Municipality of Roerdalen Vacations & Trips from $1,330

Ok, my opinion is swayed as this was my first time back in my home town for 30 years. But despite that biased opinion, reception was quick, fuss free and professional. Room was clean, very functional I'd say. (Polite way of saying not a lot there) But clean and comfortable. I guess we're used to tea and coffee facilities in the uk. Food and beer we're great, some staff spoken english but once I bust out the German they really opened up! Superb grounds to wander about in of an evening too. Breakfast was just like and other euro breakfast, no issues. Didnt use the pool so can't comment. Plan on returning

My wife spotted this hotel - it was a the same price as a couple I had seen, but the reviews were better and it didn't disappoint. Super breakfast, helpful staff, air-conditioned, well maintained and a great location just a 15 minute walk fro the station / cathedral. We saw the hotels I had identified on-line which were on top of busy roads, and we were so pleased we stayed here.

Clean room

The guy at reception was great - helped us check in early and upgrade our room at no cost. The building and room themselves are clean, but extremely dated. I would equate it to a cheap motel in America. Hotel is located in a good spot of Cologne that is very walkable. Unfortunately we did end up switching hotels within a few hours of checking in because there is no AC. The hotel cannot control the heat wave that came through Europe, but man it was so incredibly unbearable to even stand in the building, let alone sleep. Cancellation policy is no refund at all even if you are cancelling additional nights in advance unfortunately. No parking available at all like the listing says. There is a parking garage close to the cathedral that worked out well for us. About 24 euro for 24 hour parking. They do not provide any toiletries like most hotels. No shampoo or body soap (and of course no conditioner since it’s not a thing in Europe).
