    What a fantastic stay! The Classic Double Room was spacious and immaculate, and the breakfast was top-notch with freshly prepared items. The lovely gesture of a crib and games for our granddaughter made our family feel so welcomed.

    The lack of key card systems feels outdated!!! Noise disturbances from events and poor soundproofing can overshadow the hotel’s appeal.

    cozy room
    beautiful decor
    relaxing spa
    limited breakfast variety

    I had a fantastic time during my stay, especially enjoying the cozy room and the beautiful decor. The spa was a real treat with the steam room and massage options that helped me unwind after a long day. My only small gripe was that the breakfast options could have had a bit more variety, but overall, it was an amazing experience! 🌟

    gourmet breakfast
    checkout inconvenience
    street noise
    room location variability

    Staying here was a delightful experience, with a perfect location just steps from the Cathedral and railway station. The staff were exceptionally attentive, making us feel at home and ensuring our needs were met. The heated bathroom floor in our room added a touch of luxury to our stay. Breakfast at the restaurant was outstanding, showcasing gourmet products. However, the rain made our checkout a bit inconvenient, as we struggled with our luggage. Additionally, some street noise could be heard early in the morning, but it didn’t detract from our overall visit.

    Our stay was unforgettable! ! The staff went above and beyond when I fell ill, finding a doctor who came straight to our room at night!

    It wasn’t exactly cheap, but honestly, it was still worth every penny.

    I loved being just steps away from the stunning Cologne Cathedral and only a short walk to the beautiful Hohenzollern Bridge, making city strolls incredibly enjoyable, and the bar had awesome cocktails that added to my experience in this lovely gem.

    The room was spacious and luxurious, really giving off that elegant vibe. The bed was super comfy, perfect for sinking in after a long day. Plus, the mini bar was free, which is a nice touch. I loved that it had a large bathroom, and the historic charm of the place just added to the experience. But, I did notice a few areas could use some updates.
