Disliked: Amenities
This is a very budget hotel. I knew my room would be small, but it was in very poor condition. The top of bed was in a recess so that when you sit up you bang your head. The adjustable lamp above was also loose and hanging directly down. No bedside table or even a little shelf, so your phone, glasses, water, etc have to be on the floor. Wifi was very weak and wouldn’t stay connected. Oh and there was no hot water, which didn’t seem to bother the receptionist too much. All for £159 a night!

Great Hôtel but ruined by lack of air conditioning

Lovely location, lovely staff, lovely condition, very modern and clean but 26 degrees in the room and impossible to sleep. So I cannot advise staying here, it is so uncomfortable and so unnecessary. It’s so unfortunate that the Hôtel chooses to not allow guests to set their own temperature. For someone like me who has a heart condition, I find it really bad for my health as I could only get a couple of hours sleep. It’s just seriously unhealthy. And the owners and management should be ashamed. When everything else is so good this is really just a big big mistake.

Great location within the main shopping area. A few minutes walk to the Döm and old town, and to the chocolate museum. Automated check in code didn’t seem to work but it was daytime so we just went inside to the reception desk where the staff were friendly and welcoming. Room was clean, though very small. Bathroom was functional but the shower door was a little temperamental. We didn’t have breakfast at the hotel so can’t comment on that. We found the department store across the road had a lovely buffet for only 5€. I would certainly stay at this hotel again, it was good value for money and surprisingly quiet for such a central location.

Nice hotel, excellent staff, incredible location.

A nice, well managed and well maintained hotel in a terrific location on the edge of the old town, with easy access to tourist attractions, and just steps away from an U-Bahn station, multiple restaurants and a Rewe market. The hotel staff was exceptionally friendly and professional. Although we were unable to check in early, the hotel stored our bags so we were able to enjoy a day in the city. The hotel room was clean, reasonably spacious and quite comfortable. The bed was confortable and the bathroom was well designed and adequately appointed. We were particularly grateful to our air conditioning since we visited during a heatwave. The location was incredible, as we were steps away from anything we either needed or wanted. We would definitely consider staying here the next time we visit this grand city.

A great location in centre of the city within easy walking for all main city sights like EL DE Haus and the Dom. Very nice breakfast with helpful staff. There's a car park multi-storey next door or a QPark is 10mins walk away.

My stay was for the most part excellent. The one exception was street noise. The hotel is located on a major pedestrian thoroughfare, so there is considerable noise from the street into the evening, although it is gone later in the night. There is a subway station and a tram stop nearby, making it easy to get around Cologne.

I would pick a different hotel next time

Lots of street noise filtered into my room (I think something may be wrong with the window latch). The shower head did not fit properly so the water shot out both through the nozzle and sideways. Hotels.com says they have a business center, but staff said they do not. Someone is wrong, which left me out to dry. The blackout curtains were very effective. The bed was sagging and came with one pillow.

Lovely hotel. 10 mins walk from HBF train station. In busy area but at the end of it so very quiet. Room comfort good and got upgraded to suite with Expedia gold status. Very strange though that you had to wait until exactly 3pm to check which made the 3pm shift start busy while the morning person did nothing. Odd bar never had a bartender? Overal nice and would definitely stay again if I was in the area.

4 star? Really? It was ok. No public facilities worth mentioning. Small reception. Dodgy, 80s looking bar that was unsurprisingly always empty. Didn’t mind the very small single room but hanging space minimal. Had to put my coat over the door stay! Pool/gym/spa was 200m away. No tea making facilities. Best was on first morning. Hadn’t pre booked breakfast but turned up 35 mins before buffet closed saying I’d pay and was told I was too late. A straight no! 4 star? Not a chance! Price was reasonable compared to average at this time but now I know why.

Booked extra large dome suite for 4 nights, paid for on Expedia. Issues: Completed online booking process, including entering passport details which is too intrusive. Despite this, check in still took far longer than normal. Was told I only needed to pay city taxes. Unauthorised charge for full stay (700 ) taken from original credit card, despite already paying through Expedia. Told I need to wait 2 weeks to get this back. As others have said, no info provided on check in. Email sent on day 2 providing wifi password, & One Key activation. Strong smell of ciggarette smoke pumped continuously into the bathroom which filled the room. Extremely unpleasant. Of note: The room is very dusty, there are lots of shiny services and dust comes in through the windows so I can see why the cleaners don't bother. Clean bedding & sinks, although hair found in bath plug hole. Damp patch on sofa and damp hand towel found on checking in. Only one large towel provided. The bath has a low shower attachment so no standing shower. Minimal facilities provided, empty fridge, no soap in toilet, no tea making facilities. Dark room with broken wardrobe light so no way of seeing in the wardrobe or safe at night. Comfy bed, although 2 singles pushed together with 2 single duvets may not suit some. The room may be sound proofed but windows are not, located on main road near fire station. Pros: Receptionists polite and keen to rectify what issues they can, providing towels and pillows on request.
