The Brandenburger Hof is family run with efficiency and friendliness. It's a good location just 5 mins walk from the rail station and centre. The rooms are clean but small and basic and many, like ours, have shared facilities, so we thought it expensive at 60 euros. But this does include a really nice breakfast buffet, beautifully presented by the... more

Welcoming, friendly, trusting, courteous, helpful, multi-lingual staff throughout- why do so many hotels often with far more grandiose aspirations find it difficult to instill in their staff that a smile will go a long way in helping good customer relations? If the folk here say can I help you then you know they will mean it. The hotel is extremely... more

I travelled alone to Cologne and stayed at Brandenburger Hof for 1 night. This is a family owned hotel and I feel very welcome and safe. The location is very good, near the main DB station and all the attractions within Cologne are within walking distance from the hotel. The owners are can speak very good English and they are... more

Having stayed at this hotel about twice a year for very many years, we thought it was time we told everyone how good it is. The rooms are small, but the facilities are good, and the prices very competitive indeed. The best aspects of this hotel include the fact that although very close to the DB station, it is far... more

I traveled in June with a family group of 7. We spent our first night in Cologne after flying in to Frankfurt (took the train, 45 min). We stayed at the Brandenburger Hof and were well pleased. 1. We could walk to the hotel from the train station with our luggage. Not the most scenic walk--road work is being done... more

The week I travelled to Cologne there was a trade fair on, so all hotels put up their prices and this was one of the cheapest I could find that was actually available, though 120€ per night wasn't that cheap. Positives: breakfast was very nice and if you are in the hotel during the day they offer you coffee, tea... more

Just returned from a couple of nights in the Brandenburger Hof in Cologne. The hotel staff was great, very helpful and very friendly. The location of the hotel was just opposite the main trainstation and approx. 5minutes walk to the Dom and shopping street. We even got a private parking space. The parking I think is limited so ask before... more

I stayed here for one night for €38, and found it was everything I wanted for the night I spent in Cologne. They hotel is about a three minute walk north of the train station. The reception clerk spoke excellent English, later directing me to a local brewery/beer cellar. The room was on the second story. I did not see... more
