10/10 Exceptional

Loved the hotel, relatively easy parking for Cologne. Walking distance to everything downtown. Free GOOD Coffee 24/7, which is basically the most important need I have. If there’s one thing, the elevators are a little suspect😅. But that’s probably due to retrofitting them into an antique building. I will be staying there again next year when I come back.

Great hotel and a roof top bar

The water tower's been beautifully redesigned into a hotel. Rooms and beds are super comfortable.The roof top bar is excellent. Can't wait to stay here again!

I stayed at 8th floor and during checkin my key card didnt work and had to go reception twice. During breakfast , the lady couldnt find my name and had to wait long. But it was top of the list. There was no amenities in the room accept towels. Looks like the room was not ready. Overall my experience was poor

Air conditioning was broken in first room (not cooling below 24.3C) and if you opened the door all rooms in that floor could access your room because there are no divisions in the balconies. The fridge did not work either, the solution was to take it out of the furniture and put it in the middle of an already small room. Did get moved on the third day to a similar room with working ac for one night, the second night it did not cool below 22 C. While in the city not much attractive in close vecinity. Bar upstairs was nice on the other hand.

Beautiful Building

A beautiful building directly opposite an aqua park and a short 10 minute walk to Neuplatz. The area immediately outside was quiet. Nice spacious room (king junior suite on 3rd floor) with a comfy bed and a view of the aqua park. The lighting level of the room was a little low for my preference, even with all lights and lamps switched on. The bed was comfy but I did later notice that the quilt had a stain on it. One day, I was only left 1 bath towel. I could not get the phone in my room to work. The breakfast was very disappointing. I went once at 09:30 and the buffet items had all but been taken so had to wait for replenishments. I opted for a more expensive hot breakfast (31 euros) but nobody came to take my order. The room service menu was disappointing, especially given that the only other dining option was bar snacks in the rooftop bar. I did eat there one evening and found that the service was good, and whilst a restricted menu, the food was hot and delicious, and I enjoyed a cocktail. There was often only one receptionist at the desk so you tended to have to wait to ask a simple question. They were professional and helpful though. The lobby was compact but visually impressive. The spa (5th floor) was disappointing in that there were no staff, no lockers or changing rooms. There was a nice relaxation area with loungers and a nice, clean, spacious sauna. There was no steam room. Cologne is a beautiful, friendly city.

I booked a three-night business stay at the Wasserturm Hotel Cologne, Curio Collection by Hilton, through Expedia and paid in full. I was drawn to the hotel's unique design but unfortunately checked out early on the second day. Here are the pros and cons of my experience: Pros: - Very Impressive design of the building - Friendly staff at breakfast - Beautiful Nice open-air garden area Cons: 1. Upon arrival at 10:00 pm after a long day, the receptionist checked us in hastily without providing information about amenities like the free mini-bar or open-air garden. 2. The room lacked business amenities such as shoe polish, toothpaste, and shaving cream. 3. The bed mattresses were worn out and should be replaced, although the pillows were comfortable. 4. The air conditioning did not work effectively. 5. Lack of ventilation in the room led to a musty smell. 6. The bed sheets were soiled and stained. 7- lights in the room are very dim particularly at night. In conclusion, as a business traveler, I do not recommend this hotel. Despite the positive aspects, the overall experience was disappointing, and I chose to leave prematurely. Unfortunately, I was charged for the full three-night stay as I had already paid upfront.

No customer service to help with suitcases, checking in to our room, no security in the building, anyone can walk in off the street, take the lift or stairs to any floor. Someone knocked on our door when we opened the door some drunk young guy pushed in to enter our room however my wife pushed him out and closed the door, when we complained they didn’t know what to do. I asked them to check the security cameras on that floor, no cameras anywhere other than the reception. They apologised and said they had a function on that evening so could have been anyone wondering through the hotel. There are homeless, drunk and drugged people around the block with empty and broken bottles on the footpath. The reason we booked this hotel is it had a Hilton brand, unfortunately was more like a 3 star motel. I will not stay here again and do no recommend it.

Vi havde et fint ophold på et hotel med en praktisk og central beliggenhed. Værelset var pænt indrettet, og sengene var meget komfortable, hvilket gav os en god nattesøvn. Morgenmaden kunne dog have været bedre – udvalget var en smule sparsomt og ikke særligt inspirerende. Det trak lidt ned, men alt i alt levede hotellet op til vores forventninger. Et særligt højdepunkt var baren på toppen, som absolut er et besøg værd – fantastisk udsigt og god stemning.

Tout était parfait sauf les ascenseurs. À cause du bar qui semble être très populaire en ville, il y avait beaucoup de monde qui voyageait et c’était loin d’être efficace. Un ascenseur dédié au bar devrait être installé et un autre juste pour les clients de l’hôtel. Sinon, tout le reste était parfait.
