Perfect Location if you want to be in the middle of Cologne. Very nice swimming pool and highly air-conditioned wellness facilities. The bar was a nice place for meetings and work, but all self service and no healthy foods. I was expecting at least to get some beer on draft. Especially because I was there during a heat wave, the hotel provided for all my needs. The staff was very nice. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and would happily stay in that hotel again.

Great clean, modern hotel. It is a bit off the beaten path, but there's a train station a couple of blocks away that takes you to the Hauptbahnhof, so very convenient. One of the best hotel breakfasts I've had in a long time.

Brilliant Stay

This hotel saved our trip to Cologne. After an awful stay elsewhere the night before, we were able to get a late booking. Our apartment was spacious and cool - in the oppressive heat outside - clean and well equipped with its own small kitchen area and a nice bathroom. The breakfasts were amazing and the pool was nice to use as well, if a little on the cool side.

Parking was 24€ per day and breakfast was also roughly 24€ per person so even though the price for the stay was reasonable, the after costs were relative to a more expensive hotel, closer to the cathedral. It was a nice hotel though and staff were really nice! We would stay closer to the Cathedral next time because there were more food options closer and walking back was a bit tiring after a long day out. Al
