Great location; less than 10 minute walk to the Cathedral and main Christmas markets. Unique set up having to go through the restaurant, but this wasn’t an issue and the restaurant was quite nice as well (with breakfast included).

Perfect solo traveller destination
Fantastic experience for solo traveller. Very affordable and with a brilliant breakfast included. Located in the beautiful old town by the river and with much of the city in walking distance, particularly the Döm area and the shopping centre. If I ever find myself lucky enough to return to Cologne, I'll be checking in here no doubt

Cute, quiet, friendly hotel! Little gem.
A wonderful stay, very friendly, welcoming. Good breakfast selection that’s open from 730-11 so for both early and late risers!
Beautiful views of the River and central to the sites. Not noisy at all, as they have what seems like new double glazing and the city has a quiet after 1030 regulation.
I’d 100% go back!

10/10 do recommend
Lovely place! Friendly staff, good food, good beer. Room was very small, but the bed was comfortable. Breakfast is pretty standard. Several kinds of slices meats, breads, spreads, and granola. Eggs, bacon, sausage. Nothing superbly fancy.

The hotel was amazing. The location was great, the staff was friendly, they gave us an early check-in, the restaurant was wonderful (breakfast too), I would highly recommend you the Italian cuisine. The room was decent. The only bad point was that the building didn't have an elevator, do we had to carry the luggage 3 stories ourselves. Thanks.

I go to Cologne every year for Gamescom and usually stay in the big corporate hotels. This one was half the price and had availability so I thought I’d give it a try. I loved it! Great old world vibe. Really nice, large room with effective AC (unlike most of the big hotels). Amazing location and view. Nice, friendly staff. Included breakfast wasn’t gourmet but it was fine. The restaurant is a classic German food beer hall and is great. I’ll definitely be staying here again next year.

The stay was overall great, love the quirkiness of it, it had an old German inn vibe to it, and the staff was lovely and friendly. The room was quite unique, I stayed in the top floor single room up under the roof, so a bit difficult to get up there with my heavy suitcase, 5 flight of stairs in total, most of them narrow and steep. The room is entered through the bathroom, you literally have to step over the toilet to get to the bedroom, a bit dawning to be honest, not having an extra door between the staircase and the bathroom. The shower wasn’t great, the water was only warm for a minute, just enough time to get soaped in, then it went cold and not just cold, icy cold! The window in the bathroom faced a staff area with light on all night as well as movement and activity, so the bathroom was illuminated all night, which again was a bit strange, and even though the glass was tinted I did feel a bit exposed there.
The bedroom was lovely, good bed and love that there is airconditioning, though I didn’t need it as I stayed there just before Christmas, but could imagine that room getting rather toasty in the summertime.
The breakfast was great, good selection and definitely something for everyone to choose from.

Not recommend!
Nice location charming decoration of an old building, but hodgepodge as if you are in a Goodwill arts section. Dark and old potentially hazardous stairs particularly for older people. We would not recommend unless you get a deal you couldn’t refuse

The Lowenbrau is right on the river and our room in particular had excellent river views from the top floor. I can't speak for the other rooms, but we were super happy with the 2 bedroom setup and amazing view. The facility itself is very "old school" and quirky with pictures hung everywhere, a dark, wooden restaurant (with lots of outdoor tables, too) and creaky stairs. There is no elevator so you must use the stairs to get up to the hotel rooms. The breakfast had a lot of choices with hot and cold dishes - eggs, meats, cheeses, yogurt, cereal, toast, etc. with OJ and coffee. We loved our stay and would recommend - assuming you get a nice river view from your room.
