<strong>Health</strong>care competence<br />

in the heart of Europe<br />

<strong>Cologne</strong><br />

<strong>Cologne</strong> is truly at the heart of Europe:<br />

the high-speed Thalys train connects<br />

<strong>Cologne</strong> with Brussels in just 2 hours,<br />

Paris or London are only 4 hours away.<br />

And the ICE 3 train brings passengers to<br />

Amsterd<strong>am</strong> in just two hours and forty<br />

minutes. Once in the Rhine Metropolis<br />

itself, guests will find around 250 hotels<br />

of all categories, from inexpensive f<strong>am</strong>ily<br />

businesses through to 5-star superior<br />

luxury hotels, with altogether approx.<br />

26,000 beds. <strong>Cologne</strong> boasts hotels<br />

<strong>am</strong>ong others in the following international<br />

chains: Marriott, Renaissance,<br />

Hyatt, Hilton, Intercontinental, Barcelo,<br />

Radisson SAS and Accor, together with<br />

the German Maritim chain. Since 2008,<br />

the Russian Azimut chain also runs a new<br />

hotel in <strong>Cologne</strong>. The range is rounded<br />

off by the exclusive superior class with<br />

the Excelsior Hotel Ernst and Le Meridien<br />

Dom Hotel. And those who want to<br />

stay for longer will also find ideal accommodation,<br />

for ex<strong>am</strong>ple in the serviced<br />

apartments in the Dom Residenz, right<br />

in the heart of the city. <strong>Cologne</strong>‘s landmark<br />

is the all-dominating Gothic cathedral<br />

with its characteristic towers. It is<br />

Germany‘s Number One tourist attraction<br />

with more than six million visitors<br />

every year, and one of the most fascinating<br />

buildings in the world. The impressive<br />

cathedral holds the golden Shrine<br />

of the Three Kings and many other precious<br />

treasures, some in the cathedral itself,<br />

others in the unique treasury below<br />

the cathedral building. Then there‘s the<br />

unique and similarly significant group of<br />

twelve Romanic churches, each a jewel<br />

of Mediaeval church architecture. To the<br />

south of the cathedral towers, visitors<br />

will find the picturesque Old Town with<br />

its numerous pubs and breweries, the<br />

Rhine garden with the shipping piers,<br />

the Historic Town Hall, the Praetorium<br />

(the Roman governor‘s palace), the Mikwah<br />

(Jewish ritual bath) and the Gürzenich<br />

(historical city festival hall).<br />
