We do a Cologne trip every year during X-mass period.
We traveld to Coogne on a Mercedes vito bus, brand new.
So we took an option for a hotel with a safe parking. Begardenhof was the right hotel on the right place.
It is a very clean (it's new) hotel.
Easy acces from the highway.
It is located immediately besides the railway station.
This brings you cheap in the Cologne town center in about 15 minutes.
You have to pay for parking but on the other side of the street there is an unguarded, but safe parking lot.
As it is a quiet town, it is also safe to park your car here.
Rooms were perfect, clean, modern style, quiet.
Restaurant give a standard buffet.
For dinner, prices were very atractive and they serve a good meal.
No great quisine, but you don't eat 3-star menu at home do you?
After all, we certainly go back to the Begardenhof.
In fact: is is a very good choice.
