"This is a great location for exploring Cologne on foot. Good restaurants nearby and kiosks for sandwiches, pastries and coffee, walk to the main train station and most (or maybe all) of the typical things visitors do in this awesome city. It's not in a location overrun with the frenetic tourist "vibe", which is perfect if you've been in that all day. Beautiful St. Gereon's cathedral is only about a block away. There's a lovely park and fountain across the street. There's a nice, chic little...

Hilton Cologne

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were beautiful. We had the family room which consisted of 2 adjoining rooms. Each had a king size bed and seating area plus own bath with shower and one with shower and bath. Very spacious, clean and overall excellent room for a family of 4+."

HansaDom Hotel Köln Central by Mayburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient location (within minutes walk and in view of hotel) to Metro Station and Train to the Airport. Lots local restaurants within short walk and 15/20mins to Cathedral and Town Centre. . I booked the Hotel for 2 nights and then looked at the negative reviews, so I was a little worried 🤔🤞 However, I was not disappointed. My double room on first floor was facing the main rood outside, I didn't notice any noise at night from outside or other guests. The room and bed were clean and the bed was comfortable. The room wasn't too hot/cold (November) and the window could be opened. The furniture and fittings maybe a little dated, but perfectly functional. The toilet and shower room were very modern with his/her sink and large shower. Staff at reception were very helpful and when I visited onsite 24hrs. Code was provided to enter after a certain time or ring bell for access which I didn't need to use. Would stay again as this reasonably priced hotel if visiting Cologne again."

Maritim Hotel Köln

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was welcoming, friendly and helpful. Atrium is amazing. Location right on the Rhine, near the old city and walking zone. Room was very clean. Some items are dated. Fitness center is small and basic but enough to get a workout done. Nice little pool, sauna and steam room. The Belvedere restaurant is very nice with wonderful views of the Rhine and the church. We enjoyed our stay and would return."

Ruby Ella Hotel Cologne by IHG
