The ex-Radisson-turned-Best Western. Overall pretty neat, however it’s unfortunate there is no fridge in the room in a 4-star hotel. They stored my food at the reception, but that’s not the most convenient.
The location is good, in a walking distance everywhere. The staff is friendly and the room is very large. No complaints here.

Based ideally next to the train station and opposite the cathedral. Only minutes away from the river and between the old town and new.
Some noise in the evening. But expected given the location.
Transportation options were great and in multi language settings.
A good choice of restaurants for all budgets.

I visited Cologne many times and I love it!
I visited Cologne many times and I love it! This time we parked the car at the Köln Arcaden, a big shopping mall in Köln-Deutz on the other side of the Rhine. You can buy a 24 hour ticket there for just €4! But remember to buy this within one hour after driving in. And try to leave a bit earlier to be sure not to pay extra. This happened to me, I had to pay an extra €10, I consider this still cheap for 24 hours parking in a big city. U Bahn and S Bahn station is at walking distance from the mall and you are in the centre in a few stops. The mall itself is fine too by the way.

Cologne was the first place in Germany I had visited 30 years ago. I fell in love with the city then and I still feel the same about it now. I was here this time for a trade fair and it was a great trip with new connections made. It has everything you need. Excellent city.

A cool city that you should definitely visit.
A cool city that you should definitely visit. But be careful when booking hotels, do your research carefully. The same one and I ended up with what I believe are scammers. We traveled in April 2024, and found an inexpensive hotel Downtown Ehrenfeld on booking.
1 night in Cologne
booked a room. check-in after 16.00 - approx. I received a message from the booking office that bed linen is not included in the price, but you can pay an additional 10 euros per set and get.... well, okay, on the road, we won’t change anything, we’ll take it extra....
We arrived at 17.00 and discovered there was no bedding. At the reception we said we need bedding, we are ready to pay extra, they suggested we call Mr. Otto. They gave me a phone number. Ok, let's hurry to see the city, then we'll call you when we get back. We returned at 22.00 - tomorrow we will continue on. We call Mr. Otto - and the answer is: a room without linen, it’s your problem that you don’t have bed linen with you, I can’t help you, but you’ll be indignant and call the police. - this is the result of the conversation... they spat, went to the room, put a jacket under their head, and without undressing went to bed early in the morning on the road. We just started to fall asleep, we hear in the next room they come in and, finding themselves in the same situation, try to resolve the issue with the bed linen and, having received the same thing in response, people did not want to put up with it, turned around, spat on the lost money and left. In the morning we left with an impression of the contrasting city of Cologne - I did not expect that in 2024, in Germany, you could run into such deception of customers. Conclusion - don’t relax, otherwise.....

The city has a lot of roman history and it is well known for its amazing cathedral and the nice view of the cathedral and the Hohenzollern bridge.
It's not a big city so you can visit the most important places (excluding museums) in a day and you don't really need to be taking trains to move around. The city center and the surroundings are quite beautiful: Alter markt, Heumarkt, the river itself and the visits from the "Cologne triangle" building.
Also a nice walk is: from the city center through Schildergasse street (shoping street) go to Neumarkt and then Rudolfplatz where you can visit the roman door.
An interesting neighbourhood to visit is Ehrenfeld where you can take nice pictures related to modern art, graffiti, etc.
If you plan to visit some museums, I would recommend "NS-Documentation Center" (for those interested in the WW2 history), the Cathedral's treasury rooms and the Ludwig Museum.
There are also other interesting museums, like the chocolate's musems (rather overrated in my opinion), the mustard museum and the "Kölnisches Stadtmuseum" (the last one being a nice building with a "Ford fiesta" on the roof.
If you have more time to spend on the city, visit the zoom, the flora gardens, some parks, etc. There is also a big therme named "Claudius Therme".
With the train you can also visit some nices places not too far away: Bonn, Düsseldorf, Aachen or Königswinter are well worth a visit.
Also, check out for events taking place in the Kölnmesse.
Our stay at Eden Hotel Früh am Dom was the perfect launching spot for beginning our Rhine cruise that started in Cologne. We easily were able to get to the hotel from the train station by walking (with our suitcases) around the Cologne Cathedral. The staff were friendly and accommodating, the room was both comfortable and large enough for us and our luggage, and breakfast was very good (especially for those of us from North America that are accustomed to rather meager breakfasts at our hotels).
The hotel is situated in a quiet area of Cologne. It is located adjacent to MacD, so a quick bite is always possible. The hotel in addition to breakfast has a facility to order Pizza till 11.00 at night. They also have a moderately stocked bar. There are two types of parking, if you are early or lucky enough, you can park for free which is limited in number. The paid parking space is large and can accommodate over 25 vehicles at a time. I managed to get a free parking spot on all three days.
Best hotel are the one who give us an upgrade room when available without needed to be asked, and this hotel is one of them, many thanks for the upgrade!! Location is also best because it's directly right at the side of Köllner Dom and inside the hotel is still silence so I can sleep very comfortable. The hotel is already in the center so only walking distance to most tourism place. Staff are also friendly, a very good 1 night stay spent at Cologne.
Perfect for the final day of a long Germany trip where we needed convenient access for a morning train and to the tourist sites. Rooms are a little small but clean and nicely furnished. Breakfast was on point with the basics all available. Friendly staff got us into one of our two rooms when we arrived by train 11am, so we were able to stow the luggage and begin enjoying the city. Bonus: many rooms have a view of the Dom.
We picked this hotel because it is conveniently located for train travel. We arrived from London on the Eurostar and stayed for one night, enroute to our final destination of Switzerland. The hotel is modern in decor, the beds are comfy, and the breakfast buffet was excellent. All in all, this is a lovely hotel. We were sorry to be not staying longer in Cologne, but Switzerland beckoned.
acom-Hotel Cologne was located in a great place to visit the Cathedral and city centre. Although it was next to the train station you could hardly hear the trains from the room. The room was spacious and comfortable. It was clean with clean linen provided. It had a small bar fridge when made it easy to store breakfast food. The staff were friendly and helpful.
The hotel is situated in the very centre of Cologne, from where you can reach all other parts of town. The room was very nice, spacious, clean, had a modern bathroom & great terrace. The staff is very responsive & friendly. You really have all you want for a relaxed stay in a smaller boutique hotel.
nice modern hotel next to MediaPark, everything clean, friendly staff, my room was already ready in the morning although I didn’t request early check in, very great breakfast with many choices, definitely the best hotel I have stayed in Cologne
The rooms were excellent, very comfortabel with very goods beds. The breakfast was luxerious and the hotel is located in the city centre of Cologne. The hotel has an own car park, but on a very short walking distance is also a public car park.
We had a wonderful time at the Pullman Hotel,
there have a really nice staff,
as well as a good, tasty, and diverse breakfast.
moreover, the hotel is at a great location for shopping, eating, and going out, in the main area of Cologne.
This is my standard hotel for Cologne and suroundings.
You have a fully fledged spa connected to the hotel, so the best relaxation ever after a day full of work.
On top it's in the center, if you want to go out and see Cologne!
Great location, reasonably priced parking. Helpful staff. Not a luxury hotel, but safe, clean, and comfortable. Excellent base for exploring the historic part of Cologne. Close to the Cathedral and a lot of other attractions.
Straight forward what you see is what you get hotel. superb location for those who need to be in that area of cologne and access to a parking garage next door. Good breakfast and clean rooms, although somewhat outdated.
Short stay for two days in Cologne. Hotel was well located. Check in staff were very friendly and helpful.
Room was good, fresh linen, very nice pillows. Breakfast was sumptuous. Staff were friendly
The hotel is 3-5 mins walk from the airport but the best part is that you have a direct train connection to the city centre (12-17 mins by train).
