Mercure Hotel Koeln Belfortstrasse

1. Coffee machine in room was great. 2. Good to have to the ability to cast to the Tv (as most channels otherwise were in German understandably) 3. Check out of midday was fantastic. 4. The hotel looked after our bags after check out til our train in the evening

Cleaning of the apartment is done really nicely during our stay, really thick curtains help to sleep good even during early morning/day time, apartment kitchen is very well equipped, reception and restaurant staff is very helpful, good breakfast, zoo and cable car is 10-15 minutes walk away, lot of shops, restaurants nearby, love the park nearby,

Breakfast was really good, I definitely enjoyed making myself a waffle! The selection of cheeses, meat cuts and jams for your pastry was great. As someone mentioned, it’s not really well organised, but I guess there’s some reasoning behind it :) Hotel has two buildings, we lived in the new one (I guess). I know there is a pool in the hotel, but unfortunately I didn’t have time to try it out. The location is nice, metro is near and it’s a 10-minute walk from the central train station (and the Dom).

The hotel was fantastic, and the location great, 10/15min walk to the Cathedral, and you can get cabs easily quite cheap if you prefer.

The suite we booked was wonderful and the kitchenette very helpful as we stayed for 10 days. The location is spot on, near public transport and within walking distance to the Rhine. We shall definitely come again.
