Hotel Berg

Location was good, price reasonable

The gentleman running the front desk during the day seemed to really dislike me. Not sure what the reason was.

I stayed at the hotel Berg during a recent business trip to Cologne . The rooms were cramped , the beds uncomfortable ( mattresses were small blocks of foam that you wouldn't ask a child to sleep on .The staff were unfriendly . They tried to rip us off for use of the wireless internet asking an exorbant €13 per day ( which I refused to pay). In short unless you are badly stuck dont stay here.

Hotel Berg is easy to walk to from the railway station in Koln.

The man in reception was unhelpful, abrupt , uninvolved with the guests and lacking the usual courtesies one expects on arrival. Not a pleasant experience. It was expensive, did not have a lift and the breakfast was in a cramped room, without croissants or toast, The receptionist put a stranger at our table, even though there were other tables unoccupied.

The staff were helpfull and the hotel was very clean. The location was very centeral to the fair grounds.

only problem was that the bathroom was shared, very inconvenient. Would only stay there again if I had a bathroom en suite.
