Hotel TheGreen Overview

First Impressions

Hotel TheGreen sits quietly in Widdersdorf, and honestly, that’s exactly what makes it work so well. This three-star property doesn’t try to be something it’s not — instead, it focuses on getting the basics absolutely right. The moment you pull up, you’ll notice the parking situation is sorted (which, if you’ve ever driven around Cologne, you know is half the battle won already). The building itself has this understated charm that grows on you, especially when you realize how peaceful everything feels despite being well-connected to the city center.

Location That Actually Works

Widdersdorf might not be the first neighborhood that comes to mind when you think of Cologne, but that’s actually its secret weapon. You’re far enough out to escape the tourist crowds and city noise, yet close enough that getting into the main areas doesn’t require planning your entire day around transport. I mean, couples seem to have figured this out — the feedback consistently shows they rate this spot highly for romantic getaways. There’s something to be said for having a quiet base where you can actually relax between exploring the cathedral, the museums, or just wandering along the Rhine.

The Room Experience

Here’s where Hotel TheGreen really shines — the beds are genuinely comfortable, and I’m not just saying that. Recent guests keep mentioning the sleep quality, which tells you everything you need to know about their mattresses and pillows. The room setup is straightforward but thoughtful, with enough space to spread out your things without feeling cramped. You know what I appreciated? The attention to little details that help you settle in quickly, whether you’re staying one night or several.

Morning Fuel

The breakfast buffet here does exactly what it should — gives you options without overwhelming you, and actually tastes good. They’ve got the German breakfast staples covered, plus enough variety that you won’t get bored if you’re staying multiple nights. The restaurant area has this relaxed morning vibe where you can take your time over coffee and plan your day without feeling rushed. It’s the kind of setup that makes you want to get up a bit earlier just to enjoy the slower pace.

Why Guests Love It

The repeat guest rate here tells the real story — people come back because Hotel TheGreen delivers on its promises consistently. It’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but it nails the fundamentals that actually matter when you’re traveling. The staff seems to understand that sometimes the best service is the kind you barely notice because everything just works smoothly. Whether you’re in Cologne for business, exploring the city as a couple, or just need a reliable place to rest between adventures, this place gets it right without any unnecessary fuss.

Reviews of Hotel TheGreen

  • The hotel was nice and clean – Shamima from Netherlands – June 10, 2025 (8/10)

    Nice place. Better than expected

    What could be improved: No coffee in the room?
    Staff was pretty average when it came to check in. Although the bar staff was nice and friendly.

  • Pleasurable – Malcolm from United Kingdom – September 27, 2024 (8/10)

    Nice and clean. Very friendly staff. Nice food and lovely area.

    What could be improved: On the Saturday morning there must have been a competition on. Our room was above the entrance to the hotel and we were woken up just after 6am by the competitors waiting to play. They were all milling around, talking really loudly. Was not a nice wake up call.

  • Wonderful – Ellen from Belgium – August 29, 2024 (9/10)

    Very clean, staff very polite and helpful.
    The vegan breakfast (upon request) was simply incredible and worth the price.

    What could be improved: There was no lift when you come in late at night as there is a separate entrance after desk hours (or we couldn’t find it).

  • Very Good – Skerik from Canada – August 11, 2024 (8/10)

    Just needed a place to stay on family road trip. Price was fair for two rooms.

  • Would recommend this to others, especially the golf – Stuart from United Kingdom – June 24, 2024 (8/10)

    The staff were excellent, especially Jeni on reception who could not have been more helpful

    What could be improved: Nothing at all, it was lovely

  • A very pleasant stay convenient for visiting Cologne. – Euan from United Kingdom – June 24, 2024 (8/10)

    Clean rooms, comfortable bed.
    Excellent breakfast buffet with good choice and freshly cooked eggs. The view over the golf course is very nice. Staff were all friendly and efficient.

    What could be improved: There were no hot drink making facilities in the room. I would recommend this to be added to the room.

  • Wonderful – Shelly from United Kingdom – June 23, 2024 (9/10)

    The facilities were excellent, nice clean and modern. I would like to say that the lady who did the breakfasts every day was superb. She appeared to be doing it all on her own, did very well with those of us with little German. She is an asset to the hotel and should be rewarded for her good work.

    What could be improved: It was a bit of a trek to get into Coligne, car required or lots of Ubers

  • Very Good – Thomas from Netherlands – June 7, 2024 (8/10)

    Nice quiet location

    What could be improved: The hotel sent an e-mail that I had to check in before 21:30 or pay an additional fee.

  • Good hotel – Diogo from Belgium – February 11, 2024 (8/10)

    The hotel has new facilities and the view is over a golf course. It is very quiet and a pleasant stay. It has its own parking and has breakfast, without a restaurant option (you can order it from a nearby restaurant for delivery). The room had a minibar, excellent shower and a good bed. It is far from tourist attractions and easily accessible from the road. The staff is very friendly.

    What could be improved: The breakfast left something to be desired, as it doesn't have a very large structure so some things that ran out were not replenished (that was the answer they gave us). I missed fruit (bananas, oranges, etc…). Unfortunately, I forgot my daughter's glass in her room and was unable to get advice for it to be sent to me, even though I paid the costs. I didn't think there was a good relationship with the customer after the stay.

  • Nice, but not for a family dinner – Muriel from Netherlands – January 3, 2024 (8/10)

    Nice and tidy

    What could be improved: No kids meals in the restaurant
