This friendly family hotel is within easy walking distance from the railway station (where you'd end up taking the S-Bahn from the airport, too). It is an old building, but perfectly clean and "unsmelly". Service (24 hrs!) very forthcoming. As other visitors rightly remarked, there is no real bar, but a suitably large selection of bottles drinks in a large... More

My friend and I stayed here for 3 nights whilst visiting the Christmas markets. We had 2 single rooms on the 3rd floor. Both rooms were spotlessly clean with a comfortable single bed and large shower room. The rooms faced the inner courtyard, so there was no real view, but it was very, very quiet at night. The breakfast was... More

We stayed in the Ludwig in May 2012 while attending an exhibition in Dusseldorf for 3 days. The idea was to avoid the expensive hotels there while only being a 30-minute (free) train-ride away. The hotel is almost opposite the Marriot and 2 minutes walk from the main railway station in Cologne and not much further from the old city... More

My boyfriend and I went to cologne with my mother in law and her husband, we had 2 seperate rooms, both quite nice, nothing fancy ,however very comfortable. The bed was soooo comfortable, with big puffy covers and comfortable pillows. I was exhausted and it was the best sleep I had in about a week at least! We bought a... More

We stayed here Dec 2011 for a weekend to visit the Christmas Markets. We had a room with 3 single beds for myself, my daughter and grandaughter. The room was spacious enough for us all, the breakfast buffet was very good with cereals, bacon, sausages, juices etc and could not be faulted. The hotel is only 5 minutes walk from... More

I have visited Koln many years in a row and have always stayed at the Marriott across the street because I have a friend who was a travel agent and we got agent rates and always noticed the Hotel Ludwig right across the street. This year we decided to check in on the Ludwig and see what offers they had.... More

Every couple of years I attend a big exhibition at the KolnMesse. I like to be near the old town for the choice of restaurants in the evening and the walk over the railway bridge after 8 hours in an exhibition hall is most welcome. This year I stayed in the Ludwig hotel and apart from it's smallish room, was... More

A very nice hotel 3 minutes walk from the cathedral & train station. It's on the other side of the train station from the cathedral, so you look for the Breslauer Platz exit of the Hauptbahnhof. Brandenburger Strasse runs roughly parallel with the train, about 2 streets up. We discovered the Hotel Ludwig after a less pleasant night spent down... More
