Top University of Cologne Hotel Reviews

Hilton Cologne

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean. Close to train station and restaurants"

Mauritius Hotel & Therme

8/10 Good

"Hotel is in a great location - just off the beaten track but close to everything one needs. Close to shops, restaurants and transport links (there's an underground entrance hidden near by). The room (2nd floor) was good; clean, large, AC, etc - only problem was flooding by shower. Breakfast is very good - wide choice. Didn't use Spa. Would stay here again."

Premier Inn Köln City Süd

10/10 Excellent

"Très bon séjour ! L’hôtel est très agréable, propre et confortable. Le personnel est accueillant et sympathique. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour et nous reviendrons avec plaisir. Je recommande vivement cet hôtel !"

NunoHotel Köln City

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was in an excellent location with easy access to public transport. The host was very welcoming and gave great advice on what to see and do. We really enjoyed our time in Cologne."

Novotel Köln City

8/10 Good

"This was a lovely stay and met all our needs as a family of 4. Splitting the sofa bed to have the beds apart a bit would've worked a bit better for us but that's a personal thing. The main bed was really comfy! Water pressure was crap so that needs addressed however I do think they are maybe just being more cautious with water use given the heat waves! So that's ok. It's not a bad location at all. Rooms really quiet. We used the bar area and the possibility to buy a few drinks/snacks from the fridges across from the reception was great. I'd recommend the hotel to friends"

AMERON Köln Hotel Regent

8/10 Good

"The hotel was very clean, staff helpful. There is parking, but I didn’t need it as there is a tram link into the city & uber also comes to the hotel. If you need your room cleaned during your stay you do have to ask for this."

Dorint Hotel am Heumarkt Köln

8/10 Good

"The only one thing that I didn't like was AC"

Lindner Hotel Cologne City Plaza, part of JdV by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent
