Allan L. Friends - 10/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I took my ex wife and daugter to your hotel and we had a great time. Service was top and everybody was kind. Made sure that we stay safe against covid. So alcohol for hands at entrance and demands to wear mask. The rooms were standard. a small bathroom. But the room had a cooler as I used to keep my water cool. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Excellent location but not a 4* hotel

David C. Couples - 18/08/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Everything about this stay was perfect. I cannot fault any aspect of my recent stay. My wife and I found the hotel to be exceptionally clean and well looked after. It is ideally located near to good bars and restaurants, and only a 15 stroll to the Cathedral and main station. The room was and had everything we needed. The staff were extremely polite and efficient - nothing was a problem. I had been communicating with Maragrethe (Reservations Manager) prior to arriving due to some confusion with the booking on Accor’s booking site however, Maragrethe ensured everything went smoothly and there were no further problems. It was also comforting to see the hotel fully adopt COVID-19 safety measures. I will most definitely be staying here again on my next visit to Koln.

Paul Friends - 09/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Everything was perfect. Friendly staff, clean, spatious room, nice beds and on walking distance from the area around Rudolfplatz, Ehrenstrasse and the famous Bermuda Dreieck. Good parking under the hotel. We only found the price of 24 euros for the breakfast buffet very expensive, so we did not take it.

Jonathan Business - 05/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Nice location, just 10 minutes from train station and 5 minutes from shopping street. However, the bed was very uncomfortable - the worse pillows I've ever had in a hotel. They are so thin, I needed 3 of them! Also, no air conditioning in the room, meaning in the summer it's going to be hot!

Dear Jonathan M., Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Mercure Hotel Koeln City Friesenstrasse. I am sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations; please allow me to express my sincerest apologies. At Mercure, we strive to provide a superior service experience for every customer; therefore your feedback is very important to us. We have different pillows at the hotel, the softer one are on the bed, harder one in the cupboards and if you ned special one we can serve this from the reception. Plaese come the next time to the reception, we will help you to have a nice sleep. We appreciate your sharing your concerns, and it is our hope that you will give us the opportunity to better serve you in the near future. Sincerely, Tom P.

One of the fine example for Accor Hotels in Germany

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

alcm64 Solo travel - 30/12/2019 TripAdvisor review

I had stayed in IBIS Hotels both in Nuremberg & Cologne, and I am sad to say that both these Hotels left me with bad taste for Accor Hotels in Germany. But alas, this Mercure Hotel came to the rescue and lifted some of these "doubts" from my bad experiences. The staffs are more "professional" and live up to the standard & recognition that ACCOR is an International Hotel Chain, not some local domestic or family run hotel chain. So, I would conclude that it is most probably not the culture, it is the misconception of both the IBIS Hotel staffs on what kind of establishment that they are actually working for. Thank You to Mercure Hotel staff for a "friendlier" German hospitality.

Dear "alcm64", we very much appreciate your comments regarding your stay at the Mercure Hotel Koeln City Friesenstrasse. It is always a pleasure to receive positive feedback. I will share your comments with our team. I am sure that this feedback will serve as an encouragement to all of our staff as we strive to continuously improve the quality of our services. Of course, standards in IBIS 2**hotels are a bit different to Mercure 4**** standards. So perhaps Mercure is the better adress for you and corresponds more to your ideas of a pleasant hotel stay. Our Mercure Hotel Köln City Friesenstraße excists for more than 30 now in the heart of cologne and we hope to they as professional and friendly for much longer as well to welcome you back again.

Nice people trying but no air conditioning in my room so I am now suffering from dehydration and water retention

TripAdvisor rating 2.0/5

Laurence S Friends getaway - 25/07/2019 TripAdvisor review

The hotel and staff were great in most aspects. I was given a good room and allowed free use of the mini bar which helped greatly. The water is a must and the coke being cold helped. Two beers on offer although I only tried one. The breakfast was great too. However not having air conditioning is a killer for me. If I get too hot I suffer. I have returned home dehydrated and have really bad water retention as a result. This isn't all the fault of the hotel but once I've spent a night trying to sleep and being too hot it first takes me hours to recover then days.

Dear GlobeTrotting293883, thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Mercure Hotel Koeln City Friesenstrasse.

We stay here overnight on our way to Berlin. If you are after night life this is the place to stay. Our room faced on to the main road. The bars and restaurants were busy and noisy but once we shut the window it did not disturb our sleep. Would not rate the hotel 4 star but for an overnight stop off we would stay here again.
