Top hotels in Altstadt-Nord
Maritim Hotel Köln
Staff at reception was very attentive, specifically the lady from Nepal (sorry, I’m really bad with names) I wish there were things in the room that guests probably need like an iron or a steamer for clothing, shower head cap etc. I like the hotel and the location.
