An okay place
I suppose it was a mistake to arrive on a Sunday night when there was no one on reception. I had had to used a push button to talk to someone and then negotiate an electronic key, trice, with suitcases. I then entered a lobby with no signs. I found the lift and the room, eventually, but it soured my view of the hotel from the off. The staff were lovely... when they were there. There is no bar. The breakfast was continental and adequate. The Turkish restaurant next door is off putting as you had to endure the smoke from hookahs to get to your hotel.

Really great stay. Clean and modern with nice staff. It’s just far away enough from Dom to be peaceful, but a close enough walk.

The beds!
The hotel was nice and in a quiet part of what looks like a business area, there are shops and cafes nearby and the station at Hansaring is only a 10 min walk, walking to the old town was 25mins and straight forward.
The room was nice (Suite) and nice views. The only thing that let the room down were the beds, two singles together that don’t lock and single duvets! A bit of research shows this is normal in Germany, why I’ll never know, needless to say I spent the night wrestling with the duvet and trying not to fall down the gap!

I liked that they had comfortable modern single rooms and it would be a very comfortable environment for someone travelling alone, although I was on a trip with another friend. The managed provided good recommendations in the surrounding area. Breakfast was great - cold meats and cheese, boiled and scrambled eggs, various types of bread (request the great gluten-free bread rolls in advance), cereals and yoghurt, teas, coffee and juices. 20-minute walk to the cathedral and 30-minutes to the river.

A wonderful place to stay while in Cologne. I've stayed at this hotel several times and never been disappointed in the rooms or friendliness of the staff. The property is adjacent to a subway/light rail stop, but the DOM is an easy walk away. Using the incredible public transit system, I was able to get to the hotel in less than 1 hour from the Cologne-Bonn airport.

One of the best hotels ever. All is in place, comfort
At its max (excellent bed, powerful shower)
Staff is excellent and will go the extra mile for accommodating your needs.
Conveniently located, walkable vibrant area with all services, you can enjoy Köln as a local or walk a short distance to the tourist attractions. Will definitely stay here again.

Great boutique hotel near the center of Koln. The rooms represent a good value and are larger with higher ceilings than most European hotel rooms—also, large operable windows and a spacious bathroom. Staff was friendly and helpful, public transportation was right in front of the hotel, great German restaurant a block away.

A great stay- comfortable accommodation in a neighbourhood with excellent transport options from both city and the airport. We easily and enjoyably strolled in to the central area via many iconic churches and lovely restaurants and shops. Don’t discount the breakfast offered at the hotel, the buffet was awesome and frequently replenished. Such a shame that so many lacklustre reviews for this hotel actually appear to relate to properties in NYC!

The staff was beyond great and accommodating with our stay, friendly, and gave great recommendations. The things we didn't like is 18 euros for a breakfast buffet for a subpar buffet. We paid 15 euros at a place in Fussen that had a larger and better selection. Had limited selection of eggs. They only had two, boiled egg and scrambled eggs. Not much of a selection. which their flyer said a selection of eggs. The elevator was small for two people with luggage. It said a max of five people but for two people with 2 suitcases it was tight. Even though it was walking distant of the Dom. The outside of hotel wasn’t great. The parking lot smells like piss. The walls are paper thin. Heard the couples next to us.

The Good:
- excellent location - not in the city centre but walkable to/from the cathedral, main Christmas markets.
- shopping & dining - Köln’s finer, unique, curated and hipper shopping options are in the area. Think local and independent. Similar idea for dining plus local specialty coffee shops
- easily accessible by public transit
- quiet area
- room condition - balcony, updated room interiors, clean carpets, overall a well-designed room with ample storage space
The Not-So-Good
- room condition - shower space isn’t the issue. The awkwardness of the doors and the positioning of the shower plus the limited space meant significant leakage onto the bathroom floors. The main tap knobs between the shower stall and the toilet leaked too so you have quite a bit to mop up.
- service - the front desk was frequently unattended. Once, the one on shift appeared to have left to go upstairs. The automatic doors at the entrance were locked or not working. We could not enter until another guest stood on the other side to prompt the doors to open.
- billing - at check-in we were told about breakfast of which reminded the staff that it wasn’t included. They confirmed that it wasn’t but we were still charged for it but was thankfully removed after we raised the issue.
- room amenities - they gave us Nespresso coffee pods but there was no machine. We were told it was a mistake. We asked if there was a kettle at least to boil waiter and were told no

Konforlu bir otel
Otel çok güzel büyük odalar ve konforlu bir dizaynı var ve merkeze uzaklığı müthiş gerçekten 10 dakika yürüdüğünüzde katedrale gelmiş oluyorsunuz ki biz paris rotamızı sırf bunu da görelim diye yönlendirdik. Bize de şansımıza balkonlu ve şehri görebildiğimiz bir oda denk geldi. Odalarda kahve makinesi yok. Tek ve en büyük sıkıntısı başka odadan gelen çok duymak istemeyeceğimiz seslerdi biz büyük problem yapmadık ama çocuklu bir aile olsaydık durum vahimdi.
