The Holiday Inn Express is located on the outskirts of Cologne. It will take you at least 20minutes to get from the hotel to the city centre by tram. It's possible to walk, much of which can be done along the bank of the River Rhine, but I think its about 3 miles. The hotel itself is located just off... more

Spent two nights here. Hotel is well maintained, clean and is standard Holiday Inn Express. Varying quality of staff on reception - check in didn't go smoothly but staff that came on during the evening were helpful in giving advice about locations and travelling distances within Germany. If you are going to Cologne to experience the city, then I would... more

We stayed there for a long weekend this month. I agree with most of viewers, this place is very clean and well kept. The room is not great big, but you don't spend too much time in the room either. This place is easy to reach by the tram #4 by a shot walk, the neighborhood is rather plain, nothing... more

Hotel is situated about a 5 min walk from Berliner Strasse tram stop (line 4) and trams run quite late during the week or all night at weekends, so a good option if you decide to head out in Cologne although it would take about 12 mins to reach Messe/Deutz and 20 mins to Heumarkt by tram. Room is up... more

This is the third consecutive stay in this hotel when we visit Cologne. We have a habit of going there for the christmas markets that are organised in the entire city during the month of december. The hotel has a price that's difficult to beat, is easily reacheable from the motorway, and has quite good access to the city center... more

I stayed at this hotel on a business trip. I generally like HI Expresses as no frills, value for money when you are just looking for a bed for the night. I actually had an appointment cancel and so spent most of the afternoon there. It is located just off the autobahn between Koln and Dusseldorf. The rooms were nice... more

I've stayed at this hotel a couple of times, the last time being December 06. The hotel is location in the North of Cologne about 15 minutes by public transport from the centre of town. The rooms are clean and adequate and the staff are friendly. The bar is reasonable and if you are a priority club member you receive... more

We arrived after a long journey from Weeze airport (Ryanair). We got the train/tram (it's both, goes over and underground), to Muelheim Berlinerstrasse and walked to the hotel 5-10 mins. Arrived and all was well. Staff helpful. Room fine. Clean. All you need really. Bar in foyer was quite inexpensive. We got a free drink too, I think it was... more

Zu empfehlen, wenn mann gut und günstig Köln erkunden möchte. Fazit Gastronomie: Wenn das Hotel gut belegt ist, klappt das... more
