Staff were very accommodating. Comfortable room, very nice breakfast in the morning, and generously allowed me to leave my bag there after I checked out so I could explore Cologne without my luggage.

Location was convenient to the train station. We received a warm welcome, and our room was available ahead of schedule when we arrived.
After a day of train travel we were checked in quickly and efficiently allowing us maximum time to explore Cologne.
Everyone was very friendly and spoke English well.
very close to the station.
no pot for hot water, no coffee or tea on the room... its a problem when the reception closes at 20:00 and you cant get any thing...
They are probably trying hard to keep the guests happy but to much need of restoration to be on top. Apart from that. All is working and breakfast is good. It’s not in any place bad but if you expect hotel you gonna be disappointed but as a low budget alternative they are excellent.
Like a famous Irish airline, you get what you pay for and that’s all.

Liked: Cleanliness
Lovely receptionist at check-in (a man), really rude at check-out: the lady clearly wasn't happy that I could speak German.
The bed was way too soft.
The room was sparkling clear, nicely decorated and very quiet.
the staff are all very nice. the whole hotel gives a cosy family hotel vibe and are very friendly to foreign visitors. Even though we made a mistake of late check in due to reservation issue, the staff are still very patient in handling it and we appreciate that a lot.

Very close to train station and cathedral. Room was in attic up some very high stairs. There was a lot of noise from adjoining room due to closeness. Breakfast was good with freshly cooked eggs and lots of choice. Very friendly staff. Check in was unusual with using ipad and getting a code. Ideally placed for old town.
The hotel is a few steps from the central station, large room, having a kitchenette was a bonus. The shower stall is small, but you have to consider the age of the building. The staff was helpful and welcoming
It’s within easy walking distance of the Köln Hbf station and the Dom. It is ideal for visiting the Christmas markets. Having the train virtually on the doorstep it’s a breeze for going to other places such as Aaken etc.
The staff are very friendly and helpful and the choices at breakfast are able to suit every diet or taste and set you up for the day
This is not the most modern hotel, but the staff are the friendliest and most helpful I have come across from the check in to the breakfast service to the checking out procedure. The bathroom may have been a little small, but the welcoming nature of the place outweighed any slight hassles.
The room was very quiet although I did hear the TV in the neighboring room for about an hour, which was slightly annoying. Luckily it stopped at around the time I went to bed. Breakfast buffet was very good.
We have stayed at the Dom Spitzen before because it is so convenient for the train station and cathedral centre. The staff are lovely and the breakfast selection excellent. My only wish would be for a downstairs lounge area, as there are just a couple of chairs in the reception area. If you struggle with stairs ask to be on the right hand side of the hotel because the left has no lift.
