Gutes Hotel für ein Wochenende
Pros:

Die Lage. Zimmergröße. Bequemes Bett.
Große Dusche.

Cons:

Bad schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen-Risse im WC. Es fehlt mir ein Haltegriff in der Dusche - fehlt in vielen Hotels.
Frühstück war so semi. Niemand fragt nach der Zimmernummer.

Low comfort
Pros:

The receptionist was very helpful.

Cons:

Because of a last-minute change of plans, I booked the room very late at night. Unfortunately, we had to wait about an hour for the booking to appear in the hotel system. Even though I showed my confirmation email and reservation code, we were kept waiting. Later, the receptionist helped us by checking us in manually.

We only took a shower, slept, and checked out early in the morning. However, compared to other NH hotels I have stayed at before, the room quality was low. Also, the location was far from the Cathedral. If I come back again, I will try the other hotel, NH Collection Mediapark. NH Köln Altstadt received a low score from me.
