COLOGNE has a new hotel, the 228-room Cologne Marriott, located in the Johannisstrasse complex steps away from the historic cathedral in the centre of the city.
It is not another purpose-built block but the result of some painstaking restoration work on the former municipal building by a team of architects from Lange & Luerhmann.
Famed interior designer Keith Wright chose warm colours and modern forms to complement key elements of the interior of the property.
All guest rooms feature the new Marriott Revive beds complete with luxurious sheets and a white custom duvet.
Other in-room amenities include a large work desk, dual telephone lines with speaker and voicemail, high-speed internet access, cable/satellite television and complimentary in-room coffee.
