Cologne is a lovely city. The cathedral's famous but there were lots of other interesting things to see and do and some great restaurants and bars. Everyone was friendly. Recommend the open top bus tour, the chocolate museum and the bar right outside

Cologne is a very walkable city but there is really not much to do in the city centre. The cathedral is amazing and definitely worth the visit; but, the allied bombing raids took out everything around the cathedral. One or two days is plenty here.

There's stunning architecture with the Cathedral and Rhine Bridges, a fascinating WW2 era museum but the highlight for us was the Museum Ludwig - an immense collection of modern are all in a terrific gallery with amazing views of the city.

Cologne is a very nice old german town, with its impressive Cathedral, among the nicest in gothic style in Western Europe and I'm never fed up of this very impressive walk between the city center and the Messe, crossing the Rhine river.

We had a lovely guided walking tour. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, and was very fun and engaging. Would highly recommend the tour! We learned a lot about the history of Cologne in a very short time!

Cologne is an amazing city for culture, shopping and food. It is a pretty decent city for wheelchair users (my partner being one) with the majority of things being accessible. Low curbs help a lot and people do help where they can.

Cologne was festive, walkable and surprisingly relaxing.. The cathedral dome climb was challenging but great views from the top. The chocolate museum was a disappointment - save the entrance and use that money to buy chocolates.

Make sure you walk up to the Cologne Cathedral, it's an amazing place. Free to enter, and open quite late. Dinner at Peter's Brauhaus is hard to beat.
"This is a really nice hotel, in a building that is 100 years old this year. The beds are very comfortable, bathroom facilities are good, with a decent shaving mirror. The breakfast was good and was sufficient for me requiring a vegan menu, although would have liked vegan sausages, but the ham and salami substitutes made up for that.
Sadly the area around the hotel has seen better times. The U-bahn station is opposite the hotel’s main entrance and the staircases and elevators stink of urine, and could do with a visit from the Cologne City Cleansing Department.
It is also right next to Hansaring S-bahn Station which has connections to Cologne Hauptbahnhof, and other regional stations in the North Rhine-Westphalia region such as Dusseldorf, Aachen, and Koblenz which we visited using the hotel as a base to sleep and have breakfast.
It is also less than 1 mile away from the Cologne Cathedral, which is a nice walk down quiet back streets."

Have been trying to contact the staff with no luck
Got response 3 days later with confirmation that the jacket has been located but nothing happened after
