Events: 8 combinable function rooms
Wellness: Tapps Spa with sauna
“The Wasserturm's transformation from a 19th-century water tower makes it a striking landmark, further enhanced by a rooftop bar with panoramic city views; its architectural uniqueness comes with a caveat. While the hotel aims for luxury with well-appointed rooms and event facilities, noise intrusion can be an issue despite claims of soundproofing. I believe the hotel's charm lies more in its distinctive character and location near Cologne's attractions than in guaranteed tranquility.”
