Heart of Old Town

Located at Heumarkt square in Cologne's Innenstadt district, the hotel is 200 meters from Wallraf Richartz Museum and 1 km from Cologne Central Station. St. Maria im Kapitol church is steps away. Cologne Cathedral and the Rhine River are within walking distance. Bus and train stops are directly in front of the hotel.

Safety features include carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, and smoke detectors. Wedding services and meeting rooms are available.

“I think this hotel's connection to the Mühlen Kölsch brewery definitely shapes its identity, for better and worse. While the location at Heumarkt square is ideal, reports of late-night noise from the venue are concerning. For those prioritizing sleep, alternative options might be preferable.”
