How to get to Cologne
|
|
Most European
visitors will either take a train to Cologne main
station ("Köln Hauptbahnhof"), Cologne Deutz station ("Köln Messe/Deutz")
or arrive by air at Cologne/Bonn Airport (Code: CGN). Visitors from overseas will usually
fly to Frankfurt/Main Airport (Code: FRA). From Frankfurt, there is an
convenient and fast high speed train connection to Cologne (sometimes called "rail and fly", it takes about 1 hour).
Therefore do not try to change flights in Frankfurt and fly in to Cologne.
If you arrive with Lufthansa or StarAlliance, note that the train connection Frankfurt
Airport <-> Cologne has a Lufthansa flight number.
Düsseldorf airport (code: DUS) is also close to Cologne. At Düsseldorf airport
there is a train station from where there are frequent connections to "Köln Hauptbahnhof".

From Köln Hauptbahnhof
If you arrive at Cologne main station ("Köln Hauptbahnhof"),
then proceed downstairs to the subway station that is located under the main entrance hall
of the train station at the side of the cathedral. From there take a subway
(# 16 or 18, direction to "Neumarkt") and get off at "Neumarkt" (2 stops).
Then walk up the stairs to find the tram station
(take # 1, direction to "Weiden" or # 7, direction to "Frechen").
Get off at the next stop called "Rudolfplatz". The trip costs EUR 2.80
(look for K="Kurzstrecke"=short trip; up to 4 stops in total including stop of origin).
Tickets can be bought from the vending machines
in the stations, at some stops, inside the trams and online.
If you know a bit of the city center, you might prefer to walk directly to Rudolfplatz; this should
take about 15 minutes from the main station. Once you are at "Rudolfplatz"
the hotel is within 1 minute walking distance: cross
Rudolfplatz and turn right at the next corner.
From Köln Messe/Deutz
Many regional or long-distance trains also stop at "Köln Messe/Deutz", from where you can
directly get on tram # 1, direction to "Weiden" or # 7, direction
to "Frechen", without changing at "Neumarkt". Then follow the instructions
from the last paragraph. From "Köln Messe/Deutz" it is too far to walk to the hotel.
From Köln-Bonn Airport
Take a local train or S-Bahn from Köln/Bonn airport to
either "Köln Hauptbahnhof" or "Köln Messe/Deutz" and then follow the instructions above.
You will need a ticket "Preisstufe 1b" which costs EUR 3.80. A taxi will be about EUR 40-50.

Walk to "Rudolfplatz", which is just around the corner from the hotel.
Get on a bus # 136 (to "Hohenlind") or # 146 (to "Deckstein")
and take either line to exit at "Hildegardis-Krankenhaus".
Then turn left into the street called "Weyertal" and after a short walk
you will see the mathematics building on the left side
(street address: Weyertal 86-90, 50931 Köln).
For each of the bus trips a ticket K="Kurzstrecke"=short trip will be required, which costs EUR 2.80.
