Wasserturm Hotel Cologne, Curio Collection by Hilton

Wasserturm Hotel Cologne (translation: Hotel in Water Tower) is a great choice for those who like something a bit different. This boutique hotel is built into a converted 19th-century water tower in the Old Town, giving the whole property a historic and unique feel. Rooms range from Singles to a charming two-level maisonette room, and are all spacious and bright. The Premium and Maisonette rooms are especially airy due to their high ceilings and large windows. The restaurant and lounge on the top floor offers panoramic 360° views of the city and an outdoor terrace - this is a great spot for an evening cocktail. Hotel Im Wasserturm is located between both gayborhoods, about a 15-minute walk from either.
