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.

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.
