Köln Hotelführer: Phantasialand hotels in Köln, Deutschland

Ein sehr kleines, aber sehr feines Hotel mit sehr komfortablen Zimmern, deren Ausstattung weit über dem angegebenen Hotelstandard (Sterne) und Preisklasse liegt. Das Hotelpersonal ist extrem freundlich und professionell und, je nach Bedarf des Gastes, immer hilfs- und gesprächsbereit. Die angrenzende Lounge, in der auch das Frühstück serviert wird, ist ebenfalls so komfortabel wie stilsicher eingerichtet und lädt auch abends noch gerne zum Verweilen ein. Die Lage ist sehr zentral (10 Minuten fußläufig zum Kölner Dom und zum Hauptbahnhof) sowie hervorragend angebunden (U-Bahn zum Messegelände direkt vor der Tür); gleichzeitig sorgt die Lage in einer sehr kleinen Seitenstraße für eine äußerst geringe Lärmbelästigung, selbst bei offenem Fenster. Lediglich darauf, dass das Hotel aufgrund seiner geringen Größe weder über einen Fahrstuhl, noch über eine rund um die Uhr besetzte Rezeption verfügt, sollte man vielleicht noch einmal gesondert hinweisen. Beides ist im Allgemeinen und war auch für mich persönlich kein wirkliches Negativkriterium. Aber wer Probleme mit dem Treppensteigen hat und/oder regelmäßig zu späterer Stunde Hoteldienste in Anspruch nehmen muss/möchte, sollte sich dessen bewusst sein. Alles in allem ist das Humboldt1 Palais aber ein sehr hübsches kleines Komfort-Hotel, dass ich gerne weiterempfehlen kann und werde.

Checked in, went to my room, had a great time. Nothing to complain about.

We stayed in this hotel because of the two bedroom option. It was actually an apartment across the street on the sixth floor with a great view of the Cathedral. There was three of us and three beds to our surprise. One double in the main room with TV and the other room had a double and a single. There was only one bathroom when we were told there would be two but that ended up fine. The hotel is a fairly short walk to the main strips of shopping and across the street from check-in. The weird thing was that the parking spot I reserved was down the road a little way and we had to walk back towards the check-in bldg. to get to our apartment. Overall, very nice and we highly recommend.

great place to stay staff very helpful if you like church bells you have found the right place to stay

Greeted by very friendly lass who put up with me being over-excited about being in Germany. Staff throughout were delightful. Room slightly bigger than most. Bathroom newly renovated. Great bed. Quiet location only 5 min to Clogne Cathedral and main train station (Koln HBF). One reviewer previously was concerned about soup kitchen for homelss. They are very friendly and polite and the only problem is the food smells great so don't go back to the hotel hungry. Bike hire at Radstation for best price. Free toilets in Ludwig Museum (worth a visit for other reasons too).

Excellent apartment, great location right next to the cathedral, would use again

Excellent location, superb staff, gorgeous interior.

Relativ neues Hotel mit Super-Lage, sauberes Zimmer, funktionierendes und kostenfreies W-LAN, Parken im Parkhaus (ca. 200 m), direkter Zugang zur Gaststätte nebenan, Frühstück ok

I wanted to a base to explore the tourist areas of Cologne knowing I would be eating out every night - this was about getting a decent bed and breakfast, close to the main tourist sights, at a competitive price, in a neighbourhood that was safe and quiet - in those respects this hotel was perfect What made this so good was that the owners obviously cared about their hotel, as an example they offered free fruit and drinks at anytime of day and their breakfast was outstanding in terms of choice and quality. The hotel is tucked away on a side street but in the business district, it's 10 mins walk to the rail station, river and cathedral. I don't think you could ask for more. I had the windows open all night and there was no noise to speak off - very quiet (I was there at a weekend so maybe it was busier during the week?) Negatives? - When I went it was quite hot, with the windows open the temperature was fine but some people may prefer air con which my room did not have - Room size, I had a single room which was compact, for me it was adequate but if you intended to stay in the room in the evenings you might find it a bit small (I don't know if this affected the double rooms as well)
