Top City Hall Hotel Reviews

Maritim Hotel Köln

10/10 Excellent

"Meilleure chambre d’hôtel que j’ai eue à Cologne. C’était ma 7e visite. Nous sommes arrivés dans la nuit en raison d’un retard de vol. Le personnel au check-in a été super gentil et efficace. La chambre était immense, à bon prix et l’air climatisé fonctionnait parfaitement. Il etait difficile d’avoir de l’eau chaude pour la douche du matin par contre."

Steigenberger Hotel Köln

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed the Steigenberger Hotel and all the restaurants within walking distance."

CityClass Hotel am Dom

10/10 Excellent

"Booked a cathedral view room thinking it would just be a small view of one of the spires or something… we get there and they tell us we have a balcony suite. IT WAS AWESOME! Basically seconds away from the cathedral. Had the best night ever for an insane price. Would definitely stay here if in cologne again."

Hotel Mondial am Dom Cologne - MGallery

10/10 Excellent

"10/10 stay staff was amazing - thank you for the room upgrade and the late check out - this is a must must stay hotel - perfect for getting trains and right in the heart of the city centre - thank you again for the stay"

Opera Hotel Köln

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel"

Rhein-Hotel St. Martin

10/10 Excellent

"Great place- definitely recommend."

URBAN LOFT Cologne

10/10 Excellent

"Double Double-pane windows facing the train tracks kept the noise to a whisper day and night. They gave me a wheelchair accessible room that had the biggest shower I've ever seen in the EU. Breakfast is extra, and continental style, but they had something hot every day and the lobby 'co-working' space was very nice. Only complaint would be the stained and worn carpets on the first floor hallways."

Mauritius Hotel & Therme

8/10 Good

"Pretty good."

Premier Inn Köln City Süd

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable and convenient hotel for a short visit to Koln for a couple of days with my son. Great choice of food in the hotel breakfast buffet, although there were also good local cafe options a short walk from the hotel too. Easy to walk into the city centre (15-25 mins walk) to the major tourist areas/sights. Hotel has a decent amount of on-site parking, although it costs €23 Euros per day, and the entrance to it does involve you having to go around the back of the hotel and down a one-way side road to get to it. We took a wrong turn initially, so had to do another loop to access it. We stayed on the top (17th floor) and there was a great view of the river & skyline from the room. Would definitely stay here again if visiting the area."
