INA Hotel Royal
Staff were helpful and friendly, room was clean and comfortable, the only drawback was that it was slightly too warm although that was easily fixed by keeping the window open. Would definitely recommend it. Only a short walk to the main Hauptbahnhof and stadt zentrum.

Massive thank you to the man who allowed me to check in super early after my 5:45am flight, and for storing my luggage in your staff office when I went to the spa (you really are an angel). Exceptional breakfast (croissants, breads, jams, hams, cheeses, porridge/muesli, eggs, fruit and so much more). ...

NunoHotel Köln City
Lage Barbarossaplatz, sehr zentral. Preis ist etwas zu hoch, weil die Zimmer sind sehr klein. Parkplatz ist vorhanden, muss besser reserviert sein. Frühstück ist gut, Ausstattung sehr geschmackvoll. Service freundlich und hilfsbereit.
