Sustainability
Welcome!
We are happy to welcome you to Hotel Im Kupferkessel.
We love to help you make exciting encounters, travel consciously, and discover Cologne, regardless of whether your stay is for private or professional reasons.
Sustainability is at the forefront of this, so that traveling can still be possible in the future.
In a world of overconsumption/excess, we consciously focus on the essentials. Our rooms are compact, cozy, and efficiently designed - with the aim of conserving resources without renouncing/sacrificing comfort. Instead of daily towel changes, guest can actively decide if they really need a new towel/them or not.
Sustainability starts with small gestures.
We are delighted to have received the DEHOGA Environmental Check Certificate in Gold this year.
Digital, contactless, resource-efficient
Thanks to our contactless Check-in via access code and digital communication, we are able to avoid unnecessary paperwork and reduce energy consumption. Invoices are available as PDF files and the registration form is filled out online - efficient, safe and environmentally friendly.
Community
Our lounge is a meeting point to work, drink coffee or meet new people. Guests can use the tableware provided to prepare snacks or small dishes, which saves takeaway cups and creates a feeling of home. Additionally we also provide recycle bins for separating waste.
Sustainability, you can feel
We believe that genuine hospitality also means responsibility - towards our guests, our city and our planet.
