Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort

3 nights.

The staff was very good. The room was cramped due to awkward placed furniture. They need to remove a few pieces. Although, the bathroom was recently remodeled. The interior of the hotel needs updates. We have been traveling for a month now and the overall condition of this hotel would be towards the bottom, but still acceptable. The location is good and everything is walkable. Many good restaurants very close by. The main strain station is an easy 5 minute walk.

Great location

Great location in the heart of Cologne, two minutes from the riverside and Cathedral. The hotel staff are friendly and the rooms are comfortable, if a little dated. It was a brief stay but an enjoyable one. Would be happy to use again.

Needs an update!

It’s a very old hotel where you need an “old”key to manually open the doors. The elevator has a door that you have to slide open before entering. The service desk attendant was hesitant to go give us water.

Weekend break

Hotel itself was clean and comfortable. Lovely clean bathroom. Couldn’t fault it. The only problem for our room was that it was next to the bar next door. They had loud music and karaoke up until midnight and it kept us both awake both nights.
