When we arrived at night about 8pm the entrance area was a bit off putting but please do not let this put you off.As soon as you get out of the lift the hotel area is clean and all staff were very helpful even though my German is non existent! Room clean and perfect forca few nights. Only slight complaint would be we booked a twin room but had a large doublecwith 2 single duvets but this was not a major issue.

Great service
Wonderful stay here with my husband The man at the reception was so kind that h came downstairs to the car park to speak to the car parking lady to help translate that we have paid for our parking so we wouldn't get charged. Honestly lovely service and a great hotel. If we're in cologne, we would stay here again!

Clean and friendly hotel
We had a one night stay at this great little hotel. Staff were friendly, the rooms clean and there are nice communal areas, including an outdoor terrace. It's on the 6th floor but there’s a lift. Location is close to the old town, only 10 or so minutes to cathedral and train station, and there's a decent small supemarket on the ground floor open quite late (10pm on our weekday) Just check in advance that you have the rooms you require, however, as we booked twins and were given doubles (although beds were the equivalent of 2 singles in width with separate duvets)

The staff was very courteous to us, and the room was just what we needed. The staff also helped us get accustomed to the area, and helped to make us feel right at home! The property is located very close to the Christmas Markets, and quite close to the train station as well.

This is NOT a hotel. It is a hostel. The floors were really dirty in our room. My son took his shoes off, took a few steps, and got on the bed… the amiunt of dirt and hair (not ours) that fell off his socks onto the bed was gross.

Partially disappointing
The strong point of this hotel is the position, at walking distance from the most important attractions. At street level, in the same building, there is a large supermarket. There are many restaurants, bars, and shops in the area. The room was large enough for a single bed. There was also an armchair, a coffee table and a table with two stools. I used one of the latter as night table (missing). The garderobe needs repair. The table lamp swiched off unexpectedly and randomly. Amazingly, the minibar fridge was connected to the same circuit of all other power outlets, which are activated by the room key. Therefore, the fridge works only when you are in the room, which is completely silly and makes it unuseful. But above all, the air conditioning was fake: in "cool" mode, only the fan worked, without any cooling effect. During the night the room was quite hot, and opening the window did not help so much. The mattress is quite hard. The bathroom is modern and well equipped. However, there is no place to put the soap bar/shampoo in the shower. The room was cleaned every two days only, although the towels were changed every day. The night staff was friendly.
