We had checked in online in advance, but we were not given all the paperwork (for example, the login details for Premium Internet). Also the information about where the breakfast room was was missing. Not that that's a bad thing, but noteworthy. By the way, I didn't notice any difference between "normal" and "Premium" WiFi. Another thing that was crazy is that you have to bring your smartphone to the restaurant to access the menu there via a QR code. Hopefully this has come to counter infections related to COVID-19, because we didn't find it very user friendly. Then print the menu on an A4 sheet and throw that away. But fortunately the waiter was able to list the menu. What was good (and it was also mentioned on the site) was that you can choose 3 items from the display case. By the way, we had an executive room. Maybe a king bed is better than a queen. But we had quite a good time and enjoyed discovering Cologne.
Dear Ron N., Thank you for the great review of our hotel! We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again very soon. Sincerely, Rüdiger Schild General Manager

Unfriendly staff - they’re anything but welcoming., High room rates without breakfast. Rooms are clean and decent. There’s nothing provided in the room - like room slippers, or water or anything.

Natalia Families - Confirmed reviews ALL
I traveled with family: children and a senior, and the hotel is at walking distance from the city center. We also used the parking ️ service, 19€ per 24 hours, very good garage. At the lobby there is a dedicated area for children to play and nice sofas for the grown ups to wait. The breakfast is very complete. It was also included in our rate. The dining area has nice views to the river. On the rooftop there is a gym and a sauna with a small terrace and some views to the city ️. Overall it was one of our favorite stays in Germany during this trip, not only thanks to the charming city of Köln, also thanks to the stay at the Novotel

Joshua W. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL
The hotel is well located - relatively close to the center but still relatively silent surround and close to the river. Everything is clean. The personal is okay (could be a bit more anticipating and proactive), the breakfast buffet is good though the tablets (all of the wet) provide you with an unpleasant canteen-feeling.
Dear Joshua W., Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While I wish you had a better experience, it is feedback like this that we learn from and use to improve. We work hard to deliver an exceptional guest experience, and it's apparent in this case that we fell short. If you give us a chance to earn back your trust, I can assure you that we will do our best to give you the great hotel experience that so many of our guests have grown so fond of. Sincerely, Rüdiger Schild General Manager
