Top New Town Hotel Reviews

Hilton Cologne

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is amazing. The bar was very good but understaffed, I felt bad for one lady working really hard and overtime because someone called in and didn’t get any help. Restaurant was so slow for food. We ordered and waited an hour and never even got bread. So we left before our food came and just went to KFC"

Maritim Hotel Köln

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. This was our second time staying here due to the helpfulness of staff and the great location. The only issue I had this time was a malfunctioning public toilet in the back of the main area near the orders train bridge that made walking through there so, so awful. Luckily, going that way isn’t necessary, but it still probably should have been addressed before it got to that state. Still, I understand not everything can be controlled, and everything else about our trip was perfect. I will return here when I am in Cologne again."

Excelsior Hotel Ernst am Dom

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a beautiful hotel right in the center of the city. I was just passing through, on the way to Austria, so I only stayed for one night. I would have liked to stayed for longer. Maybe next time. The staff were very polite and helpful. Buffet breakfast was quite nice. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone."

INA Hotel Royal

8/10 Good

"I liked how close to one of the train stations it was. The staff was nice to talk to and the state of the room was fine, but like the breakfast I didn't interact with it much so I can't say much about it. The sleeping room was like a refitted home room with two beds scrunched together to make a very wide one. I appreciated the lockable separation of bathroom and sleeping space despite being alone. Showers worked well enough and heated up right away, and there is no air conditioner although the room is insulated well enough. I recommend bringing a fan you can plug in if you're going in the summer, but that goes for all German housing. It is close to the train station and a stop or two away from the main köln station to the Dom, or you can take the 14ish minute walk there. The outlets are all EU type. Make sure to bring two plugs and some cables, especially if you have many devices you want to charge. No room microwave, so do not expect to heat things up, but there are döner shops very close by late at night you can use instead of cup noodles or something. As far as I saw it's all street parking, so I recommend this place if you are exclusively taking the train. I'm sure you can find parking elsewhere, but it is what it is. Recommended for single or couples who want to get around köln and the surrounding areas easily by public transport and relatively close to the Dom at a reasonable price compared to other hotels in the inner city."
