The spa was excellent, however the biggest surprise was the proximity to the church and the bells ringing. It is to be expected on a Sunday, but surprised at the 7.30 awakening on Monday. The room was comfortable but too warm as there was no temperature control other than being able to open the window, which directly relates to previous point. The final surprise was that my room never got serviced during the 3 days I was there. Again a little surprising, as the least I would have expected was fresh towels each day. Maybe it was part of there environmental programme, but considering the amount of laundry they must go through as a spa resort, fresh towels for guests, shouldn't effect their footprint dramatically.

The hotel is situated right on the Rhine river. It is very close to the Main railway station. Taxi is easily available and it cost 11-12 Euros one way from the station. The Cologne Chocolate museum is only 5 minutes walk from the hotel. The breakfast is very good with all the usual baked goods.

Staff are nice and helpful. Not particularly clean just acceptable I stayed there only for one night but the cleaning staff knocked my door at 930 while I was still sleeping. Also, the checkout time is noon but I did not manage to open my door after 1130. Luckily there was a staff right outside my room. That’s something the hotel can improve.
