I have stayed at the Qvest several times; it’s a beautiful boutique hotel located on a beautiful plaza across from an historic church. Quiet but easy walking and access to transport and key neighborhoods.

Superb Boutique Hotel

Superb boutique hotel within walking distance of the city attractions. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was comfortable if a little too minimalist. Would definitely recommend the Qvest as a place to stay in Cologne.

This is a hidden gem...

This hotel is located in a fantastic spot - very close to everything but in a very quiet square. The building is stunning, and the rooms have a great premium feel to them. Staff were exceptionally good at both reception and the bar. We stayed in a large suite on the ground floor, which was very impressive. There's a great restaurant out on the square, too.

Loved this hotel. In a lovely quiet square next to a beautiful church. Very clean and spacious room and comfy bed. The building was stunning and gave it a special feel. Breakfast was delicious and the staff were very friendly. Cologne is a very walkable city and the hotel is only a ten minute walk from the main train station. We'd stay again.
