Grandhotel Schloss Bensberg:
Kadettenstrasse, Bergisch Gladbach.
Good luck to the Asian Tigers. At least they're going to live like European Kings during the World Cup Finals. Built almost 300 years ago by Prince Jan Wellem and intended as a Maison de Retraite, this Baroque castle is situated on a hill in the center of Bensberg and offers a magnificent view of the city of Cologne, just 12km away. The Grandhotel Schloss Bensberg has 84 luxury rooms and 36 suites.

Hotels in Bergisch Gladbach:
If you're coming from South Korea and can't get in at the Schloss Bensberg, you could always try the Schlosshotel Lerbach, where Brazil stayed during the Confederations Cup and will return when they play in Dortmund, between the 18th and 29th June.

Bergish Gladbach:
The town of Bergisch Gladbach and the Rheinisch-Bergisch district look forward to welcoming th players, journalists and fans from South Korea and Brazil.
