Motel One Köln-Waidmarkt Map, Address, Transportation & Nearest Stations and Airport

The hotel is right next to the Cologne Cathedral, and there is a great restaurant downstairs, next to the train station, the traffic is very convenient. The room you stayed in was very spacious and you could spread out your suitcase at will. Drinks in the minibar are free and good value for money. The reception staff were friendly and happy to answer questions. The bellmen are also friendly. Parents stayed very satisfied.

The best hotel in Germany. The western restaurant on the second floor is especially amazing. You need to make reservations in advance at night. The details of the service are great. The hotel is the official designated accommodation hotel for the European Cup. I was lucky enough to see the England and Belgium players.

The hotel is generally OK. It is close to the train station and the cathedral. The social staff is complicated. You should be careful when traveling alone. The most depressing thing for me is that you have to go through the train station to go to the church.

In short; facilities did not live up to expectations and the price. Basically it felt like a fancy looking overpriced regular hotel . Wouldn't book again. ___Full honest review ___ * Our stay Booked a studio room at the hotel for two nights as a getaway weekend with my partner. * Spa was closed!!! :( I chose this hotel because it had a spa included, but when we got there the spa was closed due to water damage. I was quite disappointed, but didn't complain. * Misleading information, fixed easily The hotel then offered to upgrade us to a premium superior studio because I had asked for a bathtub in my booking. It had said on the website the studio I chosen had a bathtub or shower, that was wrong, none of them did. But they upgraded our room so we could have a bath and a shower, which was nice. * Aesthetics exceeded expectations The hotel looks very beautiful and luxurious, so did the premium superior studio room we had. It looks much better than the photos and isn't as dark as it looks (though it still is). The dining area and bar look very nice and have comfortable seating. However, I found the vibe at the bar a bit underwhelming compared to the inviting brauhouses and bars in the city, it had boring lounge music and is very mellow. If you like a more quiet space it's perfect. * Delicious cocktails, good but underwhelming breakfast The waitress at the bar was very nice and the cocktails were delicious. We didn't have dinner there but the food looked good too. However,, the breakfast buffet was rather small but had variety. A few salads, few fruits, fresh salmon, eggs, bacon, waffels and a limited array of breads. The food was quite good but I had expected a larger buffet with more options considering the price. * Rooms way too hot!!! No AC We noticed instantly that it was very warm in the room, when we checked the thermostat it was 23 degrees (oktober, 15-19 and raining outside). We tried to turn down the thermostat but it did not work. It stayed 23-24 degrees all night with the windows open, which was a uncomfortable night's sleep. The next day we asked the reception about it and they said they do not have AC but ”climate control”. The temperature could only be changed 3 degrees up or down. They send someone by to fix it for us, but it stayed 23-24 degrees for our entire stay. We believe it was broken. * Bed was so so The bed was fine but not the most comfortable. The warm room certainly didn't help. * Lacking guest items The studio room had the very bare minimum of guest items. There were no shower caps, sewing kits, lady items or little soaps. Instead they had large containers with soap to use by all guests untill empty, and a small kit with some cotton buds. That was it. There were no slippers or bathrobes. The kitchen was fully stocked with cooking utensils however, and there was a simply hairdryer. * Staff was nice, but a bit forgetful The staff was very friendly and helpful but also forgetful. We made use of the valley parking

Match the description

After a long hard journey we had a pleasant enough checkin, but after having paid a lot extra for booking first class rooms, we were told that the first class lounge was closed. I asked what was the point in paying sky much more for first class rooms, and I was told the rooms have coffee machines. For the price difference I could have gone and bought coffee machines, but frankly I am not interested in a coffee machine, I paid for the rooms so we could use the lounge, so I felt ripped off. My room was boiling hot, and the air conditioning does not work. They sent someone to the room, but they could not get is below 26 degrees. They changed my room to a much smaller one, but it was a bit cooler. I came back to my room having left the aircon on all day and all evening. It was still very warm. I chose this hotel as it is described as air conditioned. It is not air conditioned at all. I could not sleep, it was too warm. I called reception and they brought me a fan. I am so disappointed to have not had what I expected, and most annoyingly the room was described as air conditioned when all it really has is a noisy fan. I should ask for partial refund for our two rooms, they were not worth the money. Then, the service at the bar was terrible. We ordered a round of drinks, it took more than half an hour to bring three beers. Not busy, just really slow.
