| Cologne | Is the city center walkable from the train station? Posted: Sat July 12, 2008 07:18 PM UTC
We'll be off to Cologne in a few days time and I wonder if the city center is walkable from the train station.
Is it practical to buy the "Welcome Card" that costs €9 or just a 24-hour transport card? Also, has anyone already stayed at the Classic Harmonie Hotel at the center of Cologne? Any reviews? Tips for this trip will be appreciated. Thanks. ***bell |

Claus has already said it - the train station is in the heart of town, next to the cathedral, Römisch-Germanisches Museum and Wallraf-Richartz-Museum, and the pedestrian mall. The hotel is, according to Google Maps, 2 blocks from the station, can't be more than 200 m. No need for public transport.
