Hotel Viktoria

One of the most impressive large villas in Cologne, built as a museum of music history in 1906, today accommodates an innovative private hotel within its walls – the 4-star Hotel Viktoria. Exterior and interior elements form a stylistic unit featuring oriel extensions, marble walls, stucco work and columned alcoves. In appreciation of the building’s musical vita, large-format murals and ceiling frescos were created by Gudula M. C. Büker shortly after the opening in 1990. The Cologne-based artist has transformed the Viktoria into an art hotel that not only displays her oil paintings in the public area, but in the meantime also exhibits original works of art in many rooms. The successful combination of architecture, painting and photography provide the fascinating setting for hotel guests to enjoy “wellness in a monument”. 47 rooms and 3 hotel-apartments, in some cases with a view of the Rhine, in a quiet location. All rooms with bathroom/shower, WC, telephone, Sat-TV, minibar, desk and room safe. Bathrooms with hairdryer and make-up mirror. Rooms partly with air-conditioning.
