The staff were helpful and friendly at reception. The room was okay, but during the heatwave, the lack of any air conditioning made the room far too hot. Even the plug-in fan that was provided was not enough to keep the temperature down in the room, so we struggled to sleep overnight.
Location excellent for the adjacent railway station and being able to leave the bags with them during the day was helpful.

The hotel is located right next to Cologne station with a great view of the cathedral from the breakfast room.

The breakfast was good value and the equal of many more expensive ones we had taken earlier in the trip as it had more options with regard to dairy and gluten free.

All staff were very friendly.

The room is small and old, but it was near the train station so we booked it. We only found out when we arrived that the hotel has no air conditioning at all, so during the heatwave it was unlivable. Do not come here unless you're okay with sweating while sitting still and sleeping. We immediately rebooked to the Hilton which was far more comfortable.

Very close to the train station and easy access to the old city. The room is insulated enough to stop the general noise of the station, but not the all night noise in the street. I was there during the heatwave, and while the room have some air circulation it is not AC and the room was 25-26c, so not comfortable to sleep. The breakfast is excellent. The room was clean and the shower worked on hot and cold (useful to cool down). Staff tried to be helpful.

The location is perfect it’s just in front of central station where you can go every where , but also so close to köln cathedral and old city on the Rhein River where all the beautiful sightseeing.
My room was Comfort Room and it was adequate to my needs for me and my wife.thanks God that the weather was nice 20 Celsius so I didn’t feel hot as there’s no Aircondition.
The staff are so nice and helpful.
I do recommend for all cologne visitors.
The price is reasonable.
But I hope they will add mini bar (refrigerator) to the room.

Second stay here. No issue with lack of air con at this time of year but would be a serious consideration in summer like last time. Check in was swift, if rather short in manner, maybe the language barrier caused some misunderstanding as my German is so rusty I seldom even bother to open with it! It's an older place with keys rather than key cards. Perfectly adequate for an overnight stop (30 seconds across the square to the station). That said I'd spend a bit more if you're here in summer or for a holiday.

I booked a bit last minute so the price was high, around 200 per night. For that price, it was absolutely terrible value. I stayed in December so it was a very busy time. The location is convenient but it is also a very noisy area. The hotel itself is a bit old and while it was renovated at some point, it does not appear to have air conditioning which could be a problem in hot weather. You will have difficulty sleeping with the window open due to all the noise. The housekeeping starts early, before 9 am, and they are quite noisy in general but one particular morning one of them was very talkative and the door and walls let in all the sound from the hallway and surrounding rooms so sleeping in after a long night of drinking kolsh is quite difficult. The bed and the pillows in particular were very uncomfortable. I'm still not sure I would book a stay here again even at half the price I paid. I've stayed in much more comfortable rooms for less than that.

The rooms are small - think dormitory small. They were reasonably clean but the carpet on the stairwell was gross. The lift: tiny and slow. The location, while near the station, is noisy with buses and drunks consistently disrupting any night’s sleep. To cap it off - the line receptionist locked the main doors while off ‘doing something’ so several guests couldn’t even get access for over 10 minutes. Over-priced as well. Avoid.
