Booked this hotel at the last minute with a pretty good rate on-line (65 Euros), We were really happy with the choice The room was ultra modern, new, clean and the beds comfortable. Thick towels and all the necessary amenities. High speed was supposed to be wired, but my trusty Mac picked up a wireless signal from my room, so... more

Got to this hotel 2 hours or so before check in to drop off bags, but the room was ready - and what can I say the bathroom was very modern, with a nice flash flat screen telly offering CNN, BBC World etc and lots of other tv channels in other languages. The beds were comfortable, only dissapointment about the... more

Stayed at this hotel for 4 nights, including the night of the Kolner Lichter (Cologne Lights festival). I was surprised that the hotel room was of a good size (in the website, it sounded as though the "standard room" was very small). There was more than enough space, and everything was clean, tidy, modern and new. There was even a... more

I was invited to an event south of Koeln Center and the Lyskirchen was suggested. I found it to be a good value in a good location, a short walk to the Old City and Dom. The staff was efficient and friendly. The breakfast (expensive) was full of choices and well presented. And, the rooms were clean, modern and comfortable.... more

This hotel is very nice and modern. It was only about 50 meters from the river and this was perfect for taking our dog out for walks. If you want to be within walking distance of everything and not spend a fortune then this is the place to stay. They also have a parking garage underground so for those who... more

The rooms are comfortable but a tad small and some of the design 'featues' of the rooms are a bit strange to say the least (no seperate section for the shower, a toilet whose door doesnt keep... more

Hotel is well located - pleasant 10 min walk along the Rhein to the town. Great first impressions in the hotel reception. Staff efficient and friendly. Room was nice, a good size, nicely decorated, warm, overlooking the pool and quiet as we'd asked for, great bathroom and walk-in shower, plenty of storage/hooks, platter of complimentary fruit, plasma TV, duvets on... more

As we wanted to walk to most spots in the city centre, this hotel was in an ideal location, down a side street across a main road from the river. Room was to side of hotel, not a great view but not an issue for us. Very stylish reception area, with very helpful English speaking staff. Room a little odd,... more

We usually in 3* hotels in Köln, paying about 75 Euros. This time we treated ourselves and upgraded to a 4* for around 100 Euros. So, I admit our expectations were a bit higher than normal. Check-in was easy and the staff were friendly. The bar area looked nice. The pool and sauna were really nice too. The room was... more
