Köln hotellit lähellä Galerie Der Spiegel

Plussat: I didn't try out the breakfast, but the dinner was pretty good (excluding the cocktail, which I'll get to in a minute). The steak was tender and juicy, definitely worth what I'd paid for, and the baked potato was really delicious. Great comfort food. Overall, a thumbs up to the "food" in general The room (Beds) were comfortable. I wish there were a thicker blanket, but I did come from a tropical-subtropical area, so it is highly likely that the Europeans find the temperature fine. I mean, it was not cold, but I'd like it warm. And because it was generally acceptable, I did not ask the staff for a thicker blanket, and it is likely that they might be able to supply them. So, overall, a good hotel with helpful staff and a generally good position. Breakfast and metro nearby with a few minutes walk. I didn't explore the area too much to be giving a good opinion on this.

Miinukset: The overall design of the shower was TERRIBLE. (I lived in a room for two, if you were wondering) It was not the hotel's fault, and to be honest, it didn't affect me a lot. But they had this useless piece of glass panel with a hinge connecting a fixed and functional glass panel that was supposed to keep the water out. And between the two panels, were this slit that water kept pouring out onto the floor. I was not TOO annoyed since it wasn't me that had to clean the floor, but I had to watch my steps to avoid soggy slippers. Okay to acceptable in a hotel, but I'd ask for a full refund from the designer if it were my place. Tried everything to stop the floor from getting wet but in vain. The cocktail. I was not much of a drinker, so I will not be going with the tastes. I first found two fruit fly like creature in the cocktail a few moments after I ordered it. I was not sure if they decided to join the party after I started eating, maybe jumped into the pool when I was digging into my steak. I asked the bartender to kindly pick them from the cocktail, which he kindly did, and I continued drinking. I was not able to finish the drink and asked to take them back to my room (No additional fruit flies seen above the ice cubes at this time), but after I emptied the drinks, I noticed three additional fruit flies (which I was sure that there isn't any in my room) lay in the bottom of the glass. I did not immediately count five fruit flies when the drink was served, so there might be this chance that the flies drowned themselves while I was not aware of it, but I think it is more likely that they were buried under the ice when the drinks were made. Kind of surprised, but just surprised.

Miinukset: Car parking costs extra money.

Plussat: The good position, excellent facilities, big space and good view, comfortable pillows and bedding, friendly and very helpful staff can give many useful recommendations. Always Beautiful and clean environment in the hotel. Strong recommended. Good for family and children.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Top Business-Hotel!

Plussat: The hotel had a lot of amenities and was very clean. The breakfast was excellent and they had wide range of choices, The location of the Hotel is well placed and was convenient for us to visit most of the tourist attractions without any hassles. We would love to stay in this Hotel next time we are in Cologne.

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: Location, size of the room, very comfy and huge bed , great bathroom, very quiet

Miinukset: The breakfast, would not book it again, it was included in the rate but didn’t even bother on day 2. Too small for the amount of guests, not breakfast was cold, 1 coffeemaker for so many guests which broke just before I wanted to use it after a substantial wait. Cdnt be fixed quickly so a waitor brought a coffee to my table. Quite bitter so didn’t have a second. Croissants had Discounter quality. Cheese and cold meats tasted cheap. Fresh fruits were ok and overall variety was good.

Plussat: The room was nicely decorated, clean and the beds very comfortable. The breakfast was absolutely lovely and the onsite cocktail bar has lovely views of the Dom.

Miinukset: We had specifically booked a twin room but on arrival (very late at night) they said they had none available. They did ultimately go up and split the beds but it was annoying that they hadn’t sorted it out in advance given that our booking was specifically for a twin room.

Plussat: Flawless hotel. Great rooms, extra comfy beds, super clean, all the amenities you could think of. Superb breakfast and great location.

Miinukset: Can't think of any flaws. Maybe the price of parking.

Plussat: Great location

Miinukset: No swimming pool

Plussat: Great location which is only just a few minutes from the main station. The hotel is nice and clean.

Miinukset: Breakfast too noisy with little kids. The surrounding environment of the hotel is a bit rough.

Plussat: That bartenders were fantastic and the liquor selection (especially the scotch & bourbon) was the best I've ever seen.

Miinukset: The main restaurant wasn't open a single night the whole week I was staying at the hotel, only the lounge.

Plussat: Location close to the main station

Miinukset: The hotel had no umbrellas available and when you have paid 800 euro per night you would expect an umbrella. apparently the hotel had tripled the room rate due to the exhibition that was on. Also the air conditioning didn't work so the room was very hot.

Plussat: One of the best Marriott hotels I have stayed in Germany. Staff are professional, check-in and out are fast. Nice gym and meeting rooms. It's within walking distance to the train station. Hotel also not far from Kôln Cathedral and Kôln Bridge. Very happy with the stay.

Plussat: Good location, big room, very clean

Plussat: Perfect staff! Friendly and funny. Room is also really big, very comfortable stay.

Plussat: The staff we lovely and the concierge went out of his way to help. Plenty of choice on the breakfast buffett and of a good quality.

Miinukset: Our room was not cleaned on the first day, i reported this and requested some coffee sachets, came back later still not cleaned, reported this again and they thought up coffee and clean towels. Rest of week ok.

Plussat: Member of concierge desk was extremely helpful and walked me to a shop in the train station to find a product I needed.

Miinukset: Omelette bar not always attended / long queues and sometimes hard to find a seat for breakfast.

Miinukset: For a non-smoking hotel, why are smokers right outside the lobby door. I had to always walk through cigarette smoke just to enter and exit the hotel.

Plussat: Central and safe

Miinukset: The water was not warm enough

Plussat: Amazing breakfast, however for an extra charge. Convenient parking, but for that you also have to pay extra. Room service has no extra charge. Trainee receptionist was very nice and helpful, actually all the staff members were very kind and forthcoming.

Miinukset: No coffee supplies in room, only two tea bags, really weird for this kind of hotel. Queue at check in and check out. No slippers and bathrobe. Mattress was too soft for us. Babycot was requested, but it was not in the room, so the receptionist brought it herself, since all the cleaning ladies had went home. Found that weird as well, even lower level hotels have 24h cleaning staff.

Plussat: Love it

Miinukset: perfect

Plussat: Helpful and friendly staff

Miinukset: It was far expensive than it should be. We had another booking near Cologne for exhibition, it did not go well so we made a last minute book.

Plussat: I did not have breakfast as we had an early flight out of Cologne the following morning. The hotel setup was very nice and the breakfast area looked very classy and well presented. Hotel room was very spacious we had a Rine River view room. The room had a smart TV that you could browse the net and watch anything of your choice. Very modern finish hotel rooms and reception area. Location is on the Rine river along a main road easy to find if driving to and from airport. This hotel suited more business travelers than if you want to walk and explore the town. But highly recommend this hotel.

Miinukset: Everything was really good nothing I could Fault this Hotel for. under ground parking is limited but there is parking available right next to the hotel as well.

Plussat: Upea design, upea sijainti reinin varrella. Rutkasti rahalle vastinetta.

Miinukset: 283 euron panttimaksu. Joka palautetaan vasta muutaman päivän päästä uloskirjautumisesta.

Plussat: The hotel has a modern design. As it is located by the Rhein, we enjoyed the view from the window. Also, we could watch YouTube on the TV, it was a kind of entertainment in the room. We got up-to-date information of local events in the lift. We joined one of the events which gave us a taste of the local atmosphere.

Miinukset: I wish there is a kettle in the room.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Over priced due to the local exhibition but not worth anywhere near the €500+ per night which didn’t even include breakfast. Wash basin in the bedroom is strange too. Booked room with river view and got a room with busy road and fuel station view. Would not stay here again.

Plussat: The reception team is very friendly and assisted professionally with any request. The breakfast offering is excellent and well presented. The evening bar staff are excellent, they are efficient and friendly and do make an effort to be service orientated and to make ones evening a pleasurable experience. The standard of cleanliness in the rooms is generally very good.

Miinukset: Most of the breakfast team are helpful but lack personality and make no effort to create a warm guest experience. I would have liked to have seen different breakfast pricing options e.g. a full breakfast | continental breakfast | mini breakfast. The Housekeeping staff are unable to communicate in English. I made several attempts to meet the General Manager and got zero response. I also never met any member of the management team something which in todays world of customer experiences is a must.

Plussat: The modern design of the building and close location to the main centre

Miinukset: The fact that someone was able to walk into my room when I was sleeping, and the receptionist would not accept that a key card was used to gain entry. She insisted that we left our door open, that did not happen.

Plussat: Room was very clean and attractive. Beds very comfortable.

Miinukset: Extremely expensive.

Plussat: Outstanding room Clean and modern Within walking distance to everything in Cologne

Miinukset: Nil

Plussat: Loistava aamupala. Siisti ja loistava hinta laastusuhde!

Miinukset: Huono tuuri että jouduttiin vaihtaa huonetta kun parvekkeen ovi hajosi.. Vaihto sujui loistavasti!

Plussat: Friendly staff, great breakfast, nice roof terrace

Plussat: Very clean room when we arrived and comfortable beds. Staff were incredibly helpful. Liked the view of the Colonius Tower and park. Would definitely stay again.

Miinukset: Even though we were on a high floor, we were a bit disappointed that we couldn’t open the window a little in the hot weather. Air-con was good, but it would’ve been better if we had a bit of fresh air. The only English channels available were news channels. We would’ve liked the option to change the language on some movie channels as they were all in German.

Plussat: I recommend the hotel for an amazing breakfast, good spa area for relaxation, nice room with a view to the park, polite and helpful stuff, good location in a modern area

Plussat: A bit of a walk from the train station but not too bad. Lots of restaurants nearby (though they mostly weren't open late at night). Near metro stops to get to the center city and all the tourist attractions. Comfortable chain hotel with such amenities as air conditioning and an elevator; often taken for granted but some of the other accommodations I used on this European trip didn't have them.

Plussat: The Lazy Sunday check out service is an excellent idea! Breakfast in the room service was provided even after 12 - very flexible and clients' oriented service!!

Plussat: The staff were friendly and very welcoming and if you are an Arabic speaker, you should look for Eisaam from the front office team. He was very helpful. The room was nice and comfortable. And the location was great. If I had the chance, I would definitely come back.

Plussat: Punctuality of the staff speaking good english very clearly,great elegant location and calmness of the room.

Miinukset: Reception changed our room as the A/c was not working. The new room had a nice city view instead of the back side one we had first. The a/c was working but Nespresso machine was not and the water kettle was draining water from every side.It is a small detail but however it shadows the other positives of the hotel.

Plussat: We would have liked some ordinary breakfast tea and milk in the bedroom.we would have preferred coffee pots on the table instead of machine coffee.

Miinukset: See above

Plussat: location and updated decor

Miinukset: no!

Miinukset: Aamupala oli todella kallis , kahdelta henkilöltä olis ollut melkein 50 euroa ! Ei menty tästä syystä .

Plussat: Staff were excellent, very helpful Breakfast was very good

Miinukset: Directions to get there need a little work - we drove around for 20 minutes to find it

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: We checked in in the afternoon and AC, fridge, and safe did not work. We left to get dinner and was promised it would be fixed. Returned in evening and nothing fixed. We lost baby breast milk and no AC. Night manager refused to fix/give us new room.

Plussat: In the website there was parking advertised but no mention of the 20 euros per night. I was not happy with that as the parking was one of the main reason that we picked this hotel.

Miinukset: They could have made it clear that parking is charged at 20 euros per night.
