It’s an average place, the bathroom is the main reason to give it 3 stars. The shower drainage was bad! Also the bathroom was more like a pod than an actual bathroom. The room service was awesome

Ibis Kolenmesse Germany.

Room was clean and tidy good breakfast choices very polite staff. Only thing that needs addressing is no usb charge points seem like this is a real service thing nowadays with phones that need charging. Other than that it was ok for my needs.

Great staff, decent breakfast, comfy beds, good bathroom with hairdryer and warm shower. Good space to store luggage and luggage contents (clothes etc.) Only drawback was that there was no kettle in the room but overall a great stay for a good price!

Nice hotel but poor service

The room was nice and cozy but the beer at the bar was disgusting and the waitress never gave a menu and didn’t understand basic English. The A/C didn’t work but the complaint never addressed

Simple, clean, comfortable

I had a comfortable stay for two nights in Köln Messe. It was nice to have a modern spacious room. It was appointed with just the right, basic touches. That’s what I needed in the price and I got that.

Even the non-"budget" Ibis is rather budget

Cons: only a couple power outlets in room, and not close to bed/nightstands. Weird pod-like bathroom. No dressers or mini-fridge, so fairly small and spartan room. Location is fair for tram but a hike for the trains. Very few walkable places around the hotel, more industrial area. At one point in morning, staff actually entered our room while we were still trying to sleep, which annoyed us. Pros: nice, posh lobby. Modern and good condition rooms and beds.
