Very close to the central station and a supermarket so great location. The breakfast was ok. If you have a sweet tooth you will probably like it a lot. Eggs made fresh was a nice service. Friendly staff. I had a room right next to the entrance and the door slammed at all hours. The room had a fan but no AC, and hardly any warm water in the shower.

Only got myself a small room, but it was very well situated near the main train station. There are some great restaurants nearby and it's a brief stroll to the cathedral. Breakfast was a treat, classic german-style buffet with eggs cooked to order.

The room was spotless and extremely comfortable. It was decorated beautifully with floral wallpaper, and soft furnishings to match.

The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean but fairly small. Unfortunately all I could heal all night was the footsteps of the guests in the room above me, which sounded a bit like they were part of the Riverdance crew.

Location is excellent. Within a very short walk to the station and all the sights. Spacious room with private bathroom and kitchenette. Downside is there is no lift in the building. We would however stay there again.

First the positive about this apartment building converted into a hotel: excellent, central location, nice decor, and great breakfast buffet. Unfortunately, three key elements that make for a standard hotel room were missing: Wi-Fi signal didn’t go beyond one bar and mostly didn’t connect at all; wall mounted television was unplugged with the power outlet 2 meters up the wall with no way to reach it; the shower, even after letting it run for five minutes plus did not provide anything beyond tepid temperature. The room was extremely warm despite the two wall heaters being turned off. I really wanted to like this place more, but unfortunately can’t give it more than two stars.

I stayed here over Gamescom. It was clean, but as with many hotels in Cologne, it is small rooms, and hot without any air condition. Breakfast was decent, service good, but overall way to expensive for what it is. But so are most places in Cologne during the Gamescom week.

It’s just 250m from the main station, meaning you hear trains all night long. If you are a light sleeper, don’t book this one.

Great service and breakfast

Fantastic service and kind staff! Good and varied breakfast. Central location by the main station, but a bit dodgy area at night. Funky coloured room - mine was all red and black - which was not my taste.
