Cerano Hotel

Cologne


This unassuming five-storey hotel is a short walk from the train station. It has an old-fashioned feel and extra gratis touches including mineral water, more apples than you'd find in an orchard and an abundant breakfast buffet. It's geared towards business travellers and has good rates on weekends.
