This was a great option for ease of access to the central strain station and within walking distance of everything you would want to see. The price I paid was great and got exactly what I expected, however was impressed with room size and en-suite. The shower was hot and powerful, and the bed was comfy. Just what I needed for a hotel where I only returned to sleep. Would highly recommend and book again.

Decent budget hotel close to the hbf. Main room was spotless. Apart from the main light didn't work I could have complained but wanted sleep. Bathroom was reasonable though nasty stain in the toilet and water heater looked a bit precarious

Great price for the location and quality. Perfect for a short stay. Since it’s beside the train station it might be noisy for some however for me it’s not a bother as it’s just white noise. Staff very friendly and would stay again due to its close proximity to the city centre.

Just what was needed and a great location.

Didn’t realise I had booked a hostel but the private room was very good for the time I was staying in the Cologne. The staff were excellent and kind and extremely helpful especially with sorting a fan out in the middle of the night due to the heat. Location just a 5 minute walk from Central Station is also a positive.

Great Stopover

We visited as a quick stopover enroute by train from Sweden to the UK. The hotel was easy to find and a short walk from Cologne station. We arrived just after 11.30pm and were greeted and provided our room. The room was basic, but clean, warm and functional. Only downside was no lift as we had some heavy bags, but on balance a great experience.

A&O galluswerte would go to this place and study.

If A&o galluswerte was hell i would say that this was supergood. If the receptionist at galluswerte was the worst , this receptionist was the best. Thank you for your professionalism
