Hotels near Erft Karee Kerpen, Kerpen

400e for 2 nights for 2 rooms is a crazy amount of money for an ibis Budget. Just paid 100e less for a Lovely house in Bruges! However, hotel prices in Koln were incredibly high family of 5 we had little choice . Did the job but certainly not worth that amount of money. It was clean, comfy beds and powerful showers as a positive. Let's be honest thank goodness it was at that price. Good location outside of the LEZ zone and a quick hop onto the tram 8 mins walk away.

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.

Very pleasant hotel for a one-night stopover. Spacious free parking. Friendly staff, both at reception and in restaurant. Nice room design, single room was spacious enough and bed fairly comfortable. I loved the restaurant: great food (in particular dinner, but free breakfast was quite nice as well) and they have nice outdoor seating (backside, away from the main street). Only downside was that they had major issues with air-conditioning and the whole system was not working (hopefully solved soon as I was told a technician would come next day). In the first room I got, the aircon kept making an annoying noise (even turned off). Fortunately, reception gave me another room (still no aircon but at least no noise). The last room on the 3rd floor had huge windows which could be opened like doors, so the room cooled down sufficiently during night anyway.

At first glance, the Leonardo Royal Hotel am Stadtpark in Cologne appears very ”blocky”. Located a little way back from a main road, it looks like an office complex. But when you get to the hotel, the picture changes. You are greeted in an attractive lobby and meet the very friendly and courteous staff at the reception. The service here was really first class, we were able to check in just before 12 noon because the room was ready. Our room was at the back with a magnificent view of a lake in Cologne's Stadtpark. The room itself was very neat and clean and excellently equipped (fridge, TV, coffee machine, tablet & WiFi and also with a make-up mirror and hairdryer in the spacious bathroom). Also worth mentioning is the very comfortable king-size bed with a great mattress (I haven't slept so well in a long time). The breakfast buffet also leaves nothing to be desired, is very extensive, international and offers everything that should be ”state of the art”. The hotel is very quiet due to its location directly in Cologne's city park. There is a tram stop within walking distance for trips into Cologne city centre, making it ideal for a city trip to the cathedral city.

Location good, everything clean, rooms maintained and attractively furnished. It would be nice if you don't have to try to fail to connect your iPhone to the TV for 2 hours. Breakfast is rich and pleasant long, please don't come here every 2 minutes to clean, that's a little nervous. The reception is unfortunately over-required with the smallest problem (unfortunately, it would also be appropriate to believe the guest again and again when he reports where he booked something. He usually knows it better than any funny “system”). Otherwise, and yet a successful stay with improvement potential.

Die Lage ist gut, zu Fuß ca. 15 Minuten zum Dom, in einer einigermaßen ruhigen Seitenstraße. Zimmer sind sauber und gut ausgestattet aber klein. Hier sind wohl einige Häuser zusammengefügt worden, es wird deswegen wohl Unterschiede in der Größe der Zimmer geben. Schöne und große Auswahl zum Frühstück, welches auf der Website für einen unschlagbaren Preis inkludiert war. Tiefgarage gegen Gebühr vorhanden, zu breit sollte das Auto dafür nicht sein. Check In und Out hat wunderbar funktioniert.

The hotel is nicely decorated and quite quirky, the best thing was the glass wall in the bathroom which you can make opaque at the flick of a switch. The air conditioning control was broken and the room was freezing. On chat with one if the staff who couldn’t do anything about it, my bedside light was also not working. There was a lot of wear and tear in the room, worn floors, lots of limescale on the shower heads, the overhead one was unusable it was so blocked up. We were offered bunk beds in a dorm as a room change which was totally unacceptable. Had we have been in Cologne for more than one night we would have definitely checked out. Going paperless and peopleless is ok on paper but if something is broken you need to be able to provide someone to give maintenance when there is a problem, you can’t just offer bunk beds and fob someone off with a bit of a refund. The refund we received was about £7.50

Well, the apartment is good, a bit bigger than a normal hotel room, but by no means ample. There are some irritating failures of design: Most pulling knobs are difficult to pull, being a smooth cylinder or similar. Only the fridge door has a proper pulling shape, so they were aware of the usefulness of the design, but chose not to do it on the rest. Also, the microwave has a grill, but also a notice on the door that says never to use the grill because it will start the fire alarm ??? Easier to buy non-grill microwaves, I'd say. They have something about fire alarms, because they make you sign a document where you declare to know about them and specify the fines for setting one accidentally. It discourages you from cooking at all :-) Also the bed can be raised and you get a sofa . The bed surface is one plank, it's comfortable, but the two ”arms” of the sofa are long and hard, easy to hit in the night if you rise from the bed. But these are generally minor inconveniences. The apartment looks clean in general, but there was a big exception. We noticed during the first night a strong old-sweat smell when in the bed. Investigation proved it to come from the mattress protector, which was also a bit brown when we took the sheet out. Clearly it hadn't been washed. I don't know what is the general policy in hotels about mattress protectors, but this one was obviously dirty, and they didn't wash it. We didn't take the issue to the management, we were tired, we just took the mattress protector away and slept without problems afterwards. So we don't know which would have been the reaction to this. but that shouldn't happen anyway.

I have stayed in mercure hotels in over 5 countries and many cities. They are the best. Beds were comfortable and huge rooms. Great service. Location was great with many great local restaurants nearby. Just next to the metro. Super stay! Danke Schone!
