Waterfront vacation rentals in Cologne

As before: a super nice hostess; the apartment is tiptop: sparkling clean, very comfortable bed, despite the street it is quiet, the kitchen is very well equipped, and it is totally cozy. I will be happy to come back.

Really nice apartment, description was great and also really well equipped. Would absolutely book again!

If you’re looking for a home away from home, this is the perfect place. Ben and his family are the most thoughtful and welcoming hosts I’ve encountered in Germany. They make sure your needs are met quickly and with care, and you truly feel supported throughout your stay. The space itself is beautifully designed with attention to every detail to ensure maximum comfort. Nestled in a peaceful neighborhood surrounded by natural beauty, it’s the ideal spot to relax and recharge. I left feeling refreshed and grateful — I can’t recommend it enough!

Everything worked smoothly from start to finish, communication was very nice and responses came promptly. The place was great, the location mega! We felt comfortable all around and will come back again!

Compact and bijou property in a peaceful, picturesque setting. Parking is convenient and free but not private.

I had a very nice stay at Tobias' apartment. The apartment was clean and matched the pictures and description. It had everything you needed. Communication was great. Check-in and check-out were straightforward. Definitely recommendable!

This was my 5th or 6th stay in Margaret's apartment. It is ideal for me - the right mix between quiet location and good connection. The apartment is tastefully and functionally furnished, Margarete is very friendly and proactive without being intrusive. I would be happy to come back.

Great place, Silke is super friendly, her recommendations we're excellent. The apartment is nice, with a lot of light, beautiful living room and well equipped kitchen, I always like to buy local stuff and cook myself and it was perfect choice. Highly recommended!!!

The house is spacious and has a really nice layout. Rooms are big, and the bathroom is very comfortable. Perfect for our family of 4 and 2 friends. Some small downsides are the view from the garden, you overlook the valley with some industry and the highway is quite nearby, you can hear it from the garden. But we guess the garden would feel very different in spring and summer when the trees have all their leaves. We had some difficulties with the floor heating, but I'm am sure this will get fixed, since Yewgenija is a super host who went out of her way to answer our questions asap and is very open to suggestions on how to improve the house and the experience of her guests. The area is very nice for daytrips and walks and the Ahr and its small villages are certainly worth the trip, although I would rather recommend a visit outside of winter. Since the big flood of 2021 a lot has been done to rebuild the area and the Ahr-valley residents are very warm and welcoming to tourists!

Beautiful house with breathtaking views over Lake Baldeney. The house has everything you need for a good time in Essen, everything very high quality and even personal, which you can't find in every typical Airbnb. Throughout the house you can enjoy music in the best quality, for example through Spotify. Also, the house has a fully equipped modern kitchen with everything you need and even several fully automatic coffee machines. You can grill in the garden with a weaver or relax in your own house which has a heated hot tub and sauna. The hosts Clemens and Mr. Siegler are very friendly, extremely hospitable and are always easily accessible. No matter what I asked, everything was always done to make you feel comfortable. I could report many more positive things but briefly summarize this review. The only negative: you don't want to leave here. In short, one of the best Airbnb homes with the best hosts at the i

We spent New Year's Eve in the Stranzenburg in a small group. Really a beautiful unique house with charm! Ursula was a great host who even greeted us with a cake. If you have any questions, we were always able to reach out and received a quick response. We were all very comfortable.

We had a lovely stay! The house is comfortable and tastefully decorated, with a nice kitchen for cooking or making a good cup of coffee. The cozy living room invites you to relax – perfect for a book by the fireplace or a movie night. Thanks to the nice weather, we also enjoyed a barbecue in the sunny garden. The surroundings of Kesseling are beautiful and worth exploring. You can also take beautiful walks directly from the house. An ideal base for both a relaxing and active holiday. Finally, Ben is a friendly and helpful host, who responds quickly to questions.

There were five of us in the house. Four spacious rooms for sleeping and a large living-dining area on two levels offered plenty of space to feel comfortable. There was nothing missing, neither in the kitchen nor in the bathrooms. Even spices were available. The pretty garden and terrace invited you to linger. The communication was very good. Always happy 😊

Very nice traditional German house on the Rein's bank. Beautiful location for the nature lovers. Lot of possibilities for walking. House is close the railway but one doesn't hear this inside of the house. Recommended for the nature and history lovers.

Very nice place and modern. Close to everything, especially Dusseldorf. Great kitchen. Large refrigerator. If available I will stay here every time. (Note: There is no Marco, but his father Vittorio. Very kind man)

Farmhouse renovated with great taste and in beautiful surroundings. We loved the grand piano to practice some Fur Elise after visiting Beethoven’s house ;-)

I had an amazing time staying at Michael’s place in Köln, Germany. The design of the flat is outstanding, and the attention to detail is remarkable. Michael was a fantastic host, and for the first time in my experience, I met such a caring host who prepared a fully stocked fridge with drinks, alcohol, and snacks—bravo for that! I felt truly welcomed and it made my stay even more special. Everything was incredibly well-organized, making my experience even more enjoyable. Many people say that where you sleep isn’t important, that they just need a bed. But I disagree - it’s the place where you stay that makes the entire experience special. Michael’s place made my trip extra special - offering convenience, aesthetic pleasure and a truly comfortable environment. I was so impressed that I’m already looking to book for next year! Thank you, Michael! This was a 5-star++ experience!

From the moment we contacted Umit, he was very responsive and helpful. The unit is exactly as pictured in a quiet part of Dusseldorf. Lots of restaurants and shops in walking distance. Light rail is a short walk away which gets you into the city centre.

Friendly host, gives you all the necessary information, offers further information if necessary, inquires if everything is okay, and is at the same time pleasantly reserved (doesn't annoy, but you know if something should be, he takes care of it). Check-in is very easy and attention is paid to details in the furnishing and preparation of the apartment, we enjoyed it very much. The bed was a little short for my relatively large partner, but we could have seen that from the photos beforehand. Location and views are of course super nice. We would book again.

So was a very responsive host. Prior to check in and throughout the stay, so kept in touch to make sure we arrived ok, had what we needed, and answered any questions I had. The space was nice and worked well with our family of 8. The space was extremely clean and well maintained. I appreciated that there was coffee, sugar and creamer in the cabinet. I am not sure that is always there, but it was nice to have it for the morning. Beds were comfortable. We had a very nice stay and would recommend this airbnb.

Dilek is a wonderful host. She was very friendly and responsive to our queries. Her home was very clean, warm and cozy. We stayed there for a week and didn’t had any issue whatsoever. They had very big hall with comfortable sofa. They have very well equipped kitchen with all the necessary things one needs. If we come to Duisberg we will definitely love to stay again.

Everything worked out beautifully! The place is well maintained, very clean and exactly as described. Benjamin was super friendly even before arrival and the warm welcome immediately made up for our turbulent arrival. Clear recommendation – always happy to come back!

We had a great stay! The house is very comfortable and clean and has everything you need!

Jens and his son were very kind and helpful! Definitely recommend their apartment.
