Bar Botanik is the crown jewel of the Wasserturm Hotel Cologne, a landmark hotel housed within a converted historic water tower in the heart of the city. Situated on the 11th floor at a height of 35 metres, the 360-degree rooftop terrace offers a spectacular panorama of Cologne including the iconic twin spires of the celebrated Cathedral. The bar takes its inspiration from the world of botany, with the interior evoking a sophisticated glasshouse where industrial materials meet warm wood, supple leather, natural fabrics and an abundance of lush greenery, creating an atmosphere that effortlessly transitions from a bright secret garden by day to an intimate evening lounge after dark. The drinks menu follows a clear botanical leitmotif, featuring precision-crafted classics alongside inventive original compositions, while an inventive food menu ranges from creative snacks to international dishes with a distinctive twist. Bar Botanik is widely regarded as one of the finest rooftop bars in Cologne.
