Hyatt on wrong side of river? Whats involved to get where u need to go?
Two healthy legs.... that take you across the Rhine via the 'Hohenzollern' Bridge, which is right next to the Hyatt. Alternatively, you could also take the tram and cross the river via the 'Deutzer' Bridge to the Heumarkt / Interconti area. Google Maps should offer good overviews, the Hohenzollern bridge is the one north of / right next to the Hyatt, the Deutzer bridge is the one south of the Hyatt right next to the former Lufthansa WHQ.

The e-suite upgrade will get you a Regency Suite, one or two of them have a view of the Cathedral. It is a classic one-bedroom suite about twice the size of a regular room, but nothing too special. I used several paper vouchers here in the last years and the upgrade has always been the same.
I never received a suite at the Hyatt Regency Cologne without using a voucher, but received suites at the SPG properties for free.
