Your stay in a B&B Cologne
Cologne, the fourth-largest city in Germany, is famous for its iconic Cologne Cathedral, warm-hearted locals, Kölsch beer, and the beautiful Rhine River. Staying at a B&B Cologne is especially charming during the pre-Christmas season with its twinkling festive markets and lively Carnival revelry.
Rhenish Specialties and Unique Features
The world-famous Cologne Water, produced in Cologne for over two hundred years, is as much a part of Cologne as the popular Kölsch beer, the Kölsch dialect, and the Rhine River. The right bank of the Rhine in Deutz, formerly called the "wrong side," has become a hotspot for many locals with a fabulous view of the Old Town. Try local delicacies during your stay in Cologne like "Halver Hahn" or "Kölscher Kaviar," but be cautious – it might turn out to be something different on your plate than you had expected!
Best Time to Visit Cologne
Depending on the season and your interests, there's always a good reason to visit Cologne. In spring, the street carnival attracts millions of visitors to the Old Town. During the warm months, the banks of the Rhine offer a beautiful setting to enjoy the outdoors, and in the pre-Christmas season, the many traditional and alternative Christmas markets attract hoards of visitors from all over the world.
