I have been here lots of times to watch Hollywood movie. I guess this cinema is one of the few…read morecinema that does not dub their movies to German. Yes it is original. No offense but watching movie in its initial language is much much more better than watching it when dubbed to another language. The cinema is quite small, with only 3 theater. 1 being the biggest theater and the other two is quite small, fit for movies that are regular. The entrance is small, with 3 cashier to sell the tickets and snacks & beverages. Although the appearance of the bar is very unconvincing, the snacks tastes good and they are sold for a very affordable price. Ticket price is cheaper compared to other cinemas around town. On thursday especially, they have 4€ entrance for students. Cheap, but you will be crushed and squeezed by people when the movies previewed are long waited by public! Lol And one last thing that i dislike about the theater, it is very unorganized with the seating. There are no seat numbers so you have to race to get the best view seating- which relates to my statement above. :( Despite my dislike being pushed, shoved, and squeezed in the crowd, this is my only choice to watch international film with its original language that fits my budget plans. I really do hope they renew their policy and arrangements to make a better experience for us, customers.

Metropolis is almost the only theater where they play movies in their original version in Köln…read more Totally old fashion looking, with 2 rooms on the smaller size, Metropolis is very charismatic. But no worries, the technique is totally ok, good picture and sound quality! The best part I find is that on top of the typical sodas, ice cream, popcorn offering they also serve beer that can be taken inside. A nice Kölsch and a good movie, what else? They also of course play German movies and quite a few children movies. The location is perfect lots of restaurants cafe etc. for a bite to eat or a drink before or after and a subway stop right next door. By far my favorite movie theater in Köln

This is not a shocking way to start my review: cologne was invented (kind of) in Cologne. During my…read morevisit to this awesome German city, I had a group tour at the Duftmuseum im Farina-Haus. Listed as one of Cologne's top attractions on TripAdvisor, make sure to sign up for a tour online ahead of time. If you don't, you will likely be out of luck. The group tour itself (20 or so people) lasts about an hour. And it was phenomenal! Our tour guide was a great speaker and shared so much with us. It was very informative and I learned a ton about the history of colognes and perfumes, along with the company that owns the museum. Beyond the history lesson, you'll get to smell different scents and try and guess what they are. The tour ends with a small bottle of cologne (unisex) that you can take home. It's the same scent they've been producing for hundreds of years. Cologne has a lot of great museums. Duftmuseum im Farina-Has is a must-visit. You'll even learn a fun fact or two about Napoleon.

Interesting to see Roman ruins underneath a German city, but since Cologne was a provincial…read morecapital, there they are! This is an underground excavation of the governor's residence, and if you're a fan of ancient history then it's worth the €3,50. For that matter, even if you're not a huge history fan, it's a unique feature of Cologne and probably worth it. There is only one small room of displays, and they are almost all in German, but they appear to be quite professionally done. There is also a stretch of Roman sewer tunnel you can walk though; while interesting there aren't any displays or anything in it, it's just a long hallway. The ruins themselves are in a huge room with a walkway running around and through it. The signs in this area are in both German and English. Not someplace you should expect to spend hours, but if you like this stuff you should probably upgrade to the €10 ticket that includes admission to the Romisch Germanische Museum (next to the cathedral) that has a lot more displays.

The praetorium was the residencs of the roman proconsul in Köln (…read moreCOLONIA CLAVDIA ARA AGRIPPINENSIVM). It was the military and civil administration department of the roman province "Niedergermanien". Today you can look at the ruins that are located under a house in the " Kleine Budengasse". Probably that is only interesting for people who are interested in roman history and/or archaeology. I think all other people can save the EUR 2,50 for the entry...

Eigentlich eine schöne Location. Aber das Personal (im Security Bereich) geht gar nicht. Nach dem…read moreKonzert wurden wir direkt nachdem die Band von der Bühne war mit einem Wellenbrecher Gitter nach draußen gedrückt und angeschrien, dass wir raus gehen sollen. Wir konnten noch nicht mal unsere Sachen (Fahnen, Pullover, leere Getränkeflaschen usw.) vernünftig packen oder das Abschlusslied, welches von Platte gespielt wird und (zumindest gefühlt und inoffiziell) fester Bestandteil des Tourprogramms ist, genießen. Jugendliche/Kinder sind hier gar nicht willkommen. Unter 12 Jahren kommt man nur mit Kapselgehörschutz rein. Vernünftige Kinder-ohropax, die bestimmt besser dicht sind als zu große andere Ohrschützer, werden nicht akzeptiert und man muss trotz Ticket draußen bleiben oder wenn man Glück hat noch irgendwo neue (billige, die dann gar nichts taugen) aus dem Baumarkt kaufen. Ist angeblich gesetzlich so, dann haben sich die anderen 30 Clubs in den letzten zwei Jahren wohl nicht an die Gesetze gehalten?! Waren noch viele andere Probleme mit den Türstehern/Security Personal. Sowas schlechtes und unprofessionelles habe ich noch nie erlebt. Schade, so macht man einen ansonsten schönen Club kaputt.

Cool place, different events, all kinds of music, nice concerts…read more Very alike to Sonic Ballroom just bigger, and mixed. It's not very well located, i mean for what people in Cologne are used to, a bit far, "wrong side" of the Rhine, etc. But it's really cool, looks like an old warehouse made to a club. Really underground from the way it's done, somehow a Berlin-style club. If you are into alternative not mainstream stuff full of college kids, this is the place to go.

The Astor cinema is my new favorite cinema in town. From the moment you walk in the door, right up…read moreto heading back out, you are treated as a welcomed guest. After getting your tickets you are offered a free glass of Sekt or orange juice while waiting for your film to commerce. At this time you also have the possibility to check your coat in - free of charge. The leather arm chairs, which you can lean back in, and a slat comes out for your feet, were wonderfully comfortable. There is so much space to the lounge in front that you can completely stretch out without coming close to reaching it. After taking your seat a waiter comes around to take your order (a menu awaits you next to your arm chair). There is a full selection of light meals, drinks and snacks on the menu. We both ordered a beer and a Mediterranean plate (ham, salami, cheese and a warm bread roll). Very fresh and yummy. The movie we watched was in 3D, so we received 3D glasses when entering the cinema. The glasses were high quality, battery operated glasses. Excellent! All technical equipment is brand-new. The sound and picture quality was top-notch. Such 'luxury' does come at a price. In comparison to other cinemas you'll need to pay an extra 3-4 € per person. Calculate in the free welcome drink & free cloakroom and the extra cost per person will decrease. The only slightly down side is that there are 'only' 3 cinemas. So the total number of movies being shown at any one time is limited. I am a fan of this cinema. If the movie I want to watch is not screening there, I would happily wait until it is. I couldn't see myself willing going back to the 'regular' cinemas in town.
