Die Lage des Hotels ist wirklich spitze. Man kann alles Sehenswerte problemlos erreichen.
Das Personal ist freundlich.
Die Zimmer in Ordnung.
Nur die Parkmöglichkeiten sind richtig schlecht-man soll ins Parkhaus fahren und bezahlt dann für nicht einmal 24 Std ganze 32€!

OK, but overpriced
Check in experience was very poor, automated machine. Room was clean, bathroom was updated and nice.
However I find it very poor to spent > EUR 200/night to have no TV channels available and no heating a bit overpriced

This was a perfect place to stay the night while enjoying the city's many different christmas markets. It is perfectly situated beside one of the markets which made it easy for us to take a break in our room, use the washroom and drop off packages. This simple little hotel had everything we needed for a night in Cologne.
