Hotel und Restaurant Löwenbräu Köln

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.

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).

Very polite and helpful staff. Location is great if you love the old market. Neighbourhood was a bit noisy but acceptable. Room is clean and tidy. I had a very comfortable stay.

Excellent hotel in a beautiful part of town, the staff were very helpful. The lobby and the rooms are absolutely gorgeous. Would definitely recommend.

Good location next to the river and good breakfast.
