My business trip to Cologne was a great experience overall, and staying at The New Yorker Hotel Köln-Messe made it even better. The hotel’s location is fantastic—just a short 20-minute subway ride from the exhibition center, making commuting seamless both ways. I appreciated the on-site gym, which, while not large, had everything I needed for a solid workout. I used it almost every morning before heading out, and it really helped me stay energized throughout the day. Breakfast was another highlight—fresh, well-prepared, and varied, with excellent local breads and jams that paired perfectly with my coffee. Pricing is surprisingly reasonable for Europe, offering great value without compromising comfort or service. This hotel delivers a perfect balance of convenience, quality, and affordability—definitely my go-to choice for future trips to Cologne.

I always choose this hotel whenever I'm in Cologne for business trips, and it never disappoints. The room is spacious and immaculately clean—perfect for unwinding after a long day.

It's a bit further from the city center, but it's only a short metro ride away, making it convenient without the noise and crowds. The staff are friendly, the amenities are top-notch, and the value for money is excellent. If you're visiting Cologne, this is definitely a hotel worth considering—highly recommend!

The front desk staff was incredibly kind and went above and beyond—she personally prepared the room for my husband’s birthday the next day. The thoughtful touches made it feel truly special, and she took time to explain everything in detail.

We've stayed at the Burns before, but this visit to The Deutz, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel in Cologne was truly exceptional. Our biggest highlight was meeting Marcel Deux at reception—he was incredibly friendly, witty, and highly professional. When we expressed dissatisfaction with our Junior Suite 704, he immediately arranged a room change to Suite 92 with zero hassle. His genuine willingness to help made a lasting impression. The hotel’s central location is perfect for exploring the city—just a short walk to the train station and plenty of great dining options nearby.

Staying at Rheinblick Apartments was an absolute delight.

The fully equipped kitchen made self-catering effortless, and I appreciated that my dog was welcome too—pet-friendly without any hassle. The bathroom is a real highlight: you can enjoy your shower while gazing out at the river, though privacy is easily maintained with the built-in blinds. Overall, this place offers incredible value, comfort, and scenery. If you're looking for a peaceful yet central stay in Cologne with a touch of local charm, this is it—highly recommended.

Staying at this hotel was a great way to explore Cologne. The price was fair, the location was excellent—just steps from trams and buses—and the staff provided very friendly service. One thing to note: there’s no air conditioning in the rooms, but it didn’t affect our comfort at all. If you prefer sleeping with the window open, ask for a room facing the back side of the building, as the front-facing ones can be noisy due to street traffic. Cologne is a big city with over a million residents, so things are lively even on Sundays! Overall, we had a pleasant stay and would definitely recommend it.

Staying at the Holiday Inn - the niu, Mill Cologne Mülheim was an absolutely delightful experience. From the moment I walked in, the staff greeted me with a warm smile and made me feel right at home. The room was spotless, spacious, and incredibly comfortable—my bed was one of the best I've ever slept on. Everything from the modern furnishings to the quiet air conditioning felt thoughtfully designed. I especially appreciated the wide variety of breakfast options, including both international and local favorites, all freshly prepared and delicious. The location is great—just a short metro ride from downtown Cologne, making it easy to explore the city without hassle. Whether you're here for business or leisure, this hotel delivers top-notch quality and value. I’ll definitely be booking again next time I visit Cologne.

Our stay at Kaiser Am Wiener Platz was disappointing overall. We waited a full 45 minutes for check-in despite being told it would only take 15 minutes—this was misleading and frustrating. The staff member who finally arrived claimed she didn’t know our arrival time, which simply isn’t believable. Breakfast was underwhelming—very basic with only a few bread rolls available, and no coffee left by the time we got there. Not even a simple apology was offered. The rooms themselves were spacious and clean, but lacked air conditioning, which made it uncomfortable during warmer hours. The keycard is ridiculously large and doesn’t fit in any small bag or purse. The hotel feels outdated, and the service was notably unfriendly. While the location is decent, the experience didn’t live up to expectations. I won’t be returning, and I’d hesitate recommending this place to others.

This hotel is only suitable for a quick overnight stay. The rooms were not very clean, and there were issues with the plumbing—after taking a shower, water pooled on the bathroom floor because the drain didn’t work properly. The mattress was overly soft and uncomfortable, and the furniture looked outdated. Staff weren’t particularly friendly or welcoming. On the positive side, public transportation stops are right outside, making it easy to get around the city. If you're just passing through and need a basic place to rest, it’s acceptable—but don’t expect much beyond that.
