“I appreciate the hotel's commitment to modern amenities, particularly the innovative use of robotics for refreshments. Its location, while not the prettiest, is undeniably convenient for accessing the Kölnmesse and Lanxess Arena. The event spaces are versatile, and the on-site restaurant's glass ceiling is quite a spectacle.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests at the Radisson Blu Hotel Koeln often appreciate the spacious and clean rooms, some offering garden views, along with comfortable beds. The hotel's proximity to the Lanxess Arena and the Köln Messe exhibition center is a plus for many, though the city center is about a 20-25 minute walk to the Cathedral. While some guests have noted that parking incurs an additional fee of 20€ per night, the extensive gym, the good breakfast buffet and the self-service drink area receive positive attention.

solid hotel near the arena

convenient locationgood breakfasthandy shopfriendly staff
I appreciated the convenient location near the lanxess arena. breakfast offered a good variety of choices and i found a table easily each morning. the mini shop in the lobby was quite handy. It helped me grab snacks and drinks as there wasn't much else nearby. i also found the staff very friendly.
getting service at the bar was difficult. i observed a lady behind the counter occupied with her phone.

the hotel seemed mainly for business users. it made it less inviting.

the staff seemed attentive and helpful, especially at the bar.
The room's air conditioning barely worked. It struggled to cool the space even on moderate days. the minibar was empty upon arrival. replenishing it never happened despite my request. the lack of cold drinks was a major letdown
