It was the best hotel I have been to so far. Everything from the food to the care of the rooms, the exterior and the SPA, everything was perfect.

This place is just amazing. The reality is even better than the pictures, it has to be seen to be believed. I've never stayed anywhere like this before.
Great staff, great food, the local area has some nice restaurants, not too hard to get to Cologne (it's at the end of tram line 1).
The wifi was a bit inconsistent but that's fairly common.
I'm definitely going back.

Service was poor and slow. A/C didn't work well in the room. The hot tub wasn't hot. Breakfast buffet was a ripoff.

Wonderful Hotel
This is a very impressive hotel. No detail is left out. From the service on check in to the restaurant and bar all was excellent. Be sure to make dinner reservations as it was booked on our arrival. However, we had a great meal and exceptional service having dinner at a hi top on the bar.

A true classic, five star hotel with everything you could wish for and Amelia functioning perfectly.
From the furnishings to the layout to the views to the location to the grounds, even to the small town just steps outside of the hotel property it is paradise. Add to this add to this the extraordinary restaurant offerings and proximity to cologne by urban transit. It makes for an extraordinary stay.

This was hands down the best experience with a hotel my partner and I have ever had. Our flights got changed and our luggage was lost (coming from the USA), but the staff were friendly and helpful throughout the entire mess.
Not only were the staff pleasant, the hotel itself is beautiful. My partner and I were enthralled to experience such a gorgeous building during our first out of country travel.
If given the chance, we would happily stay here again. Worth every penny.
