Parkgebühr im art‘otel Cologne? Nein danke!
Pros:

Personal und Frühstück gut, Betten bequem, Zimmer sauber

Cons:

Fenster des Zimmers zur Hauptstrasse nicht ausreichend lärmgedämmt, Waschbecken nicht im Bad, sondern auf einer an der gesamten Zimmerwand verlaufenden Holzplatte, die in der Größe das Zimmer nur unnötig verkleinert. Durch die Waschgelegenheit im Zimmer logischerweise Schimmelbildung in der Ecke. Obwohl gut ausgestattete Bar in der Lobby, ist sie nicht besetzt. Getränke und Snackautmat anstatt wie in einer Jugendherberge. Der Preis für einen Autoabstellplatz draußen oder in der Tiefgarage sprengt alles, was ich jemals in einem Hotel bezahlt habe. Hier rechnet man stundenweise ab und kompensiert in Raubritter ähnlicher Art und Weise den relativ günstigen Übernachtungspreis.

Pros:

Die besondere Atmosphäre des Hotels mit der Kunstthematik war besonders. Die aussicht aus unserem Zimmer vom Balkon aus direkt auf den Rhein und Schokoladenmuseum war sehr schön.
Leckerer Frühstück, nettes Personal

Cons:

Das Waschbecken außerhalb des Badezimmers fanden wir nicht so praktisch. Aber das ist Meckern auf hohem Niveau.

Stylisches Hotel in guter Lage zum guten Preis.
Pros:

Unser Zimmer befand sich im 4. Stock zur Straße raus, was uns bekannt war. Wir wollten jedoch keinen Aufpreis für ein anders gelegenes Zimmer zahlen, da wir nur eine Nacht gebucht haben. Wir haben das Fenster nicht geöffnet, da die Lautstärke von der Hauptstraße her schon heftig war. Aber es gab eine Klimaanlage, die gut funktionierte.

Im Bad befindet sich die Toilette und eine große Dusche. Das Waschbecken befindet sich im Zimmer, das war uns bekannt und nicht störend.

Das Zimmer war sauber und modern.

Die Lage war sehr gut, gegenüber dem Schokoladenmuseum, a. 20 min. Fussweg am Rhein entlang zum Moulin Rouge, was unser Reisegrund war.

Das Frühstück war sehr gut. Es war alles reichlich vorhanden und es fehlte nichts.

Cons:

Wir haben nichts zu bemängeln.
