Top Friesenplatz Hotel Reviews

CityClass Hotel am Dom

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing location and helpful staff!"

Dorint Hotel am Heumarkt Köln

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the room, clean, comfortable and spacious."

URBAN LOFT Cologne

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed here twice before and the only thing we would prefer is tea and coffee facilities in the room Not a deal breaker at all but would be nice Nice location with out the heavy price tag Staff really helpful"

Maritim Hotel Köln

10/10 Excellent

"Very Professional friendly staff. Check-in was slow bc everyone came back at the same to @ 3pm for admission. Front desk was superb bc they held my heavy bag until check-in was available. Huge, Huge Hotel! Lots of restaurants & (3) to (4) Huge conference rooms to use. Wow! I love the decor of this hotel, and the fact they had not only a huge swimming pool, but a gym, steam room & my favorite a Sauna room as well. Staff is always available for you. I’d definitely, recommend this Hotel not only to business travelers but just for a quick break from a business trip. I came in from the Netherlands just for a mental break, and I was happy I chose this hotel. If you have a large group to do business I’d suggest you check out their pricing for a conference room because theirs can accommodate easily over 500 people and they have a private reception for your guests. Restaurants on deck to accommodate with food as well. High End- top notch Hotel. I recommend it!"
