The hotel has an awesome, very central location near bars, nightlife spots, the old town, river. the rooms are tidy and bright with a great bathroom and a nice balcony.

Overall perfect hotel, delicious meals.

Tasty and marvellous breakfast - 3 star level. Spotless, airy room provided with all essential Things, balcony, great bathroom. Elegant ambiance, great location.

Good for price, airy, unadorned but clean walls. Usual German fine breakfast. Within walking distance of Dom & city centre, with shopping streets en route, & also well served by public transport and taxis. The featured free bike is well maintained but small frame and of a traditional style that non Germans might find awkward.

The breakfast here is fantastic! 🥓 You can find bacon, delicious coffee, and fresh products that cater to every taste preference.

The location, the cleanliness, the breakfast and the value.

Need to leave key at desk and be buzzed in late at night.

It was just what we were expecting, a nice hotel within walking distance (25min) to the Dom (there is also a U-bahn station 1 min away), clean and tidy.

Hotel Esplanade is a unique base for exploring Cologne and nearby attractions. the rooms are spacious and airy, with a great shower, romantic red color theme, and a balcony. - the hotel has an elegant atmosphere and a great restaurant, making for a very comfortable overall experience.

Really nice hotel, close to city center. Quite good price with breakfast included. Close to restaurants and shopping area

There could be a possibility to make tea/coffee in the room The hotel doesnt have its own parking, be prepered to use city parking at superk market (payable)

Cleanliness and staff apologising when they realised their mistakes though they had problem speaking English. Well done

Lack of meals and breakfast should be started a bit ealry to accommodate visitors going for confereances starting as early as 0900hrs. breakfast is at 0800hrs and have to eat in a hurry in order to get to the rtain station and go to the converance venue. they should do the same thing for all their customers regardless i.e regards payment. some customers pay when they check in and some pay as they do booking resulting in confusion of being asked to pay twice. an elctric kettle in the room will be great considering that they dont offer any meals except breakfast

The beds were spacious and the family room was significantly large.

Gorgeous hotel with free Wi-Fi and courteous staff. Great sized room, exceptionally comfortable bed and clean bathroom. Marvellous and very very good breakfast selection for all tastes with eggs which was nice and great coffee...

Very clean, comfortable, staff was friendly, breakfast was quite good (especially the times, Saturday until 12)

No complaints, really, except that they closed off former balconies and just made windows.

Cozy bed that feels like sleeping on a cloud, a spotless bathroom, a mini fridge to stash your goodies, a handy phone, and even a dining table in my room! 🛋️

Value for money good breakfeast

not very comfortable rooms, noisy from steet, not very kind personal - man - at the reception
