Left of Rhine, Cologne hotel rooms at the Independent

"My partner and I enjoyed our stay at this property. It was a little out of the way for some of the things we wanted to do but it only added a little bit more walking. The property itself was very well maintained and we would recommend it to anyone staying in the area."

"Close to all key areas and transport options. Modern rooms with kettle and coffee pod machines"

"Large rooms, great breakfast buffet and very responsive staff. "

"I was nervous about booking this hotel based on the reviews but it far surpassed our expectations. All staff were very helpful, 24 hour reception, extensive free breakfast, lift, clean bedding and room, a safe and hair dryer in the room, very close to transport restaurants and supermarkets. Only minor downside is no kettle in the room. I would recommend this hotel to any and would definitely stay here again if I was in the city."

"Hotel was perfect for the few nights we were there. Close to many things and super clean. Staff were friendly and rooftop terrace has a wonderful view. "

"It was an amazing stay. Have stayed many times before but not in the last 10 years. Was even better now with live entertainment on both nights. Staff were fabulous. Room was on 6th floor so we had a perfect view of the city"

"Very nice comfortable and good size room for two. It is about a couple of minutes walk from tram stn and around 10 min walk to main cathedral Dom."

"I really loved my stay here and the restaurant on the roof is lovely. There is construction work outside which is annoying but it's not the fault of the hotel. The rooms are great and there are lots of quirky characteristics to the hotel itself. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it."

"Very nice hotel . Close to center city"
