Highlights

Brewery: On-site Mühlen Kölsch brewery with specialty beer tap in select rooms

Dining: Regional cuisine restaurant with themed dinner nights and breakfast buffet

Rooms: Soundproofed, allergy-free rooms with in-room beer tap option

“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.”
