Based on recent reviews

Hotel Drei Kronen is appreciated for its superb location, a short walk from both the river and the Cologne Cathedral. Many guests find the rooms spacious, some featuring comfortable German beds and offering pleasant views of the Rhine. You'll find the main train station conveniently close, and while some guests felt that bathrooms could be a bit small, the in-room Nespresso machine often stands out as a delightful amenity.

Excellent Location near the River

central location spacious room clean accommodation

The location proved really good, a brief walk from the river and a three-minute walk from the cathedral. The double room included a nice shower and was very spacious. I found the room to be clean. The proximity to key attractions greatly enhanced my stay.

I found the elevator did not align perfectly with each floor, requiring me to carry my suitcase up a few steps.
