Steigenberger - accommodation in Vingst

The hotel is in an excellent location for exploring Cologne. Check in was easy and the room was well proportioned and had everything we’d need. A de reasons it wasn’t a 5 star for us was the sheets were incredibly itchy. We both had a rash on our legs after night one and this continued during our stay. The room was quite dusty and the bathroom had marks all over the tiles of old shampoo. On our first night, my husband got a beer from the bar. The server unloaded and re-loaded the dishwasher and wiped all the surfaces before paying us any attention, even though we were the only people there. I asked for an Aperol Spritz and she said they could only do beer. She told us to pay at the main desk and didn’t come over to take our payment for almost ten minutes. Pretty good overall, but these stood out to us.

The hotel was excellent. Clean, comfortable and only a short walk to the main areas of cologne and perfect for the chocolate factory museum.

Great room and location
