Top Rautenstrauch-Joest-Museum Hotel Reviews

CityClass Hotel am Dom

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent single room, did not feel too small. Balcony had stunning views over the cathedral! Excellent location right behind the cathedral, a few minutes walk to the main train station (only 20-ish minutes direct from airport), and breakfast had both a continental and a cooked option. Brilliant for a weekend city break. Staff had a good sense of humour!"

Novotel Köln City

10/10 Excellent

"."

Opera Hotel Köln

10/10 Excellent

"For the cheap price it had everything I needed. The bed wasn’t top quality and it was a bit chilly in the room but for the 8 hours I was there it worked. The pillow was mediocre but propped it up with some clothes and was fine. The shower was hot and had fabulous water pressure. Love the big shelf in the bathroom to hold things."

CityClass Hotel Alter Markt

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was quaint, and the staff was very friendly, welcoming, and informative. Our room was clean and well-stocked with everything we needed. We stayed on the top floor, and the breathtaking view of the cathedral made our stay even more special. We had a wonderful experience and would happily recommend this hotel!"
