Great hotel in a very convenient location, right in the heart of Cologne’s Old Town and close to Cologne Cathedral and the main train station. The room was clean, tidy, and comfortable. The hotel has a pleasant atmosphere, and the staff were polite. A very good choice for a stay in Cologne.

This hotel was excellent. Not far from the train station so easy to walk to. The hotel is close to the cathedral which was very convenient for walking. There is a square outside which was great for dinner. I would highly recommend the buffet breakfast. There was plenty of choice. The staff was very nice and helpful.

Had a great stay at this hotel which has a prime location right on the square in the Old town. Hotel was very clean throughout with really friendly and helpful staff. Room was nice facing on to the square which could be noisy with the windows open (others have mentioned this) but didn't really affect me as quite deaf anyway so would opt for the same room. Great choice for the continental breakfast with lots of fresh food and fruit. Overall had a great stay and will definitly stay here again.
