"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."

Premier Inn Köln City Mediapark

8/10 Good

"Very large room compare with other Premier Inns, though it’s older building Very close to train stations, laundromat, bakery and grocery store AC was available and it was a life saver"

Maritim Hotel Köln

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at the Maritim Hotel Köln and would happily stay here again. The room was spotless when we arrived, and we really appreciated having reliable air conditioning during some warm July days. The hotel is in an excellent location, it is an easy walk to Cologne Cathedral, the Old Town, the Rhine, and plenty of great restaurants and shops. We were able to explore most of the city centre on foot, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The staff were consistently friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visit. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and everyone we interacted with made us feel welcome. If I had to find one small criticism, it would be that the elevators could be a little slow during busy times, but it was a very minor inconvenience and didn’t take away from an otherwise excellent experience. Overall, this is a clean, comfortable, well located hotel with outstanding staff, and we’d recommend it to anyone visiting Cologne."

Lindner Hotel Cologne City Plaza, part of JdV by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"My wife spotted this hotel - it was a the same price as a couple I had seen, but the reviews were better and it didn't disappoint. Super breakfast, helpful staff, air-conditioned, well maintained and a great location just a 15 minute walk fro the station / cathedral. We saw the hotels I had identified on-line which were on top of busy roads, and we were so pleased we stayed here."
