Originally built as a post station in 1804, it quickly became a favored meeting place for artists, intellectuals and politicians. The building underwent extensive renovations in the 1950s following damage during World War II, restoring its neo-classical facade. Throughout its history, Frankfurter Hof has hosted numerous cultural events and continues to serve as an important social hub within the city. Its ballroom is known for its elegant architecture and acoustics making it a venue for diverse performances. The hotel remains privately owned by the Kress family who acquired it in 1949.
