What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Not the cheapest option — With rates from £159 per night, some travellers may find better value elsewhere in Cologne, especially given a Value rating of 7.2.
  • 25-minute walk to the old town — If you want to be right next to the cathedral and Domplatte, this hotel requires a decent walk or a short tram ride.
  • Paid extras add up — Breakfast and parking both cost extra, which can increase the final bill for those who drive or prefer a full breakfast.
  • Mixed review scores — While staff and facilities rate well, Service (7.4), Dining (7.4), and Comfort (7.7) trail slightly, suggesting occasional inconsistencies.
