As usual a very nice experience.. Excellent location in walking distance to fair grounds. Very busy hotel during all fair periods, where also prices go dramatically up... Paid 375 € for one night incl. breakfast. Check business rates for half price parking as well. Be aware of some noise from bar area and elevators for rooms facing atrium/hall. All in... More

Radisson Blu, Cologne Ideally placed for the Messe exhibition centre and also the LanXess Arena – although nether were the reason I chose it! This was because it was a Radisson, reasonably priced in Köln … and I knew I would be assured of a certain level of service and facilities. I was actually working at the Coloneum TV Studios... More

I have stayed in Radisson Blu properties across Germany, which is why I chose this one, but it is not really up to standard. The guest room is quite comfortable and bright (unless they try to give you one of the strange 5th floor rooms that are blocked by a concrete wall); in fact there is even an electronic shutter....

Stayed here for work for 5 nights during the IDS conference and it was very convenient walk to the exhibition hall (10-15mins). The room was nice, bed was small but comfortable, didn't have to many English channels on tv, wifi is free, the 2 restaurants down stairs had amazing food (one is open for breakfast and the other was open...

We reserved a week-end in this hotel through a bargain website. Hence, we had excellent value for money as far as the accomodation is concerned. The location is somewhat off the tourist track, although in nice weather it takes only 20 minutes to walk to the city center over the railway bridge. The tramway stop is just outside the hotel...

This hotel is top notch for a stopover in Cologne or a longer stay. We chose this place as it had a cheap price (£60) for 1 night and we needed something to stay when stopping off in Cologne. The hotel is absolutely fine in every respect - the rooms and lobby are very modern and functional, reception staff friendly,... More

Stayed here a few times before and again the Radisson Blu Koln met my expectations in general. Yes it's slightly away from the centre of the City (Directly opposite the Kolnmesse) but only a 20 minute walk or 10 minute Tram Ride to the infamous Cologne Cathedral using either Tram 3 or 4 from directly outside the hotel. I do... More

The hotel was just ok. The rooms are a strange modern take on design and not very attractive. The lobby and bar area is fairly nice. The hotel is located a 15-20 minute walk from downtown - and there are better located and similarly priced hotels in the downtown area that I would definitely recommend over this one. The check...

I have stayed in two different hotels last week. Both four star hotels, this one in Cologne and another hotel in Copenhagen, which allows me to make a comparison. Although the design of the Radisson Blu is really nice as well as the rooms, I am somewhat disappointed with the service of the reception's staff. To me, they appeared not... More
