Hotel was rather old but managed well. However my room faced a street and windows did not block noise from the outside. Reception was kind enough and breakfast was good. A bit away from Koln central station.

We appreciated the location of this hotel, walkable from the train station and Cathedral. The staff was helpful and efficient. Our room was clean and comfortable, although small. We liked the larger closet with space to store an open suitcase. Air conditioning was wonderful during the hot days while we visited. The breakfast was delicious with lots of variety. We would happily stay here again!

Nice Hotel

It was a nice place, clean and comfortable, the room was large and had a very unique closet which was huge. The area was nice, easy walking to the Dom. My only suggestion for improvement would be that if you have a cafe-bar with signs saying open to 22:00, have someone around to operate it? We were in there for an hour hoping someone would come in but never happened and we just went to bed. I know they were around because there were others in there who were served. Small issue, otherwise a very nice place.

We really liked the quietness and location. It was not far from the Dom and other facilities. The staff were very friendly and we really loved the breakfast options. Our room was very large and had everything we needed. We had 2 remarks about the room. De outlets only worked when pressing a switch and this turned on all the lights connected to said outlets. Furthermore, the airco was also connected to an outlet. We had to disconnect the lights if we wanted to use the airco at night. The second remark is about the airco, it makes a lot of noise. It’s not a split system, and while it does the job, we could not sleep when it was on. Opening the window was no option because of the mosquitoes.

Sicuramente non vale le 4 stelle, ma credo neanche 3. Camere piccole, non insonorizzate. ho pernottato per 3 giorni (due notti) e non mi hanno cambiato gli asciugamani. Veramente incomprensibile che rientrato in albergo alle 20,00 mi sono recato al ristorante interno e mi han detto che a quell'ora chiude.
