"Very good hotel. Beautiful and classy."

Mercure Hotel Severinshof Köln City

10/10 Excellent

"My family and I have stayed in this hotel many times over the last 20 years. It has been a "home away from home" since our children were little and we used to book the corner "suites". The staff have always been competent and friendly and the facilities attractive and clean. The carpets in the hallways could do with a refresh but in all other respects, the hotel is just about perfect. Car drivers can park under the hotel once they have negotiated the traffic and one-way systems. The hotel is conveniently located beside the U-Bahn station from where you can reach the whole city. It's a short walk north to the city centre (shopping, Dom and Bahnhof). Walk south along the pleasant Severinsstraße to Chlodwigplatz, a lively hub of activity, restaurants and bars and from where you can easily reach the Rhine."
