Hotel was in a quiet street,excellent location for sightseeing and train station. Rooms were clean and adequate size and great breakfast options. Overall a very positive experience,thank you to all at Hotel Ludwig Superior.

Great hotel within easy walking distance of everything - tucked away behind the main station (but not right on top of it) and just up from the river and main bridge. The hotel has a friendly family feel, the room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was lovely. Would definitely recommend this as a good mid-range place to stay when visiting Cologne.

Our room wasn't cleaned one of the days - but probably our fault as we were a bit late going out that morning. And the cleaner turned the radiators (in the room and the bathroom) back on, despite our having turned them off. But pretty minor issues, and nothing that was going to spoil our stay!

Very friendly, welcoming and helpful reception staff. Attentive staff at breakfast. Location very close to central train station. Requested a quiet room and this was provided. Shower really good. Even though I only stayed two nights the towels were changed and room freshened on second day of stay. Breakfast buffet excellent.

No tea coffee making facilities in room. If this is not provided due to space or safety reasons I suggest you consider leaving the hot water supply in dining room ( that is available at breakfast) available throughout the day with tea and coffee for guests to make a refreshment when they return to hotel.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The hotel was clean and catered well for guests - not part of a big chain. We enjoyed the breakfast, good selection of food coffee and teas and excellent service. It is just a 5 minute walk from the main station and they were able to accommodate us at short notice when delays meant we missed our connecting train. Would make a good base for a longer stay.

The pillows were too soft for us, and no tea and coffee making facilities in the room.

The hotel was just a few hundred yards away from the main railway station The staff were very helpful and courteous at all times. We had the suite on the first floor, and it is huge, a massive living and dining area, separate bedroom and bathroom. If they put a kitchen in, it could be a one bed apartment, it was that big The rooms were all clean, and there was coffee making facilities in the room. Breakfast catered for everyone, cooked breakfast available, yogurts, fruit, pastries, cereals.

This property is great, but My only gripe, and this goes for every hotel not just this one. The size of the bath towels! Fine if you’re a child of 12 and under, not so good if you’re an adult

This hotel has impressed me to such as extent that I'm now sitting in the balcony of my room writing this review. The customer service is superb, extremely helpful and polite staff, the rooms are simple but comfortable and everything one needs and recently renovated bathrooms. Breakfast is good and forget about machines, they bring you hot coffee in beautiful china to your table. Not to mention the amazing location close to the main station

I'm very glad with the experience, but potential points of improvement include investing on a faster and bigger lift and a bit better chairs on the balcony. The internet could be better.

A cute hotel with an amazing location (just a two minute walk from the station!) The staff was friendly and always available at the front desk. And even though the breakfast wasn't very extravagant, the food was fresh and tasty and a good way to start the morning. With the airconditioning on the rooms are quite pleasant and a good place to wind down.

The beds are a little harder than we had hoped but not a big issue. The rooms got a bit too warm (quite fast) so it's great that you can control the airconditioning to help cool down. I would have appreciated more warm vegetarian options (for ex., vegetarian sausages) for breakfast but there are also cheeses etc. to choose from at the buffet.

Location was perfect, so close to the train station and the Cologne Cathedral. The front desk man was the nicest human I’ve ever met. I showed up at 11am praying a room was available for early check in because I was exhausted, but none were since it was fully booked. He offered me the only room available which was quite small, but I was so grateful and appreciative of it, the size didn’t bother me one bit. I’d stay here again!

The mattress was quite firm, but I guess some people might like that.

Exceptional location as it’s just a two minute walk from the Cologne Hbf station. The hotel is very cozy and charming with its retro style. It’s very clean and comfortable! All the staff are super friendly and helpful especially Hans and the gentleman who still made us the delicious breakfast bag to go as we had to check out early to catch our train (sorry I didn’t catch his name but thank you again! It was delicious!).

Everything was great!

The staff at the Ludwig were lovely and the hotel is conveniently located just about 10 minutes walk from the cathedral square. Due to some maintenance work being done, the Ludwig weren't able to provide their normal breakfast service. However, they provided very generous packed lunches instead. Lovely!

The hotel is only about 2 minutes walk from the train station, which is convenient but the station itself felt a bit unsafe. Obviously, this isn't the fault of the hotel!
