Check hotel address if using hotels.com app
The hotels.com app has a map of the location which is incorrect, it was actually 2.5km difference, which was a problem for us as we had to walk there. When we mentioned this on check in, the receptionist didn’t seem bothered. Please check actual address and do not use the map on the hotels.com app

Nice Hotel and friendly staff.
The staff was very friendly, the Elevator was not working when we arrived, so the staff helped us carried our 2 big luggage to the 2nd!
It is a old style Hotel, but very nice and cozy , and great location! Next to the Christmas market!
I will come back and stay when I visit Brühl next time!

Clean and spacious.
Just staying overnight for Phatasialand. Room and bathroom was clean and looked recently refreshed. Staff was friendly and were also willing to look after my belongings while I was away at the park.

Very good hotel.at fair price
We slept there 1 night on our way to Phantasialand and were very satisfied with this hotel. It is located in a short walking distance from a shuttle to.Phantasialand. Our room was big and clean. Service is very friendly. And breakfast is good as well.

This hotel was rated as excellent and 3 star. However the condition of the room was not near excellent.and star should not be given more than 2. And I paid $260 for one night for 2 people. They charged $38 for the second person in the room. Considering the location and condition of the hotel, the rate was overpriced. Also I feel the charge for extra $38 for the second person in the room is unusual and made ma very unhappy. I would not recommend this hotel.

Die heute übliche kühle Einrichtung mit schwarzbraunen Einbaumöbeln und weißen Wänden. Alles in Ordnung. Nur leichter Beschädigung an Fernsehfernbedienung.
Liegt unmittelbar an mittelgroßem Einkaufszentrum.
Nettes Personal.
