Fine hotels next to the Rhine river

Customer review rating 5.0/5

Jan Families - 06/09/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Friendly welcoming staff and at the breakfast. Clean and well maintained room with fridge, coffee area and comfortable beds. The hotels is a stroll away from the nearby busy city center. We planned to stay two nights, but this was impossible due to some festivity parade. We noticed that at one point there was a long waiting line of guest checking in. Extensive breakfast with fresh bread and a nice variety of produce. Will stay again.

Dear Jan H., 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

It was a very good experience. The hotel is family friendly. Public transport is readily available a few meters from the hotel but most things are walking distance. It is also lovely to walk along the river. The hotel is walking distance to the Lindt Chocolate Museum, the Dom, the Ludwig Museum and the shopping district.

Well located, but poor parking offers

Customer review rating 3.0/5

Kamran P. Families - 23/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Overall the hotel was okay but the parking space was not satisfactory as most of the time we spend more that half an hour to park our car and even on Friday night after one hour searching we had to park outside and walked to hotel for more that 20 minutes with children which made us unsatisfied.

Great Hotel

Customer review rating 4.5/5

Werner Families - 08/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The hotel overall was good, it was well situated near upscale businesses and restaurants. Really convenient if you are going to the Chocolate Museum. The room was within our expectations, the air conditioning was weak at best, even on high. The view from our room was to an apartment building and when we opened the shades we could see the residents, we did not open the shades again. We did not try the restaurant/bar nor did we have the breakfast. Check-out was fast and efficient.

Room was a bit older and not perfectly cleaned, but very well equipped. Large room with ample space for two adults and two children (aged 13 and 11). Very good breakfast. Very good location. Parking (basement garage) pretty expensive - we would have wished possibility for charging.

Looking for the best location to see all of Cologne, the Novotel Koeln worked perfect with the plans for my late afternoon arrival, sightseeing efforts, and easy access to the rail station. Lots of shops, dining options nearby within walking distance for my brief city stopover. Clean and spacious rooms with friendly staff made it a great stay.

Unspectacular

TripAdvisor rating 3.0/5

expat014 02/09/2020 TripAdvisor review

Although you don't expect anything but the usual standard in these kind of hotels i did find it the hotel to be on the low side of the scale. The whole design is very boring and nothing exceeds a 3 star hotel. The tray with the cups was dusty, windows very dirty. So I cannot believe there are any special cleaning measures taken at the moment. Fridge did not work very well. The shower the beds were nice.

Dear expat014, Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Novotel Koeln City. I am sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations; please allow me to express my sincerest apologies. Hope to welcome you again soon. Warm regards, Ruediger Schild General Manager

The hotel is near the river and has a nice walk distance to the city center. Also they have a very good policy against Covid-19 with "Hand hygiene stations" across the entire hotel. They also have a very nice garden area for breakfast and the staff were very nice.

Dear RicardV1285, We very much appreciate your positive feedback about your stay at the Novotel Koeln City. Many thanks at this point for your feedback to our extensive ALLSAFE hygiene measures Hope to see you soon. Warm regards, Ruediger Schild General Manager

Cosmopolitan277780 Solo travel - 06/12/2019 TripAdvisor review

The hotel staff were very welcoming and helpful making my stay very enjoyable. The room was very comfortable, spacious and had a good shower. The breakfast was excellent and I appreciated the gym and the sauna area which has a good view of the river and the part of the city. A few minor problems were quickly sorted out by the Hotel Manager and his team, a sign of a well run property. This was my second visit and I will definitely be back.

Dear Cosmopolitan277780 , We very much appreciate your very positive 5* feedback about your stay at the Novotel Koeln City. Hope to see you soon - I wish you a merry christmas time. Warm regards, Ruediger Schild General Manager
