. Every Sunday lunchtime, why not treat yourself to the legendary Sunday buffet brunch.
The Les Trois Bar is the perfect meeting place. Time passes in an instant over an exquisite cocktail, a delicious snack or a fragrant cigar from the humidor. The terrace overlooking the River Rhine or the crackling open fire both make a superb setting for an entertaining tete-a-tete. Connoisseurs enjoy typically English Afternoon Tea.
The Grand Hotel Les Trois Rois pursues its tradition of great hospitality with a new lounge of exception. The new Salon du Cigare is the perfect place to enjoy your cigar with a beautiful view of the River Rhine.
Hotel offers a wide choice of cigars, ranging from classics from Cuba and the Dominican Republic to largely unknown cigar brands from countries not usually considered the source of good cigars.
