The most disgusting hotel I've ever stayed. I'm not sure how they landed on a 4* rating, but I'd put this hotel at hostel level. The website photos catfished me into booking this dire accommodation. The lights in the room won't go out unless the key card is taken out of the slot, but then my phone won't charge...! When I called reception he answered my call with "yeah?". Vile, tired, horrible hotel. Avoid!

Very convenient location, a ten minute walk from the Cathedral and main station. We arrived at 9.30 am, after leaving a river cruise, expecting to leave our bags in the luggage room, but our room was already available.

Convenient if characterless hotel

Handy for Cologne HBF, clean and efficient. Mostly a conference hotel, so no charm, but comfortable and does everything you need it to. A self-service breakfast was included and had plenty of options.

Hotel is close to the cathedral but far enough to be very quiet. The room was large, the breakfast was perfect and staff were great.

Nice looking property huge inside . Easy to find out 10min walk from train station. Arrived about 7pm due to travelling from Munich . Given a room on 4th floor . Went out for a meal returned later. Was awoken about 5am when cologne starts work . Dual carriageway road at back/side of property. Could not sleep again due to road noise - but went quiet about 8am. Obviously this is a city hotel so an amount of noise is a given and I noticed the windows were double glazed but probably needed more secondary glazing (for me). Room and facilities in room excellent . Breakfast good and plentiful. Looks like it’s used for large events/corporate events. If I was staying more nights I would have asked to change to an internal room but we were leaving for a flight that morning.
