High-octane motor-themed stay in Cologne

• Designer digs: Named after the engine that petrolheads regard as one of the finest engineering achievements since the wheel, V8 Hotel Köln at MOTORWORLD is a motorist’s Mecca, where every corner, crack and crevice is dedicated to one thing: the car. From diagrams of engines on the ceilings and beautiful artwork, to coffee tables made from Formula1 tyres and beds constructed from the bodies of classic cars, not to mention a whole fleet of beautiful bangers on display, this is a place where automobile-lovers will feel right at home.
  
  
• Four-wheeled fun: The hotel is directly connected to MOTORWORLD Köln, where exhibitions and experiences promise to thrill the motoring aficionado more than maxing out on the Autobahn. A highlight for F1 fans in particular has to be Michael Schumacher’s permanent exhibition, where you can find an extensive private collection of cars that include his childhood karts, exclusive memorabilia, trophies, and of course some of the F1 cars he won his record number of World Championships in.
  
  
• Tasty pit stops: Fuel up for the day at the hotel’s breakfast circuit, where all the usual favourites are present and correct, and if you get peckish later on then take a pit stop or two at the hotel’s extra-long lobby bar, where tasty snacks and a great variety of drinks are the name of the game. You can also take full advantage of MOTORWORLD’s culinary offering with spots like Moto Foodgarage, Ahoi Steffen Henssler and Abaccos Steakhouse, all just a short walk away.
