Romantic Hotels & Resorts in Altstadt-Süd from NZ$130

"I must say the staff at reception were absolutely fantastic. I like English breakfast tea and there was never a problem bringing me teabags up at the room, We stayed for five nights on the fourth night. We both noticed the noise coming from the overhead heating air-conditioning grill panel and we had it all switched off so I mentioned it’s the reception and they suggested we could leave all our stuff in the room and they give us another room on the same floor, which was wonderful of them so we slept the night in that one and it seemed to have sorted itself out the next day, so that was really good of them. There was no fuss at all. And the breakfast had a really good choice of hot and continental food, but most of all it was the staff that especially the reception staff they were amazing."

"Great location and nice room. But the elevator was broken and the sauna was made out of order while we were there."

"Amazing location, near the beautiful church, train station, and river! Plenty of restaurants inside, and nearby."

"I recently stayed at the Ahl Marketzeen Hotel, and it is truly a mixed bag. ​The Best Part: The location is unbeatable. It is right in the heart of the city, making it incredibly easy to walk to most major attractions and local shops. If being central is your top priority, this is a solid choice. ​The Downside: The building itself is quite old and feels outdated. You can tell it hasn't been renovated in a while—the decor is a bit tired, and the facilities are showing significant signs of wear and tear. ​Summary: If you just need a place to crash in a central spot and don't mind a vintage (or slightly worn) atmosphere, it’s fine. However, if you are looking for modern comforts, you might want to look elsewhere."

"I really enjoyed this hotel - it is an experience! The rooms are comfortable, almost luxurious….the breakfast buffet is amazing, they have a nice spa/sauna, and a reasonable (albeit just essentials) gym. The neighborhood is quiet, so no noise, and easy walking distance to parts of Cologne. Note: the front desk is rarely staffed, which is a key gap in case of emergency needs or scheduling changes."

"Good price and food. Unable to use TV. "
