Quick question for the Cologne regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?
I was there in 2024 and had a great time but I've heard new venues have opened.
Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?
Cheers

I was there in February and prices were great value.
Spent about $106/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: avoid weekends.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the pandemic. Current prices are higher than what's described here.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

I was there in February and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $107/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: midweek is golden hour.

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the new laws came in. Current prices are about the same than what's described here.
