Best Hotels in Cologne
Explore Cologne with 281 hotels near iconic landmarks, popular shopping streets, and top dining spots.
Maritim Hotel Köln ★★★★
"The hotel has a good location, convenient transportation and comfortable rooms."
Hansadom Hotel Köln ★★★
"I booked a double room, which clearly stated one double bed and one single bed. When I got to the room there were two single beds. I went to reception and told them I want the room I booked. The receptionist then said to me "you are single though". Unbelievable really that they think they can fo that and I wonder how many people don't challenge them. I got my room in the end. I checked the safe and that would not work so it had to be replaced. Then the fridge did not work so that also had to be replaced."
a&o Köln Hauptbahnhof ★★
"Convenient location with only 5 minutes walk to the train station and the cathedral, the price is fair. The sound of trains is unavoidable if you are someone who is sensitive to the sound this might not be the best choice for your stay."
Steigenberger Hotel Köln ★★★★
"The room is spacious, and the water pressure is excellent. The elevators are fast, and the location is convenient for transportation and shopping. The breakfast spread is fantastic."
Dorint Hotel am Heumarkt Köln ★★★★
"Good property and good location"
Dorint An der Messe Köln ★★★★
"Conveniently located in front of the Koln Messe. Very quiet and comfortable. Very friendly and competent staff."
Premier Inn Koln City Sud ★★★
"I feel it's ok"
Hotel Arena ★★
"Having traveled to visit an exhibition, we chose the nearby Arena Hotel. Anyone expecting "ambience," a "lounge," and all that jazz will be disappointed. We stayed in a room without carpeting, containing two single beds, a table with two chairs, and a shelving unit with a clothes rail. Perfectly adequate for one night. The bathroom was small but perfectly sufficient. Parking was available in the hotel courtyard. Thanks to a lift, it was also wheelchair accessible. We can't comment on breakfast as we didn't have it. The service was friendly. In conclusion: Perfectly fine for one or two nights—for a longer stay, we would choose a different hotel."
B&B HOTEL Köln-Messe
"The room is quite small and crowded."

Mercure Hotel Koeln West
"The room is newly decorated, warm, and the bedding suits me. It's just that the hot water in the bathroom is not easy to adjust. The breakfast is rich, with only raw tomatoes and cucumbers as vegetables, and no sauce like Thousand Island dressing, mayonnaise or the like. Although it is considered a suburb of Cologne, there are two large supermarkets across the road on the left when you go out of the gate, a shoe store, a cheap clothing store, and a DM cheap drug store. There is McDonald's and KFC just a few minutes' walk behind the hotel, and Decathlon across the road. Because the public transportation situation is not clear when driving."
Moxy Cologne Bonn Airport
"Staff were very friendly & helpful. Location is good enough for us to take a morning flight. Complementary drinks were a bonus."
Holiday Inn - the niu, Mill Cologne Mülheim
"Normal"
Holiday Inn Express COLOGNE - MUELHEIM by IHG
"Good service, clean, the hotel is also new, a little small, but very comfortable if you don't have much luggage. Remember to bring your own slippers and toiletries. The breakfast is also good, the surrounding area is also quite fun, highly recommended"
Mercure Hotel Koeln Belfortstrasse
"Our stay at the Mercure Hotel exceeded all our expectations. Really good location, close to many amenities. The room was very clean and the bed was super comfortable. Very friendly staff and a great choice of breakfast options. Would definitely visit again and recommend this hotel to anyone 🙂💫"
Lindner Hotel Cologne am Dom
"Great place to stay"
Mauritius Hotel & Therme
"I stayed at the hotel with three friends in January 2026. It was my first overnight stay, although I had previously visited the sauna. Upon arrival, the hotel manager (an older gentleman with dyed hair) stared at us in an unfriendly manner as we entered the foyer to check in. His demeanor was cold and unwelcoming, his tone irritated, and his facial expression dismissive. Instead of feeling like valued guests, we felt like an inconvenience. A first interaction should set a positive tone for the stay — unfortunately, this one did the opposite. The exchange was uncomfortable and disappointing. The rooms were modern, clean, and acceptable overall. The sauna area, however, was disappointing. While parts were under reconstruction, the space lacked the warm and inviting atmosphere it once had in previous years. The restaurant service was average, and the food quality was also average — nothing particularly memorable. Overall, the experience was negative enough that none of us plan to return. The four of us agreed on this the following morning. It is unfortunate that the stay did not meet expectations in any way."
Hyatt Regency Cologne
"I've stayed here multiple times. It's very close to the convention center."
Mercure Hotel Severinshof Koeln City
"It did the job. The bathroom stunk of drains. Apart from that it was pretty average. Great location next to a train station. Staff were pleasant."
Best Western Plus Hotel Koeln City
"I was passing through Cologne and it was on the way and the location is perfect!"
Lindner Hotel Cologne City Plaza
"The room was very clean and sanitary. It was cleaned the next day. I was very satisfied!"
Wasserturm Hotel Cologne, Curio Collection by Hilton
"Amazing stat and it’s has nice city view on the top .. the garden amazing"
LOGINN Hotel Köln Airport
"Nice and comfortable stay. The staff were very friendly at check-in and everything went smoothly."
Pullman Cologne
"Hotel very nice event compare with pullman in Thailand the room a bit small but it not a problem. The staff very nice and friendly. Good location not far from the train station. A few minutes walk to the shopping street"
Garner Hotel Cologne Porz - Airport by IHG
"The hotel has comfortable rooms, and the reception staff are very friendly. Right outside the hotel, I can enjoy a beautiful sunset by the riverside. The location is convenient for transportation. Highlights to recommend."
Urban Loft Cologne
"The location is almost perfect for getting to the station and most activities. Only weird part was the shower had no real basin so water just ran across the bathroom floor and not towards any drainage. The view wasn’t half bad. Staf were very friendly and helpful."
