BURNS Art Cologne

Nothing to do near by, only a limited amount of parking and a small bar menu

Generally very good however, bed was uncomfortable and lots of noise from neighbouring rooms. Service from the staff was excellent.

Have stayed in the 'burns' hotel before, but wasn't aware they have 2 buildings, 1 is the 'art' and the other 'fair and more'. The fair and more is much more nicely decorated than the art which I was dumped into this time. When I called reception to ask if they could change my room they were very rude and abrupt telling me no. The room itself may be nice to some but just seems unfinished to me, bare concrete in most places, including the very cold floor! The shower drain was partially blocked, which I didn't realise until after I got out of the shower and found that the bathroom now had a couple of inches of water on the floor which was leaking out into the main room. Guess I should be thankful for the lack of carpet now! The only real plus point is the proximity to the main messe/fair hall...

Stayed for 6 nights during my training downtown Cologne. The hotel offered what I needed, free parking (otherwise scarce in the city), comfortable beds and very tasty and varied breakfast. The walk to the city centre near to cathedral took me about 40 minutes, but going through the Rhine Park along river made the walk quite pleasant daily excercise:-). It is also possible to use public transport.

The Burns Art Hotel is a very modern structure. The accommodations were fine, but not my most favorite on our trip so far. Just a little too sterile for my tastes.

This Hotel is located in a safe family apartment type neighborhood. Very close to public transportation and had safe on street parking. Great local restaurants near by. Rooms where very modern with polished concrete floors. The shower floor tiles could be updated.

The Setting: Double room on the second floor (one flight of stairs up) in the building with the open garage beneath. The Good: Room was very large and there was plenty of parking on the premises. Bathroom also had plenty of space, was clean, and the shower fit one person well. Gummy bears on the pillows were also a nice, welcoming touch. Bed was comfortable as well; however, didn't sleep well on the first night (out of two) due to reasons detailed below. The Meh: Area on the ceiling between the window and the curtains was dusty and had spiderwebs; definitely a neglected part of cleaning. At night, was woken up several times despite being a relatively deep sleeper due to ticking/clicking sounds in the room from (what I believe were) the lights behind the headboard, the walls, and also the window. Would not recommend this place for light sleepers, but would be fine after a long, tiring day.

Very clean, modern hotel with an elevator and semi close to downtown. I am pregnant and chose this hotel because it listed air conditioning, come to find out it is not individually controlled. So on our second day we requested our room temperature be decreased to 16, but upon returning it was still 22, our room felt cooler, but we were disappointed we couldn’t control it as I overheat due to be pregnant. The website claimed free parking, when we arrived there were parking spaces that matched omthe toom numbers, however both nights someone was parked in our spot so we had to drive the neighborhood to find street parking. The room had nice features including; mini fridge, blackout shades, seating, desk, desk lights, and was spacious. The bathroom was well designed and the high ceilings made the room feel large. It’s a 5 km walk into downtown Köln and the hotel is located in a warehouse/ apartment area. There is a grocery store located a couple of blocks away, but we were only able to located one restrauant within walking distance.

The hotel itself was excellent, a little far from the cathedral on a walking distance, but really close and easy to reach by taxi. Parking was very easy and the hotel was clean and very comfortable.

Perfect!
