Top Wallraf Square Hotel Reviews

Maritim Hotel Köln

8/10 Good

"The room was fabulous and parking was fairly easy. Elevators took a while and a lot of places closed, including the pool."

CityClass Hotel Alter Markt

10/10 Excellent

"This location is perfect for exploring Cologne. We could not have been happier with our choice."

Mauritius Hotel & Therme

10/10 Excellent

"Greta stay"

Kommerzhotel Köln

8/10 Good

"Great location! Lots of things to do nearby. Ok breakfast for the price. Friendly staff."

Excelsior Hotel Ernst am Dom

8/10 Good

"We dropped off our luggage early. Our rooms were not ready, but of course we did not expect them to be because it wasn't 3:00 pm yet. We went out and came back to the hotel around 3:30. Neither room was ready. Hmmm. The kind man at the front/concierge desk offered us drink vouchers for the wait and promised the rooms would be ready in 15-20 minutes. Okay. We went away and came back about an hour later. Rooms STILL not ready, but the front desk said they would be ready in about 5 min. When we finally did get into our rooms, our luggage, which was supposed to be waiting for us, was not there and we had to call the front desk to ask for it. Our room had robes but no slippers; oddly, our traveling companions' room did have slippers. The rooms were lovely and quiet but the shower sprayed water everywhere. Bar service was wonderful. I'd probably stay here again but honestly was annoyed that our rooms were not ready for over 1.5 hours past check-in time."

Hyatt Regency Cologne

10/10 Excellent

"There was nothing that was missing or that we needed that the staff here didn’t take care of. Breakfast was amazing, rooms were clean and spacious, and anything we needed around town was taken care of quickly by the concierge. Highly recommend staying here, the views are amazing also"

Hotel Domspitzen

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely clean hotel, perfect base to explore Cologne. The breakfast was amazing, so much choice and it kept us going all day."

Eden Hotel Früh am Dom

10/10 Excellent

"The location is great and the staff were vey helpful and kind. We needed a lot of assistance with our luggage and they were very helpful. There is a lot of construction going on around so navigating a car might be hard but you can see the cathedral right from the breakfast window. It’s a great spot."

Novotel Köln City
