Stayed here over New Year. The hotel is towards the edge of Cologne, very close to the chocolate museum, but walkable into the centre. Thought we had booked breakfast, but obviously hadn't; was given the option to purchase but at 25euros pp we decided against it! They do have a self service area with snacks and drinks which is convenient (although we used the garage shop next door instead as cheaper). The room was as expected with a mini fridge and tea/coffee facilities. The bed was very comfy and the curtains kept the light out well. We were checking out on NY Day and so check out was delayed until 1pm which was a nice touch.

First time in Köln

The hotel was amazing from the start felt so welcome and comfortable when speaking to the staff, the hotel room was beautiful spacious and so clean, the hotel explain if you put on the door you do not want your room clean the hotel give you a coupon for a free drink at the bar which I think is lovely. They have a mini shop in the hotel from chargers to plugs to sweets chocolates and drinks, the have room service and they are very quick & efficient.

Really decent hotel, had absolutely no issues here and it's right next to the chocolate museum. Little walk to the cathedral/main restaurant area. If you have the window open you can hear road traffic, but very soundproofed with the windows closed and generally comfortable.

had a disappointing experience at NH Köln. The toilet was broken, and the bathroom door didn’t close properly, which was very inconvenient. The room was poorly equipped – no toothbrush, no robe for the toilet, and other basic amenities were missing. Additionally, the room card didn’t work well and kept causing issues. Overall, not the standard I expected from this hotel. Definitely not worth the price.
