Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The rooms were spacious, exceptionally clean, and had everything we needed, making it extremely good value for money. The service was top-notch, and the location was recommended for its beautiful and quiet setting. The dining experience was also very nice, and the facilities were great.
I had a delightful stay at the hotel, with spacious and beautifully lit rooms that offered views of the entrance's courtyard and neighboring houses. The high ceilings and chandeliers added to the luxurious feel, creating a quiet and comfortable environment. The service was impressive, with accommodating staff always ready to assist. The location was great, offering a beautiful setting near Cologne Cathedral. However, dining options were a bit overpriced for the quality. The facilities were well-maintained overall, providing a pleasant experience.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with high ceilings and views of the courtyard and nearby houses. The service is friendly but could be more attentive in certain areas. It's located in a beautiful setting, recommended for a quiet stay, with some minor maintenance issues. The dining choices are varied, but there are some limitations. Overall, a lovely hotel with gorgeous surroundings.
