Property Description
Bordering the Rhine River, Lindt Chocolate Museum and Cologne’s city center, the NH Köln Altstadt hotel, formerly known as NH Köln City, is a feast for all of the business or leisure traveler’s senses.

Built in 2002, the NH Köln Altstadt has 204 spacious, plush, modern rooms, many with views of the Rhine or Cologne Cathedral. Guests can seek additional refreshment in the ample spa facility, which includes a sauna, steam bath and relaxation room. For dining options, enjoy the breakfast buffet .

Location is great — very close to the chocolate factory and about a 25-minute walk to major attractions like the church and the famous Café Reichard.
