Premier Inn Köln City Mediapark

Premier Inn Köln City Mediapark

10/10 Excellent
"Initial con - there seems to be a lack of staff. Waited 20-30 mins to check in as there were no staff to check in, just the bartender. Then another day there was no bartender for about 20mins, just the receptionist. The room was spacious and quite clean, all amenities were helpful and appreciated. Bed was nice and comfy. We did come during a heatwave and thought the aircon could be cooler, but in normal weather I’m sure it’s good enough. I would return! Definitely nicer than the premier inns in the U.K."
