Very clean and smart hotel in a great location. Lift was broken which would have been useful to know in advance. The fan was noisy but after moving a few times it stopped squeaking. Recommend getting a bigger room as the cosy rooms are small with the queen bed being more like a double.

Belle hôtel, bien situé par contre aucun air climatisé. Seulement un ventilateur qui n'était pas suffisant et qui était avec un timer donc il a arrêté apres 120 minutes. Très chaud pendant la nuit ce qui nous a empêché de dormir.

Lovely central spot for all the tourist sites. The breakfast was top notch.

Be aware that when it's hot there is no A/C and the street noise is loud into the late evening.

There was a 24 hour-a-day consistent, screeching, shrill noise outside our window, which sounded like a bird deterrent. The front desk passed it off as 'construction' noise that would go away when they stopped working, but this was NOT true. We were there during a heat wave, so we couldn't sleep with our window open once the night cooled (it was still audible even when the window was closed, but it was at least a bit better). It was miserable. Also, I'm 5'2' and my knees almost touched the wall when sitting in the toilet - extremely uncomfortable.

The room was fine. It was clean and comfortable. We selected a room for 3 which apparently meant a cot was rolled in. We also visited during a heat wave and the hotel does not have AC. It was extremely hot in our room. The window faces exhaust fans which was making the room hotter than outside. We barely got any sleep. One small weak fan was placed in our room that didn’t do much. We also were told that breakfast was included at check in but in the morning was told that it was not.

Small hotel in the cent of cologne near the shopping precinct, and the cathedral. The hotel rooms were basic but clean and tidy. The breakfast was basic with only scrambled egg and German sausage, but did have fresh peppers and tomatoes with the normal selection of meat and cheese. Generally recommend but only fair.

Check in staff was unprofessional. On Checkout was kind and professional.
Room was ok, but poor ventilation. At some point you’d feel you’re in the kitchen from the food smell coming out from toilet ventilation.
Breakfast options are very limited.

The rooms were clean and some were more spacious than others. We had 2 rooms booked with two twin beds and had to have the staff prepare one of the rooms after check in as they were together. Room 116 is a spacious, corner room I’d suggest requesting. The breakfast had lots of options and only a small fee. The front desk staff were helpful and welcoming.

Amazing location! Everything is within walking distance — the Cologne Cathedral, the train station, Christmas markets, shopping streets, and tons of great food. The room is small, but very clean and well taken care of. Breakfast was fantastic, and the staff were super friendly and helpful. I’d definitely stay again

The manager was a welcoming and friendly character who wore a smile every time we saw him. The room was clean and well lit.

There were a few negatives to our stay, such as a bad smell on arrival but that cleared after we aired out the room, the radiator needed bleeding but it still kept the room warm, most frustrating is there was no access to an iron.

Despite the negatives, this hotel ticked every single box for us - although we are not too fussy.
The service, location, and hotel in general was perfect for us and I wouldn’t think twice about staying here again.

This hotel is very much in the heart of Cologne. We enjoyed having to walk around the area as there are many shopping places to go to. The amenities were great. Everything was clean and updated. Staff were amazing! All were helpful and accommodating. We highly recommend this hotel!

Very clean, comfortable and conveniently placed. We had the small room but everything was there that you needed ... just compact. Quiet if windows were closed as some light traffic.

A very nice hotel. Warm welcome. Smart clean rooms. Very comfortable beds. Breakfast was delicious... Highly recommended for a stay in Cologne City Centre. I will choose this hotel for all visits to Cologne.

The stay itself was fine, location good. However, only 8 hours before I left home to travel to the hotel I got an email from them to say my room was cancelled. When I phoned the hotel no one knew why. This left me very distressed as I knew cologne was going to be very busy. Although I’d booked a superior room with twin bed all they were able to give my friend and I was a small comfort room with a queen bed. At that late stage we’d no option but to take it. However we were not reimbursed the difference. Very frustrating and disappointing at such a late stage.
Room itself coukd so with a few hooks and shelves to store things

Great hotel that was so central I couldn’t believe it! Brilliant for just walking straight out to the shops or somewhere to eat. But it was still quiet at night. Comfy beds. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

It was a very cute place, loved that a fan was available but maybe to have different pillows. The ones we had were to soft

Located in a central and convenient area of Cologne close to restaurants and shopping options. Rooms were clean and staff were very friendly.

We needed to store our bags when we checked out. They didn't really have a proper secure place to do so.

The hotel was great. It was hot but there was a fan and windows opened. Breakfast was good, there were several options.
Check in was a little long because they didn’t realize I had paid through Expedia and had trouble confirming that. That part was frustrating and my card was charged and refunded.

Would stay again

Central location, comfortable and a free breakfast. Would have appreciated some vegan options for breakfast. Noise can be heard from the street but this quietened down overnight on the Monday. There was an issue with the new fire alarm system on the Tuesday morning but this was resolved after it happened a few times. Would recommend this affordable hotel if not looking for anything extremely special.

We hadden blijkbaar een druk weekend gekozen want er waren weinig hotels beschikbaar. Ik snap dat ik dan meer moet betalen als ik op het laatste moment boek. Het is echter de verantwoordelijkheid van het hotel en Hotels.com om niet te overvragen. Ik wil best €350 voor een nacht betalen (incl ontbijt & tax, ex parkeren) maar verwacht dan veel meer dan dit hotel kon bieden. Het was nu dus echt veel te duur voor wat er werd geboden. Het is echter geen slecht hotel. Dit zijn de belangrijkste + & -/-:
+ Locatie (alles wat wij belangrijk vonden op loopafstand)
+ Ontbijtbuffet (tot het laatste moment aangevuld)
- Geen eigen parkeergarage, wel een openbare op 100m
- Mieren in de kamer
- Zeer gehorig naar de naastgelegen kamer(!)
- Geen koelkastje in de kamer
