Top Friesenplatz Hotel Reviews

URBAN LOFT Cologne

10/10 Excellent

"Double Double-pane windows facing the train tracks kept the noise to a whisper day and night. They gave me a wheelchair accessible room that had the biggest shower I've ever seen in the EU. Breakfast is extra, and continental style, but they had something hot every day and the lobby 'co-working' space was very nice. Only complaint would be the stained and worn carpets on the first floor hallways."

Mauritius Hotel & Therme

8/10 Good

"Pretty good."

Premier Inn Köln City Süd

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable and convenient hotel for a short visit to Koln for a couple of days with my son. Great choice of food in the hotel breakfast buffet, although there were also good local cafe options a short walk from the hotel too. Easy to walk into the city centre (15-25 mins walk) to the major tourist areas/sights. Hotel has a decent amount of on-site parking, although it costs €23 Euros per day, and the entrance to it does involve you having to go around the back of the hotel and down a one-way side road to get to it. We took a wrong turn initially, so had to do another loop to access it. We stayed on the top (17th floor) and there was a great view of the river & skyline from the room. Would definitely stay here again if visiting the area."

Premier Inn Köln City Mediapark

8/10 Good

"Our room was huge, with enough room for the bed for my husband and I, plus twin beds for our two kids. It even had a little seating area and an electric kettle which was great for cup of noodles sorts of meals. The only issue was during check-in when the staff notified us that we had two rooms booked when we knew we'd only booked one. They insisted it was Expedia's mistake and must be fixed on Expedia's end, because as a policy they do not cancel 3rd party reservations. We called Expedia and they said they only saw the one room and therefore could not cancel a second, insisting it was an error on the hotel's end. It ended up being a very frustrating experience for everyone involved but in the end they found a way for the extra room to be canceled by a manager higher up. I really appreciated the woman at the front desk for working really hard to find a solution for us. The male front desk worker had a less professional demeanor and bordered on rude. After that situation was sorted out, we were very happy with the hotel. The breakfast buffet was delicious and had tons of appetizing choices. The second elevator started working during our stay which helped with wait times. The location was excellent with a train stop just down the street, a grocery store a couple blocks away, and a laundromat across the street."

CityClass Hotel am Dom

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was perfectly located and walkable. The rooms transferred noise so be mindful if you are looking for quiet. The breakfast was delicious with lots of options and the staff were very kind and always ready to help."

Novotel Köln City

8/10 Good

"Great place for a family of 5 to stay."

Excelsior Hotel Ernst am Dom

10/10 Excellent

"Dan the concierge was extremely helpful"

Limehome Köln Friesenplatz

8/10 Good

"No onsite staff meaning all interactions are via phone. Simple but fairly well equipped room. Booked two rooms but ended up on different floors. No twin bed option. Some noise and disturbance late at night but otherwise a good stay."

Innception Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great for a solo traveller, the reception staff were great, they hold your luggage which I found to be very useful, overall you get a decent space with a private bathroom but when in a city break, other than sleep, do you spend much time in a room? If you do the room has a tv… It does lack A/C but a fan is provided which aided a decent sleep"
