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.

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.
