Smallest room of our trip

Convenient location once you're there, but finding the parking lot and even finding the hotel was a challenge. It is near the Cathedral, but a lot of sketchy people hang around the whole area, especially after dark. If you have a wider vehicle, be very care driving up the ramp. We had a very small room with a pillar that made it difficult to get out of bed. No chair to sit on. Also no space for a chair.

Burr its cold in here...

Overall, it's in a perfect location for the Cathedral and the Chocolate Museum. The room was big enough to comfortably sleep my family of 6. However, the room was so cold! No matter what we did, it was still much too cold for comfort. Reception offered us a small space heater on the 2nd night which helped a little. The parking garage is convenient, only and $19 a night but a very tight squeeze for larger vehicles.

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.

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)

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!
