- Cologne, Germany
Run by the Wessel family with the warmth of devoted hosts who greet arrivals with a cold Kölsch and easy conversation, this characterful Cologne guesthouse charms with individually decorated rooms, among them a blue room, a black-and-white room, and a rose room, alongside hearty, inventive home cooking from Frau Wessel and the kind of attentive, personal touches, such as a fruit bowl on the bedside and a dessert waiting in the room's fridge, that make guests feel less like paying visitors and more like welcome family.
- Cologne, Germany
The breakfast room, lit by a crackling fireplace and furnished with period pieces right down to the coffee cups, and a kitchen serving fresh fruit pressed from the hotel's own garden make the Alte Schreinerei a place of real warmth, though prospective guests would do well to request one of the main-house rooms rather than risk the smaller, mustier annexe quarters.
- Cologne, Germany
Tucked into Cologne's charming Belgisches Viertel, this intimate old-building hotel wins hearts with its thoughtful breakfast, warm homemade waffles, eggs cooked to order, and butter served at room temperature, alongside beautifully appointed rooms, attentive staff (Frank in particular earning warm praise), and a quietly residential calm that makes it feel far more like a well-loved private home than a conventional hotel.
- Cologne, Germany
Tucked into one of Cologne's few surviving Jugendstil houses in the lively Belgian Quarter, this small, quietly atmospheric guesthouse wins repeat visitors with its stylishly decorated rooms, shared kitchen, helpful and warmly approachable host, and a sense of being thoroughly in the middle of city life without sacrificing a good night's sleep.
- Cologne, Germany
Tucked into the heart of Cologne, this charming townhouse hotel wins repeat visitors with its thoughtfully decorated rooms, a well-furnished kitchen stocked with complimentary coffee and cooking essentials, and the attentive care of host Kristin, who goes quietly out of her way to make guests, including solo travellers, feel entirely at ease.
