What guests think

Across recent reviews, Leonardo Hotel Köln Bonn Airport is praised for its walkable location next to CGN and handy shuttle, friendly staff, and generally spacious rooms, making it a practical stopover before or after flights.

Breakfast and the on-site restaurant and bar earn frequent compliments, though menu choice can feel limited. Rooms tend to be dated, and some guests reported hard-to-control heating or lack of air conditioning, occasional nighttime noise, and minor maintenance issues. Cleanliness feedback is mixed, and a few stays involved slow service or administrative hiccups. Expect a convenient, no-frills airport stay.

Conveniently located near the CGN (Köln/Bonn) airport, the hotel provides for a pleasant overnight stay before an early morning departure on a long trip. The rooms are spacious, and so are the bathrooms. A coffeemaker is in the room. There is a restaurant and a Beer Garden that also serves food, beer, and wine. The reception personnel is very friendly and helpful and the shuttle bus for the short ride to the airport runs every 15 minutes after 05:00h.

Good property close to the airport. A few issues with the bathroom plumbing and an unfortunate complementary bottle of water which couldn’t be opened as no bottle opener in the room but besides friendly staff and practical.

15€ pour le parking ( 1 nuit), c'est voler les gens. En plus mauvais service au client, si on veut commander au restaurant de l'hôtel et emporter pour manger en chambre ce n'est pas autorisé, même si à la réception on m'a dit que c'était possible. Du coup j'ai commandé auprès d'un restaurant voisin qui m'a livré directement dans la chambre.

Ik heb zeer genoten van mijn 3 daagse verblijf hier. Ze hebben een goede keuken,en een goed ontbijtbuffet. Hotel ligt maar op 1.6km van de luchthaven. Ik heb merendeels gelopen, maar je kan ook gebruik maken van de gratis shuttlebus. Ideaal voor vliegtuigspotters. Zeer vriendelijk personeel,en ze kunnen je prima te woord staan in het engels. Ik ga zeker nog een keer terug dit jaar.

Sehr nettes Personal. In der Bar konnte ich gemütlich "Nation League" anschauen. Es gab um ca. 22:40 Uhr für einen Gast, der wegen einem Flugausfall im Hotel war, sogar noch eine Kleinigkeit warm zu Essen. Im Preis war ein Shuttle-Service inbegriffen.

Leider konnte der Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel meine Erwartungen nicht erfüllen. Das Personal wirkte unmotiviert und wenig hilfsbereit – selbst auf eine einfache Anfrage nach Büroklammern erhielt ich lediglich eine ablehnende Antwort. In der Nacht löste der Feuermelder um 0:30 Uhr aus, nachdem ich das Zimmer gelüftet hatte – ein sehr unangenehmer Zwischenfall. Zudem funktionierte der Fernseher nicht, die Minibar war nicht aufgefüllt, und das bereitgestellte Glas machte einen ungepflegten Eindruck. Insgesamt war ich froh, dass es sich nur um eine Übernachtung handelte.

Alles in allem ist das Hotel gut, weil es nur 10 Fußminuten vom Flughafen weg ist. Es wird ein kostenloser Shuttlebus angeboten und in der Lobby gab's kostenlose Mini Croissants und Kaffee zum frühen Frühstück. Einziges Manco war die Heizung die sich ni ht ausschalten ließ.

Close to airport was the reason for selecting this property. However, when I called for directions to walk to the property, they told me they’d send a shuttle and to wait at the terminal. We had to call 3 times as the shuttle took so long to arrive, nearly 40 minutes. With walking directions, we could have been there in about 5 minutes. We had a very short stay and I asked for a wake up call which we never received. The hotel also charged me to stay when we checked out despite having previously paid with Expedia. I have to call Expedia to remedy the double payment….showed hotel our paid reservation on Expedia and they still required me to pay again.

Key card didn’t work not only one time but several times, for both me and a friend who stayed in another room. When it didn’t work in the evening they asked me if they could fix it in the morning meaning I had to stay in my room the rest of the night. Otherwise the hotel in general could need an upgrade. There was no hand soap in my room when I arrived.

I stayed for one night (as my flight was cancelled) and I enjoyed this stay in the hotel. Checkin was quick, room was big and the bed was comfortable. The best thing though was the complementary mulled wine in the hotel lobby (as it was shortly before Christmas) ;o). Even though I couldn't try the breakfast (had an early morning flight next day), there was complementary tea/coffee and croissants available in the hotel lobby. Perfect. Airport shuttle was free of charge as well. I can recommend this hotel without a doubt and will most definitely stay there again.
