    (Translated by Google) My friends and I were expelled from the club because of a strange dispute, even though we were not involved in the area. The bouncers were stubborn and extremely aggressive to our explanation. 28 € for nothing! Never again!!! Edit: As noted below, I described the incident in detail and sent it to the e-mail address. There was never an answer. So just an empty promise ... (Original) Meine Freunde und ich wurden wegen einer fremden Auseinandersetzung aus dem Club verwiesen, obwohl wir nur unbeteiligt in der Nähe standen. Die Türsteher reagierten stur und äußerst aggressiv auf unsere Erklärung. 28€ für nichts! Nie wieder!!! Edit: Habe wie unten angemerkt den Vorfall ausführlich geschildert und an die E-Mail Adresse geschickt. Es kam nie eine Antwort. Also nur ein leeres Versprechen...

    (Translated by Google) Join the hymns of praise. Club great, DJs varied and top, staff from B (bar) to S (security) professional and friendly. BUT :: Were on Saturday at FJAAK & Co. Welcome to the smoking club! On both floors there was a lot of smoking, some of the DJs set a "good" example. Dear boathouse - that's a REASON. Why isn't that better controlled? We were very disappointed and annoyed. Clothes went to the laundry today. (Original) Stimme in die Lobeshymnen ein. Club super, DJs variantenreich und topp, Personal von B ( Bar ) bis S ( Security ) professionell und freundlich. ABER:: Waren am Samstag bei FJAAK & Co. Welcome to the Raucher-Club! Auf beiden Floors wurde gequalmt, was das Zeug hielt, ein Teil der DJs ging mit "gutem" Beispiel voran. Liebes Bootshaus - das ist eine ZUMUTUNG. Wieso wird das nicht besser kontrolliert? Wir waren sehr enttäuscht und genervt. Klamotten gingen heute in die Reinigung.

    This is the best Club in the whole world. I have been to over 100 nightclubs around the globe but the energy and vibe at this venue is unbelievable. You have to experience it to believe it. If you’re in town this is definitely a bucket list spot that you have to witness.

    Sound system is amazing. I understand that not everybody likes too deep basses and loud music, for me as techno and electronic music lover, it is very important and in this club I just simple love it.

    Seit etwa 10 Jahren bin ich regelmäßiger Gast im Bootshaus und habe zahlreiche Veranstaltungen besucht. Bedauerlicherweise hat die Qualität der Pandemie nachgelassen. Sowohl die Veranstaltungen, als auch das Publikum, zeigen einen spürbaren Rückgang. Es scheint, dass die Events/Künstler eingebüßt haben, vermutlich aufgrund steigender Gagen der Artists. Vor allem das Publikum ist auffallend anders geworden und erinnert eher an Touristen am Ballermann als an passionierte Raver. Es gibt vermehrt Vorfälle von übermäßigem Alkoholkonsum, Schlägereien und unangemessenem Verhalten. Sogar bei Techno Events finden sich mittlerweile Moshpits und Gegröle. Das scheinen auch viele Kölner gemerkt zu haben. Mittlerweile wimmelt es im Club von Touristen - Locals suchen sich andere Clubs. Es scheint, dass das Bootshaus nun eine neue Klientel anspricht. Mit Alkohol macht man eben mehr Umsatz, als mit Wasser..

    I was here for an Unreal party. Techno was super hard but the sound remained crystal clear the entire time. Well ventilated so it never got too hot inside even though it was packed.

    (Translated by Google) The club was good, but we were misunderstood and couldn't go in for the 20 minutes. The secruity men are very impolite and slightly aggressive and nobody listens. My girlfriend did not come in and the 10 euros were free I could only celebrate 2 hours. we also had to wait incredibly long for the cloakrooms everyone pushed and jostled. Sorry but my 10/20 euros were not worth it. (Original) Der club war ansicht gut, aber wir wurden missverstanden und könnten für die 20 min nicht rein. Die secruity männer sind sehr unhöfflich und leicht aggressiv und keiner hört zu. Meine Freundin kam nicht rein und die 10 euro waren umsonst auch ich könnte nur 2 std feiern. bei den gardaroben mussten wir auch unglaublich lange warten jeder hat geschubst und gedrängelt. Sorry aber dafür haben sich meine 10/20 euro nicht gelohnt.

    The best nightclub in Cologne with the top Djs from all over the world. Never disappointed me once. I have already been there 4 times. Staff is mostly friendly and nice. Would recommend to anyone.

    They host great and big events. Its perfect for underground raves and the location is alright. I enjoyed the event, but i would prefer bigger second and third stages as they can get very crowded easily and it is hard to move. The sound quality is okay so is the light system. Mostly i liked the space outside the club where u could drink and smoke listening to the music faded in the background

    First time I've been clubbing in years and I must say this was one of the best I've ever been to in all my travels. Incredible sound, lighting, atmosphere and amenities. Door girls, coatroom, security, bathroom attendants, bar staff and food attendants were all incredibly timely, accommodating and professional. I was a bit skeptical as to why a club in Cologne has been voted one of the best in the world many times but I now see it is for a very good reason. Keep smashing out the good work guys! Thank you!!

    Nice location, excellent sound system, and great DJs. Stuff is extremely unfriendly and rough, the cloakroom had a 30 min wait, they won’t give you a wristband or stamp to come back in, so if you forgot something in your car, you can’t get it. People seem to go to Bootshaus as a tourist attraction (we went to a party with dress code and most people showed up in streetwear anyways). Lots of hetero vibes and toxic males with very few other queer people. Super high tickets and drink prices are unjustified for what you get.

    Atmosphere, speaker sound system and quality is top! What strikes me is that no card payments are allowed at all, funny in a country that’s among the more modern in the world with card payments. I’ve been to countless clubs where card payments with contactless pay work so much better and efficient. I would not come back just for this, I mean I might as well go to any modern club in the Netherlands or Belgium and pay with conveniently with contactless payment without the need to deal with cash.

  • 2/5 Kévin M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great club BUT... No card payment is possible there! Seriously guys, and putting a atm does not make any sense to solve that, cash sucks... this is quite ridiculous for such big club (rated among the best in world) which did not learn of corona pandemic about the "no contact" payment

    Wir hatten uns für das Album Reveal von Dr. Peacock Tickets gekauft und dachten es würde sich Lohnen, über 500km zum Bootshaus zu fahren. Aber dem war leider nicht so... Ich weiss nicht, ob die Anlage für den Sound immer so eingestellt ist, aber wenn ja, empfehle ich das schnellstens zu ändern, alles war viel zu Basslastig und hat übersteuert, weswegen ich und meine Freundin uns bereits um 02:30 entschieden haben zu gehen. Viel positives vom Bootshaus gehört aber dieser erste Eindruck war echt mies

    Sehr geiler Club in Köln! Es gab ausreichend Parkmöglichkeiten. Wie die Anbindung mit den öffentlichen ist, kann ich nicht beurteilen. Es gibt einen schönen Außenbereich mit einer Bar und vielen Sitzmöglichkeiten. Die Preise der Getränke ist mehr als Fair, um es klar zu sagen sehr günstig (glaube Bier um die 3,50€ bis 4,00€). Anlage war mega und die Stimmung übertrieben gut. War bei Harris & Ford. Im Großen und Ganzen war es sehr gut!

    As someone who has never been to a techno rave before I can wholeheartedly say that the Bootshaus was an incredible experience. The atmosphere, the energy, the crowd - it almost felt like a movie set. Blade's Blood Rave immediately springs to mind. Sound system was crisp, crowd friendly, bars fast - which is not a given in a full venue with multiple areas.

    THIS IS A GREAT VENUE, have no fear, bootshaus is here 👌 Came here for the Madness pres. Headhunterz event and wow am I happy now. Security looks hard as nails, but they are as helpful as ever, hopefully this applies to all, and not just the ones I spoke to. They're quick to register if you're not a regular and help you accordingly, and this really makes a difference. This was truly a great experience. My first hardstyle event ever, due to anxiety, and I did not have any issues at all. This place did not disappoint. Sold out, but still room enough to get around. Several bars, so almost no waiting for drinks. Everything is set up perfectly for you to have a perfect night. If you're into this genre of music, this is where it's at 💪

    Fantastic club, 3 areas which opened in phases as the club filled up. Toilets next to each room were good even good for the ladies. Food and drink available at reasonable prices 'for clubs' queues were ok. Can pay with card or cash. Lockers and coat hanging service available cash only, there is an ATM in the club. Got very busy on the main floor for headliner James Hype, get a spot very early ;) Loads of taxis outside at 5am to take you back to the town centre or airport etc. On meter so you won't get hustled (43 Euro to Koln/Bonn Airport) Overall massive recommendation 👌 Thanks Bootshaus 😊

    This was simply amazing! Outdoor area for if the music got too loud. Bars on every side. Doors open for extra air, to cool you. Would highly recommend the place. It's a decent walk on foot but you can go through the park nearby.

    (Translated by Google) Experience on many blacklists and summer party 19: Bouncer: work quickly and friendly, no problem getting drunk, maximum 10min queue, usually 5 As a popular club, always very full, international lineups. The mood of the crowd is amazing, unique. Large outdoor area for breaks, including a small grill booth for hunger at 5 o'clock ... it couldn't be better! As a bonus: actually world-class sound system installed & fire & CO2 effects. Conclusion: If you want to party and rave for the music, go to the boathouse. Even awesome community! (Original) Erfahrung zu vielen Blacklist und Sommerfest 19: Türsteher: arbeiten schnell und freundlich, kein Problem, angetrunken reinzukommen, maximal 10min Schlange, normalerweise 5 Da beliebter Club, immer sehr voll, internationale Lineups. Stimmung der Crowd ist der Wahnsinn, einzigartig. Großer Außenbereich für Pausen inklusive kleiner Grillbude für den Hunger um 5 Uhr... besser geht nicht! Als Bonus: Tatsächlich weltklasse Soundanlage verbaut & Feuer & CO2-Effekte. Fazit: Wer für die Musik feiern und raven will, der geht ins Bootshaus. Sogar geile Community!

    (Translated by Google) The best club in Germany. From EDM to “more violent” music, everything is included. Always great events with really worth seeing line-ups. Sound and light show always a dream. Drink prices are normal, but more than appropriate for the location! The courtyard makes it possible to take a quick breath. I always feel very comfortable there. (Original) Der beste Club Deutschlands. Von EDM bis zu „heftigerer“ Musik ist alles dabei. Immer super Veranstaltungen mit echt sehenswerten Line-Ups. Sound und Lichtshow immer ein Traum. Getränkepreise sind normal, aber für die Location mehr als angemessen! Der Innenhof macht kurzes Luftschnappen möglich. Fühle mich dort immer sehr wohl.

    One of the best places for a good Party in Germany! But the security is almost every time kinda agressive . And if you plan to drink something bring enough money with you because the drinks are kinda expensive. Or withdraw some Money from their own ATM inside the Club! Never had an issue with the wardrobe. And the floors are just insane. Very good light effects and boxes.

  • 2/5 lia m. 1 year ago on Google
    I personally find it overrated. The DJ’s play their own songs which no one’s knows & there’s some old sweaty tall man (perhaps hired) who kept pushing people out so there’s a hole on the dance floor to jump in once the beat drops, but this happens the WHOLE night and I got pushed down and jumped on but people helped and got me out, but there was no staff paying attention to help or stop the chaos. You don’t dance in this club, you just jump and push. 9€ for a a basic drink is overpriced.

    Ich war zum Classic Rave Festival dort. Es war mega Stimmung und DJ Quicksilver war auch da. Karte lag bei 40 Euro, war es mir aber wert und werde ich sicher noch mal machen. An der Bar muss man nicht lange warten, bei den Preisen auch kein Wunder (Cola 0,3 für 5 Euro). Tipp: Vorglühen! Pommes u.ä. gibt's auch, wenn man etwas Hunger bekommt. Im Sommer muss das auch super sein, weil die draußen auch einen Bereich haben, wo man tanzen kann (rotes Foto). Werde ich testen. Ich komme gerne wieder.

    Came here on Friday 20th October to see Phaxe and Neelix (I wish Morten Granau would've been there as well). Great venue with lots of space to accommodate many dancing people. There's different elevation all around the mainstage giving you good views of the dj and lightshows. There was no messing around regarding entry to the club, if you meet the clearly stated requirements you get in which was a nice difference compared to Berlin. Glad I could make it here and now sad that it'll be years before I can return to Europe from NZ to experience a place like this again! Don't miss out if you're in the area

    Einer der besten Clubs, wenn nicht der beste Club, für elektronische Musik in Deutschland. Die Künstler sind auf höchstem internationalen Niveau und das jedes Wochenende. Die Ausstattung ist super, von Soundanlage über Effekte über Außenbereich über Verpflegungsangebot (Bude und Automat).... Das beste ist jedoch jedes mal die Crowd. Das sind in der regel Leute die von überall her kommen oft auch einige Stunden fahrt in kauf nehmen mit nur einem Ziel: Raven und richtig auszurasten. Das merkt man, die Stimmung ist nirgendwo so gut. Oft nicht einmal auf Festivals für entsprechende Musik. Die negativen Bewertungen kann ich nicht nachvollziehen. Vermutlich stammen diese von Leuten die normal in Köln feiern gehen wollten und nur irgendeinen Club gesucht haben. Man sollte in das Bootshaus tatsächlich wegen der Musik und der Stimmung. Wer damit nichts anfangen kann ist fehl am Platz.

    (Translated by Google) This is not an easy club. That is THE club for electronic music in Germany. 2020 ranked 6th in the world rankings in DJ Mag magazine. Unique light and special effect installations, Star Djs that hardly play in clubs anymore. But the best thing is the vibe. Nobody is let in because of their clothing style, everyone is there to celebrate and not to drink. The crowd is raging here, as the saying goes. (Original) Das ist kein einfacher Club. Das ist DER Club für elektronische Musik in Deutschland. 2020 auf Platz 6 der Weltrangliste gewählt im DJ Mag Magazin.

Niemand wird aufgrund seines Kleidungsstils nicht reingelassen, alle sind zum feiern da und nicht zum Saufen. Hier tobt die Menge wie man so schön sprichwörtlich sagt.

Völlig überfüllt im Vergleich zu anderen Clubs. Zudem ist es sehr sehr heiß im Innenbereichen c.a. 60 Grad, dass ist bei der Konkurrenz nicht der Fall. An der Theke steht man locker mal eine Stunde an auch das ist leider nicht normal. Sicherheitskräfte sind unhöflich und nicht gerade aufmerksam.

    (Translated by Google) Arrived after 7 hours of arrival. Didn't come in as there were no tickets available at the box office. The security service was also very rude. (Original) Kamen nach 7 Stunden Anreise an. Sind jedoch nicht reingekommen da keine Tickets an der Abendkasse verfügbar waren. Der Sicherheitsdienst war außerdem sehr unfreundlich.

    If you're into electronic music this is definitely the place to be. Amazing soundsystem, huge lineups, great lightning and one of the wildest crowds that I've ever experienced in a club. The entry is pretty quick compare to other venues of the same size. Definitely gonna try to come back at some point.

    (Translated by Google) Am every Monday there for the blacklist, and it's always a feast. Rarely as pleasant and easy celebrated. There are no problems with the bouncers had. Club is really nice and the people are coming from there to celebrate all really down to earth and mega friendly. Can only recommend the boathouse! (Original) Bin jeden Montag dort für die Blacklist und es ist jedesmal ein Fest. Selten so angenehm und problemlos gefeiert. Bis jetzt noch keine Probleme mit den Türstehern gehabt.

    (Translated by Google) A dream for every fan of electronic music, the system is world class. But what really sets the boathouse apart are the people and the incredible atmosphere, you can tell that the people are there for the music and to celebrate. I've been there several times without a drink and it's always been fun! One more note: Pay attention to whether there are special events, then it can happen that only one floor is open and only one genre is playing! (Original) Ein Traum für jeden Fan von Elektronischer Musik, die Anlage ist Weltklasse. Was das Bootshaus aber wirklich ausmacht sind die Leute und die unglaublich Stimmung, man merkt das die Leute wegen der Musik und zum Feiern da sind. Ich war schon mehrmals da ohne etwas zu trinken und es hat immer Spaß gemacht! Ein Hinweis noch : Achtet darauf ob spezielle Veranstaltungen sind, dann kann es vorkommen das nur ein Floor offen ist und nur eine Musikrichtung läuft!

    (Translated by Google) Does his reputation live up to. You envy that you can hardly go there every weekend because you don't live nearby. Great big dance floors. Lighting technology is not bad either. Been to many clubs for techno raves and boathouse has definitely left an impression. Always my pleasure. (Original) Macht seinen Ruf alle Ehre. Da beneidet man es das man kaum jedes Wochenende dahin kann weil man nicht in der Nähe wohnt. Geile große dancefloors. Licht Technik ist auch nicht von schlechten Eltern. War schon in vielen Clubs zu Techno Raves und Bootshaus hat auf jeden Fall einen Eindruck hinterlassen. Immer wieder gerne.

    For a beginner to raves and German clubbing in general, this was a really great way to be introduced. The venue is large, with multiple rooms and DJs to experience. Additionally, the outside area is large enough to escape to if you need to take a break. Overall I found the pricing for drinks to be fair as well.

  • 5/5 pien 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing vibe and venue. It’s so nice that there are multiple bathrooms and the outside area is big with lots of place to sit and take a break. Amazing music and the employees are kind and do their job super well. Definetly recommend this to any techno lover.

    Very cool club, different levels, enough bars to avoid lines, outdoor area if you want to chill. Mixed crowd, nice friendly vibe and great selection of DJ's. Check the website as they really go all in on genres.

    Bouncers were a bit on edge, drinks cost 9€ for a Vodka Tonic. Overall environment super fun and great crowd. There is a food stand that definitely helped out after a few drinks! Proper techno!

    Went here when they invited KSHMR for a night of big room house music and it was absolutely amazing. I've been to many top clubs around the world, but Bootshaus is just on another level. The staff is great, the music is crystal clear and they invite DJs that blow the roof off the club. The crowd is crazy and full of energy. You can match how wild you want to party to any level by standing closer/further from the centre of the dance floor. They have a nice lounge area outside from where you can hear the music playing inside. We bought our tickets up front and did not have to wait in line to get in. Do buy them up front though, because it seemed like there were no tickets for sale at the entrance. Also, as of writing this, you can pay by card in Bootshaus.

    DJ Emin was UNBELIEVABLY good. That guy deserves quadruple salary. As a dnb and dubstep fan, this guy was the real deal. If this guy doesn't get a raise, ill personally crash the place down. Sorry, not sorry. Kind regards, Pejet & co

    Ich und mein Freund waren am 24. Februar 2024 während der Euphoria-Nacht dort. Ich habe im Internet gesehen, dass es einer der besten Clubs der Welt ist und dass in dieser Nacht Techno angesagt war, also dachte ich, ja, warum nicht, gehen wir hin. Ich habe 30 Euro pro Person für das Ticket bezahlt. Als wir dort ankamen, haben wir 20/30 Minuten gewartet, um reinzukommen (Eingangskontrolle und Garderobe) und als wir reinkamen, waren wir sehr enttäuscht. Der Ort war überhaupt nicht wie auf den Bildern, in Wirklichkeit sah es aus wie ein kleiner Club, wie ein kleiner Raum mit einem Haufen blockierter Leute, die nicht einmal tanzen konnten. Es war so hell in dem Raum, dass ich alles sehen konnte. Aber das war nicht das Schlimmste. Das Schlimmste war die Musik. Sie war alles andere als Techno. Wir waren so enttäuscht, dass wir nach einer Stunde gegangen sind, weil es an diesem Abend nichts Gutes gab. Ehrlich gesagt denke ich, dass ich nicht zurückgehen werde und ich empfehle jedem, auf die Bilder und das, was sie online sagen, zu achten. Wenn ihr noch nie dort wart, versucht es mit einem günstigen Ticket und geht hin. Ich kann nicht glauben, dass wir 60 Euro für das Ticket verschwendet haben: .... Wir waren schon in vielen Techno-Clubs und auf vielen Events und Festivals, also ist es nicht so, dass wir nicht wissen, wovon wir reden... ich gebe normalerweise keine Kommentare online ab, aber ich war so enttäuscht, dass ich es tun musste, vielleicht lesen die Leute das hier und versuchen es mit einem billigeren Ticket, anstatt all das Geld für nichts zu verschwenden.

    No queue at the toilets, no queue at the bar, 9€50 for captain Morgan’s, not too crowded, seemed really safe, quick at the entrance, easy to park around, and the atmosphere in there was wild. Been partying around Europe for a while now and this place was really an amazing experience. Don’t hesitate : tech house, techno and dubstep fans are in for a treat

    I heard a lot about the club and had my friends over from London and India.. however after we got frisked we were denied entry by one of the bouncers at the entry on no basis. Felt more like it was racially motivated, I got so embarrassed in front of my friends, i will never ever recommend someone to go this club again, they don’t have ethics how to attend customer, just spoiled my whole evening. 😤🤮
