It formerly housed the tallest water tower in Europe (a 19th century building) and is after its complete modernization at a cost of $75 million is "one of the most avant-garde and daring reincarnations of an existing structure in all of Germany". It is a centrally located 11-story hotel in the southwest part of the city center and just a mile from the Cathedral, that is worth being checked into. Everything in it is contemporary. Its "design and decor are ingenious". The lobby is tiled with "stunning dark woodwork". Warhol paintings can be admired as well. Modern facilities such as sauna, massage, solarium, 24-hour room service, babysitting, laundry service and dry cleaning are at the guests disposal. The hotel has restaurant, bar, nonsmoking rooms. The "spacious" rooms have an original appearance "unusual configuration" plus decoration like "original art and exquisite carpeting". Each of the rooms are "cleverly designed for comfort, flair, and convenience", containing amenities such as A/C, TV, data port, minibar, hair dryer and safe. Also the "tiled in mosaics" bathrooms are "deluxe". They welcome the visitor with "extras" such as "triptych mirrors, robes, and deep tubs with power showers".

<description><![CDATA[Andree Putman was the world's "most sought-after designer" in the 1980s and the Wasserturm (water tower) was a "dream job" for her. The tower was round - "her favourite shape"  and of "extraordinary proportions". The consortium responsible for the conversion of the tower took a "typically German long-term view" and approved "quality" with every aspect carefully considered for its "aesthetic detail". The hotel was completed in 1990 and is "one of the most original and refined" hotels in Europe.  Unusually the best rooms are not the most expensive. The author likes the"studio rooms" on the sixth floor best which visitors reach through a "high-tech steel bridge suspended ..(inside) the core of the...structure". The rooms have "impossibly high" ceilings and "pristine" white tiled floors. The walls are "round", the windows "tall and elegant" and the furniture is "timeless". A visitor with an eye for design could "lose themselves for hours" just checking out the "extraordinary attention to detail".
During the summer the tower is "one of Cologne's most popular" restaurants. The restaurant is on the roof and is "glass enclosed" with a "panoramic vista" of the city. In the restaurant the minimalism of the hotel is abandoned in favour of a "style..typical (of a) bourgeois Parisian restaurant".]]></description>
