Kolping Tagungshotel

Münster, Germany

Münster's Altstadt, or old town, has only a small number of hotels, mostly in the lower-priced categories. One centrally-located hotel that deserves attention is the Kolping Tagungshotel, which has a three-star superior rating and offers modern comforts in a location that's handy to sightseeing and shopping.

Don't be put off by the hotel's boxy, angular façade: Inside, the Kolping Tagungshotel is an attractive, comfortable hotel in a style that might best be described as "Teutonic modern." And while the hotel caters heavily to business travelers, it's popular with leisure guests--especially on weekends, when special packages are available.

The Kolping Tagungshotel's 107 rooms come in three price ranges, with beds for one, two, or up to four guests. A restaurant and bar are on the premises, and there's even a chapel under the roof.

Interesting side note: The hotel is co-owned by the local Catholic diocese and Kolping, an international charitable organization named after Adolph Kolping, a priest who organized housing and other services for young journeymen in the 1800s. Like other Kolping hotels in Germany, the Kolping Tagungshotel continues to offer free overnight stays to Wandergesellen (itinerant journeymen) when rooms are available.
