Pros : Room is fancy. Location is close to city centreCons: Rudest/unkind staff service in the entire world. Parking is super expensive.They should mention it on booking.com and everywhere but they leave the looking for "parking fees" as guests responsibility and looks at you like alien when asking for help finding parking spots that are free.Who would wanna come to a hotel and pay 40-60euro per day parking? This hotel is nothing more than average 2-3star hotel in Eastern Europe. But staffs (especially long black curly haired lady) was behaving like "this is super luxury hotel & how dare you ask for help finding parking". Shouldn't it be basic expectation or consideration from hotel knowing that all their guests are coming for staying at their hotel and more way to get more customers are by being kind and helping them find what they need instead of having grumpy face and "cant be bothered to help you behavior".In Italy, any hotel in any region i stayed never had such experiences. In Itally all hotel owners were kind enough to let guests know where we could freely park or spend as minimum as possible. Only in Cologn, the staff here won't give a shit how much you have to lose out of your pocket for stupid parking.. speechless worst experience ever. never again will I have interest in coming to Cologne

I contacted the hotel the day before the visit about an upgrade (member), I was promised the upgrade but upon arrival they took it back.How unprofessional is that?As a member you get late checkout upon request, I asked if this was possible, I was told I should ask again on the day of departure, but I actually wanted to sleep late.Very bad serviceThank you very much for nothing, not one of the members' promises was fulfilled.

An incredible hotel. Parking available above ground and in a parking garage. Very safe and secure area. Walking distance to the sckholade museum (5mins) and the centre (15mins). The staff were incredible, so helpful to my partner who's in wheelchair. Lift available at a different entrance as the main entrance has steps. The rooms were great, amenities were great and the view was awesome. Also loved the aesthetic of the hotel. Overall very happy and would go back again if ever in Cologne.
