Cologne Hotels with Pools

This hotel is conveniently located near the city’s main attractions. The room was clean and spacious. Breakfast was really nice. There are plenty of choice to choose from. The staff was friendly and supportive.

Had a wonderful 3-night stay at this lovely property. Located just a stone’s throw away from Köln Messe/Deutz station, which was very convenient for us who travelled directly from Frankfurt Airport. Its surrounding was peaceful and quiet. Checking-in by Clemens was a breeze. Clemens was friendly and answered all our queries with patience. He also gave us helpful information on dining options in the vicinity. Our courtyard facing Studio room was spacious and quiet, had every amenity we needed for a comfortable stay. We used the washer and dryer every night and it was definitely a great to have. USB charging ports and power points could be found on both sides of the bed and at sitting area. Internet speed was fast. Was able to screen mirroring with my device and hence we were able to enjoy watching Netflix on the big TV screen. Daily housekeeping had also done a wonderful job of keeping our room clean, replacing our used towels and replenishing the laundry detergent. There was a small indoor pool but we didn’t have the time to use it. Our room didn’t come with breakfast, but we did try it out on one morning. Found that it was a tad overpriced at €22 as the spread wasn’t big and choices were pretty limited, the only disappointment we had of this property. Overall a fantastic stay and is value for money. Would strongly recommend this property to anyone who is visiting Cologne.

The best hotel in Germany. The western restaurant on the second floor is especially amazing. You need to make reservations in advance at night. The details of the service are great. The hotel is the official designated accommodation hotel for the European Cup. I was lucky enough to see the England and Belgium players.

Pros: Close to downtown, central train station and the cathedral can be reached by tram with one transfer. The spa area was good, with 7 saunas, 3 hot tubs, warm and cold pools and a steam room, so there wa splenty to choose from. One sauna is used for aufguss every hour. Cons: There is NO sound isolation whatsoever between the rooms. I could literally hear the sound of something plumping into water when someone was in the toilet in the next room. It sounded like the walls are made of thin cardboard. They also charged me 8 euros for a bathrobe and slippers, even after I explicitly said I would use my own slippers and they only handed me a towel as per my request. I think I made it abundantly clear that I didn't want to pay for a bathrobe when I suggested I would use my own slippers and a towel which was already in the room, but they still fooled me by handing me an extra towel and making me pay the full price. So it looks like they will take every opportunity to take those 8 euros from you. They should just say up front that spa entry costs 18 euros and not 10, because there is no way to avoid paying those 8 euros anyway.

This hotel is in a prime position for access to the city centre, Rhine River and major tourist attractions. It is a quaint hotel offering decent size rooms and a beautiful and changing buffet breakfast. The staff really make this hotel worth visiting, from the Reception staff to the incredibly friendly Breakfast staff. I would like to give a special mention to Corina for her attentiveness and friendliness. She makes you feel very welcomed. My only complaint would be that the cleaning staff were hit and miss and its something that the hotel should be monitoring. The last 2 days of our stay, the cleaner was very slack. I informed reception and this was fixed immediately but I shouldn't have had to say anything. I have cancer and staff were informed that my medication needed refrigeration and they provided me with an extra keycard to ensure the fridge stayed on whilst we were out but this particular cleaner kept removing it from the port. Overall I would definitely recommend this hotel but cleanliness should never be compromised.

Most difficult check-in I’ve ever experienced. I had called 1 day in advance to extend my reservation. The hotel hadn’t updated the booking, and wanted to charge 50% more and only agreed to honour the rate with much huffing, puffing and cursing in German. They then demanded payment in advance, and asked me if my driver’s license was real, as I’m obviously not German. They then informed me that there were no cleaning or guest services due to corona, despite having stayed all over Germany this month and getting basic services provided. They said everyone else was breaking the law. At this point, after 30 mins of arguing I decided to find a different hotel. Absolutely rubbish.

We just spent one night here with a group. The hotel is very welcoming and we had a nice room which even included a kettle with tea and coffee facilities. Wow! Even the bedside lighting was excellent. Wow! The pool was lovely, especially since we were in a heatwave and had been travelling all day. What a shame that our good impressions were spoilt by the experience in the restaurant. We understood that there was not much choice of restaurants locally and it was too hot to go into the city so we wanted to eat in the hotel. Their restaurant is quite small. I spoke to a waitress and asked to see a menu and she said I needed to download the QR code to see the menu. No, they didn't have a printout. I had to wait until I was back in my room, united with my iPhone, to read it. There was limited choice, but we decided to go down. The head waiter asked whether we had a reservation. We didn't, so we were told bluntly that the restaurant was full. No apologies, just a stubborn glare. So we started to go out, then noticed that several from our group were sitting at a table just outside the restaurant area. They had been told they could be served there. So we joined them and....were served! The Wiener Schnitzel and chips were ok, the salad drowned in dressing, the wine ok-ish and the price quite high. Pity, as the rest of the hotel was great and the people at reception very helpful.

The hotel has been renovated in recent years. The basic conditions are relatively good, the surrounding environment is good and open, and it is very convenient to drive and park. Opposite the hotel is Cologne's large shopping area, with many factory-style large supermarkets, shopping malls, and home furnishing stores. There is a subway station nearby, and it is more convenient to take the subway into the city.

After having some issues with my room in combination with the pool area not being open on the day of arrival (26th of December), board and manager managed to solve everything in a quick and wonderful way. With covid not being over and the pool area being used by a residence for elderly people, we needed to get a quick covid test before entering the pool. This was also managed quickly and if you would test positive(which wasn't the case luckily), there were no other consequences then not being able to swim. Very nice pool and hot tub despite the restrictions. Very good breakfast with very friendly staff, excellent location but above all, very kind and professional workers at the reception. Hope they can keep them in these difficult times.

The Hotel is located at the heart of the town which is a huge plus as everything is accessible and you do not even need to hire a car. The hotel staff are so friendly and helpful and try their best to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable for example the breakfast staff realized that we are eating vegetarian food they surprised us by kindly providing more options to give us plenty to choose from. The cleanliness of the hotel is impeccable. We will definitely return to our favorite hotel. Rania AL-Awadi
