A converted 19th century monastery in central Cologne, the Hopper Hotel Et Cetera is 700 metres from the main shopping area and three kilometres from the old town.

Eucalyptus parquet flooring and cherry wood furniture complement the 49 guestrooms' crisp furnishings and original modern art. All rooms include fax and Internet connections, satellite television, minibars, safes and soundproofed windows, and feature marble bathrooms.

The restaurant is situated in the former chapel which is dominated by a ceiling high oil painting reproduction of the apse. International dishes are available for breakfast, lunch and dinner and in summer food can be enjoyed outside on the leafy courtyard patio. Guests can visit the vaulted cellar of the former cloister, where the health club offers a Finnish hemlock sauna, solarium and fitness equipment.

The hotel also boasts its own art collection, including original works by the likes of Carolyn Sheehan and Alexander Tschechovskoy; these can be found throughout the hotel and in guestrooms. Complimentary high speed Internet connections are installed in public areas, and the lobby has a television and free newspapers.

Only 700 metres from the shopping and restaurants of Einkaufsstrassen, the hotel is two kilometres from the Opera House, and three kilometres from both the Cathedral and the Cologne Fairground.

Cologne Bonn Konrad Airport is 18 kilometres away with an approximate driving time of 25 minutes.
