The Hilton in Bonn, Germany
Quite a contrast to the Renaissance Hotel in Cologne, where I stayed yesterday, is todays stay at the Hilton in Bonn, Germany’s former capitol village. The run-down place confirmed experiences with previous hotel of the same chain. While my room was nicely renovated, the communal areas of the hotel made me feel like in a eastern European hotel during cold-war times. The location next to one of the ugliest bridges in the world – the Kennedy bridge – ruins the only potential plus of this hotel of being directly located at the river. My mood dropped even further when I discovered that the hotel does not offer (I would have payed for it) decent newspapers for breakfast – only one crappy stock-market publication they get for free. As a plus I should mention that I was allowed a late check-out without any problems and most of the staff was friendly.
