Company history
The Geisel Family began working in the hotel and restaurant industry at the beginning of the 20th century by managing the Löwenbräu beer tent at the Munich Oktoberfest. Afterwards, Karl and Anna Geisel opened the restaurant "Pasinger Weinbauer", which was quickly followed by three further restaurants. In 1935, the family opened their first hotel. The following year, they purchased the Hotel Excelsior, which was followed two years later by the addition of the Hotel Königshof. Three generations later, the management of the hotels, the vineyard, and a wine store is shared between the brothers Carl, Michael, and Stephan Geisel. In 1995, they opened the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Munich's Schwabing district, followed by the opening of their fourth hotel, the Design Hotel Anna, located in Munich's centre at Karlsplatz/Stachus in 2002.
