Holiday Inn Express - Cologne - City Centre
Koln, Perlengraben 2 🧭 Map
Great contentious experience while staying at Holiday Inn Express, Colonge, Germany. The amibition, helpful staff, thoughtfully designed the services that required at each occasion of the daily needs. Ideal location and easy to reach the place in minimum time using public transportation. I strongly recommend people worth staying for the value price.
Good hotel clean new. Location is ok. Breakfast is OK. Airconditioning is not so great (i Like really cold airco) the drapes are 100% light resistant but on the top it doesn't really close that well so you see little light coming through. Overall a good hotel.
Rooms on the smallish side but spotless. Staff are very friendly and extremely helpful. Breakfast is typical continental but very filling and freshly prepared
Absolutely incredible stay at Holiday Inn Express Cologne (Köln), highly recommend staying here :)
Parking is great for those that are travelling by car, the car park is directly next to/ underneath the hotel. You can access it through reception, no long walks to find your car.
The room was amazing with fantastic views of the city which I've included. We had everything we needed. The bed was super...

Koln, Kennedystrasse 14 Flughafen 🧭 Map
I love to stay here after late inbound flight
The hotel is located inside the airport, which results in daily parking fees that are quite high—almost half the cost of the room. Also, because it’s close to the airport, you can still hear the sound of planes taking off and landing. However, overall, it’s quite clean. The only other drawback is that it’s relatively far from the city center. All in all, it’s still pretty good.
Good as always, I recommend it 10/10
The hotel is right at the airport, so the location is perfect. Even it’s at the airport, the room was quiet and good to sleep in.
Can recommend it for a night to stay over.
Fantastic stay at the moxy arrives at 3am lovely staff and the free drink was so nice and needed -
Clean hotel only a few meters from the enterance. Check-in was a little slow though

Koln, Neue Weyerstr. 4 🧭 Map
we need to be near the center of Koln.there were two kind of staffs in the hotel office.very nice men and girls working there.nice experience
Hotel wasn't great, the room was too small especially the toile and bathroom. Location was good .
The location slightly far from the central station and other sightseeing , yet it walkable . There is a tram station infront
Of this hotel which will be handy if someone don’t wish to walk much .
Clean, good location and decent enough especially for the price. Easy check in and check out, and accessible to loads of areas.
Good budget hotel for a quick stay with a fairly good breakfast layout. Staff is helpful and courteous. Had a wonderful stay.
This one is just okay. It does the job. It's not a big room, but for the most part it has everything you'd expect. I am a tea addict and there was no kettle. Apparently that's a Germany-wide thing? Which is weird to me personally, because if you step into a Rossmann or a Rewe, you'll get mountains of tea. And yet I had to go back to the reception each time.

Koln, Flandrische Strasse 3-11 🧭 Map
A very pleasant hotel but the pillows were too thin and the duvets too narrow.
Very friendly staff.
Ten from York fire Christmas markets and pals birthday. Rooms were great excellent showers. Breakfast covered all the bases. Staff on reception very helpful. Sorted out Koln Cards for us and 2 taxis back to airport. Would like to return in summer to wander by the river. Thank you.
Laid back hotel, with expectational service.
The rooms are nice and big.
Washroom's a big plus.
Wish they could've had a little refrigerator in the room.
All in all, loved the stay and would 100% recommend.
Although it is a little far from the station, there are many restaurants nearby, so it was convenient. There are only stairs on some floors, so it is a little difficult to move large luggage. However, the staff will help you move your luggage. I had a very comfortable stay.
I think your experiences will vary depending on the room you’re assigned. Based on other people’s pictures, I realize some guests are assigned modern, renovated rooms, while others (like me) are assigned old, rundown, spartan rooms.
I was particularly surprised by:
- the many steps in between the room, the elevator, and the reception. Definitely an accessibility issue.
- the NOISE coming from the...
The room we stayed in this time was in Zone 2. The room size was good and overall comfortable. The price was only RMB 100 more expensive than a single room. But the check-in time was 3pm, which was a bit too late.

Koln, Rubensstraße 33 🧭 Map
I read the reviews and was honestly scared to book this hotel, but overall, most of the reviews were exaggerated In my opinion.
Sure, the hotel is a bit old and the rooms have standard moquettes and old showers, but rooms are spacious with comfortable beds. There's no AC or fridge in most rooms unless you book the Comfort triple. But, if you visit during colder days or during the winter for a few...
the room is clean, the owner is gentle and responsive. The only problem is there is no sound proof at all - considering this is a general flat problem, we can still bear with many random noises coming from outside or inside the building. But there are two permanent residents who share the flat with us cooking and talking to each other from 23pm to 1am, just outside our room. we felt weird to tell them...
The front desk staff was kind, the location was good, and the breakfast was delicious. The shower didn't have hot water, but it was hot that day so it wasn't a problem.
Even though a little bit outside the centre, the location is still at walking distance (25 minutes ) to the Dom. The hotel is a little dated but every thing is clean and in good working order. And the breakfast is great and plentiful. Very good value.
i booked this hotel because all other hotels in Köln with reasonable price were already fully booked. Don't expect much for the price you pay. Hotel is old and street is noisy, room is quite spacious.
This place was very nice. It’s not close the central station but surrounding area was very nice. It’s very close to kolumba museum. Staff and breakfast was very good.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was clean and tidy, and the daily service was very good. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit, which made the experience even better.
The location is great — it’s very close to the train station, which is super convenient. However, it can be a little tricky to get there by Uber since the hotel is situated inside an industrial estate...
The hotel is quite remote, so I had trouble finding it even after taking a taxi.
Otherwise, everything was great, from the generous breakfast to the great staff, air conditioning, and clean rooms with comfortable beds.
Hotel was in an industrial estate which was not expected. The parking was quite limited. The rooms were large and the bathroom was really well fitted and modern. The only down side in the rooms was the pillows. They were awful. The breakfast was good. We had to walk into town to get dinner as there isn't anything really near. The staff were very friendly. Probably wouldn't chose this hotel again due...
The hotel was OK, but I wouldn't book it again.
The room, cleanliness, sauna, and mini gym area were good.
I didn't like the location or breakfast, though.

Artrock Downtown Hotel
Koln, Hohe Straße 30A 50667 Köln,Hohe Straße 🧭 Map
Great location. Everything is within easy reach and it's quiet. They have a handheld hairdryer and disposable slippers. The bed is huge and comfortable.
It's close to Cologne Cathedral, and you could even see a little bit of the top of the cathedral from the balcony!
Because the room was spacious, the heating wasn't very effective.
Also, the entrance to the hotel was a little hard to find.
There was a supermarket called REWE downstairs.
I was able to use hot water from the kettle in what seemed to be the breakfast area in front of the front desk.
Everything is good but we need to walk for 15 mins from station.
The location is convenient and the room is clean and quiet. The space is great too. It is also very convenient to walk to the exhibition venue.
It is very close to the city center and can be reached on foot. Check in at 3 pm. If you arrive early, you can store your luggage for free. The service staff is very enthusiastic. I will choose this hotel next time.
The hotel provides only basic amenities, and is located on the top level of a parking garage which i found a bit inconvenient. Also the fact that we needed to wait for half an hour for check in because reception was empty didn't make it better. The location is in the very center of the city though.

Koln, Alter Deutzer Postweg 95 🧭 Map
The staff is very polite, professional and helpful. Everyone I met is speaking English and are very welcoming. Returning to the hotel from a long day out, our host Philip was extremely helpful to serve us hot food and good spirited conversation to lift our moods and make us feel like home. I definitely recommend this hotel!
Probably because it was messe time, it was quite expensive but even though cheapest of others around.
Rooms were good but it would be better to have some tea or coffee in the rooms (or at least it should be free at reception?). Hot water was free (luckily I had some tea with me) but receptionist guy asked 2-3 times if it is coffee or hot water as if I was cheating him (I felt like a thief😔)
Location...
Good location 3 stations from the city center
The stay at the hotel was very good. The room was comfortable and clean, the staff was attentive, and the facilities were adequate. Some details could be updated, but overall it was a positive experience.
Very standard and very acceptable hotel room. Disappointed the food options basically were snacks from a Petrol station or KFC. On the August weekend when I stayed there was basically nothing else on offer. Of course the S-Bahn wasn't that far away, so going into the city would have been an option.
The hotel is easy to find even by public transport. The bathrooms might be in need of an upgrade as well as some fly nets for the windows as we tackled some mosquitoes. Other than that it’s fine.
the only downside we had, were parents not watching their kids playing loudly and screaming in the parking lot at 5am in the morning followed by elderly people blasting music through their phones while the...

The hotel is in a residential neighborhhod, with pleasant cafes and shops. It is clean, and nicely furnished, with friendly staff, and a good breakfast. The breakfast also offers a good selection of tea, including black teas, as well as coffee. Also, some rooms offer smoking. It is near the U bahn, too.

This is a nice hotel to stay for a night or two. Really nice reception team. Very welcoming and make your stay easy. The hotel is a blast from the past and reminded me of simpler times in the 80s so I loved the decor. The room size is very comfortable. We booked a double bed but got two singles. Seems to be a thing in Europe. But you can push the beds together anyways. Or leave them separate and get...
I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel for two weeks and was thoroughly impressed with the experience.

The hotel has an great location a few minutes walk from the station on the train to / from the airport. It is a 10 - 15 minute walk to the River rhine and attractions such as the Cathedral.

Useful location for a business trip, a short walk from a tram stop a few stops away from Messe and other key locations. Check in is automated and it seemed very efficient, though there was also someone there to help me when I checked in.

We loved our stay here. Unique hostel style hotel with a private bathroom and bunks. Super easy virtual check in and virtual keys so we could unlock everything with our phones. My biggest complaint was there was no shampoo or conditioner on site so we had to run to the store to buy some
Really liked how it was self service, very easy, beautiful rooms felt so fancy. We had a small issue with our TV, emailed the help desk at 10.30pm and by 10.35 we had a staff member there helping us. Incredible.
Comfortable bed, Great location, great sound isolation, but the fresh bedsheets came with lots of different human hair
Really nice, modern hotel. Room was very spacious and comfortable, especially for the price! Better than many hotels in Europe I’ve paid twice the price for. I think the reviews here mostly related to the check-in process. You can easily prepare yourself by saving the phone number before check-in, check your email for the booking code day-of, and call if you don’t get it. The customer service was very...
It's a good hotel, but be ready to call the service, as the check-in caused us some issues. Note that there is only self-check-in. Sadly, the software is buggy and we came across many problems with receiving the entry card. The couple which was checking in right before us had the same issue.
If you are relying solely on a software to welcome your guests, be sure to make the software as smooth as possible...

It is very expensive and difficult to book place if you did not reserved room beforehand
Clean rooms, staff was great, good breakfast and the location was excellent
Really great place near the train station. Staff is really nice ... room are really clean ! Perfect.
No thrills, frills or nonsense excellent small hotel. Very friendly and helpful staff. Great choice for breakfast. Very clean rooms. 5 minute walk from the station on a relatively quit square.
Only downside was the lack of an airco while it was extremely hot and humid.
We had to stay overnight here. Services and breakfast were ok, hotel worth to wear 3 stars.

I don't want to say more. I've already said it in the previous point. I don't understand why Ctrip always insists on reviewing two rooms separately.
The only five-star rating we got was for the front desk staff; they were very nice. However, we couldn't believe this was supposed to be a three-star hotel. We tolerated the extremely small room and bed, and the lack of amenities—almost nothing at all—but in the dead of winter, several bugs were crawling on the bed. It's impossible to give it a friendly five-star rating.
My friend and I stayed here for two nights and it was alright. The staff were super friendly and ready to help with anything. They gave us some good recommendations about public transit in the area. The public transportation was one thing that was lacking. Because of the location of the hotel, the best way to get to the city center is walking about 10 to 15 minutes to the tram stop and then riding...

hôtel bien situé dans le centre ville. de nombreuses chambres. possibilité de chambre seul, bat et petit déjeuner. à réserver à l'avance. à deux pas du centre.
The room was very big and well decorated, the staff was super friendly and helpful with everything! The only thing is that the room didn't had A/C so we struggled a lot with the noise outside because we needed the window open. Was a good experience though

Koln, Heumarkt 6 🧭 Map
Perfect room. Comfy bed. However... our privacy was disrupted during our first day when other guests got into our room using the same key. I suppose this happens because all the rooms on the same floor have the same key, since the key also opens the middle hallway door that goes to the rooms. Also, Saturday night was very noisy due to the pub downstairs.
An absolute must if you want to experience the Kölsche culture, locals, food. Bier is the best and made in-house. Food is typical Cologne culture and amazing. We would have loved to be able to try the entire menu.
Service is excellent and food is fast.
Our hotel room was upstairs. Lovely room and very convenient.
If I could return I would choose to stay here again.
Rooms are spacious and comfortable. We had a room at the backside of the hotel. Just outside of the rooms, there is a ventilation unit, which is running non stop and makes some noise.
When we checked out on Sunday. We wanted to leave our bags in the hotel, and pick them up in the evening before we go back home. The staff told us we had to be back before 2 pm. after that time the entrance would be...
Good Hotel, good services, suitable prices
Excellent position to explore the city. The hotel is connected to a brewery

Located in great area, there's a great pub downstairs where you can get a free Bier, good German food and nice welcoming from the bartender. Only 2 tram-stops away from Koelnmesse.

Hygiene: To be honest, the hygiene is still quite clean
Quiet location, at the end of a residential area, surroundings not so nice, about a 10 minute walk to the tram to the city center. Simple, large rooms, good temperature. Good breakfast. Small bar. Very nice reception. Absolutely adequate for one night on a business trip.

Plus, buses conveniently run right past the hotel!

Although a little on the pricey side, it offers clean, nicely furnished rooms and a varied breakfast buffet. The staff are competent, but lack warmth. The tram stop is just a few minutes' walk away.

I did, but I didn't realize after 9pm there will also be no lifts available....so had to carry 23kgs x 2 pcs upstairs by myself...
This was the only disadvantage I'd say.

Hotel was great. Middle of everything. But room was not cleaned..same hairs and dust on the floor after 5 days..and it was dirty when i went there. Staff was supernice. 🫶🏻
Nice clean rooms with plenty of space, comfortable beds, great bathroom. Perfect for that price. air-conditioning worked very well too.
Staff was very friendly.
It is decent.
Overall it was good, the placement is good and the staff was good. They helped us with parking in their garage that is just outside. The downside was that it was 30 degrees and we couldent get the room temperatur down so we had aprox the same outside temperatur inside, was hard too cool off when going too sleep.
Good location. Updated interior. AC did not work. Big window and decently equipped. Fantastic for a good price.
I recently stayed at this hotel for a short trip. The room was okay—clean and functional—but nothing particularly stood out. It had all the basic amenities you'd expect, but there wasn’t much in the way of charm or added comfort. If you're just looking for a place to sleep, it does the job, but don’t expect anything luxurious or memorable.
