FAQs about hotels in Cologne
From Antiquity to Modernity in Cozy Cologne
Founded by the Romans in 38 BC and idyllically located on the Rhine River, Cologne offers the perfect blend of historical and modern Germany. There’s no place more picturesque to drink a Kolsch beer and eat a schnitzel than on the banks of the River Rhine. Here you’ll find the Altstad, or Old Town, with the impressive Cologne Dom on the skyline.
Visitors to Cologne in November can dance the days away at the Carnival Parade. In December, no trip to Cologne’s magical Christmas markets is complete without a steaming mug of Gluhwein.
The charm extends to other seasons as well, thanks to the medieval wonders of the Cologne Cathedral and the Twelve Romanesque churches. Learn about the city’s history at the Roman-Germanic Museum or take a postmodern approach at Museum Ludwig. Whether historic or culinary, a trip to the Chocolate Museum can complete any tour.
Booking.com offers 260 different accommodations, ranging from apartments to mid-budget hotels to guest houses. So whether you’re stepping out of a plane at the Cologne Bonn Airport or a shop on Hohe Strasse, you will be sure to have a cozy room for those cool European nights.

The city of Cologne is amazing when you love to see old buildings mixed with good shopping and great food and drinks. We went to very many places, but there are so many more that we have to visit! Everywhere you go you will find something new and exciting! It is a great place to go for a few days. When you use the metro you can go anywhere in the city within minutes for a decent price.

A city where you can do a lot of good sight-seeing like the Cathedral, shopping and relaxing in the parks and botanical garden. Lot's of good restaurants. The traffic is hectic and you need to be very alert when driving around in the city. Lot's of parkings availble, easy to find and reach. Not too expensive. Please be aware that on Sunday shops are closed!

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.StuartUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0
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.ArjanNetherlands - 10Scored 10

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.....Skovorodko

- 7.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 730 reviewsLovely family run hotel in the centre of cologne. Bed was extremely comfortable, the room was warm (it’s chilly in December), the breakfast was delicious and the wee touches you get from a boutique hotel really added to the personality of the place (we were given a chocolate St Nicholas/Santa upon arrival). The couple running it are very friendly and more than happy to help you get the most out of your stay with ideas of what to visit and where to eat. Would highly recommend.Elle MowatUnited Kingdom

The room is small by USA standards, but clean and plenty big enough for the time I spent in the room. Breakfast is simple, but a bargain. Everything was fresh. Dining area formal. Always someone there to add food or assist. Great location for shopping and touring all over Cologne. Very convenient to the train station. I definitely recommend this hotel.EllenUnited States of America
