Nice room, great location for attractions and restaurants, walking distance to cathedral and train station
4.1
The room was nice and the staff were friendly but the rainfall shower head needed replaced. Half of it didnt put out water and the half that did sprayed everywhere but down. The bathroom also had a sewage smell each time you walked in.
4.1
Room was good quality, as it appeared in the photos. Staff were friendly at checkin. Bottled water provided in the fridge, free WiFi, a usb charge port on the dock for the provided tablet. Great location.
The negatives are, the safe didn't work - this is a problem for me and have knocked if a star for this. Staff were not able to fix it.
The bathroom was very small although the shower had good power and it was clean.
There is very little storage. For hanging storage I could hang about 4 shirts. There was no cupboard or drawer storage so could no unpack my suitcase. This was ok for me as a solo traveller but if staying for a week with my wife it would be a bigger problem.
It was also quite noisy from the street and maybe the restaurant beliw. I stayed on a Sunday and Monday, glad it wasn't Friday and Saturday.
Overall a good hotel for the price. If the safe worked I would have given it 4 stars.
4.1
Nice hotel overlooking the Rhine. Room and bed were comfortable and food in pub next door was good (10% discount for hotel guests). Down side was that hot water took about 10 minutes to come through, meaning loads of wasted water. Also workmen repairing the walkway outside the hotel started at 6.15am using very noisy machinery!
4.1
The hotel is in a perfect location on the Rhein and near the Dom and Hauptbahnhof. It is beautifully appointed and has a good restaurant on site. The staff is outstanding and very helpful. We highly recommend it.
The only negatives for us were a lack of hot water in our shower in our second room and a cancellation problem because we booked through Hotels.com and missed the cx date.
4.1
I was only staying for one night and wanted to take a shower, but they didn't have hot water. I believe hot water is a basic amenity expected in any hotel. Disappointingly, the staff didn't inform us about the issue beforehand, despite knowing it would take a long time to fix. I was extremely frustrated and disappointed. I complained to the hotel management, but they only apologized and offered a 30% refund.
4.1
Good location, cute balcony view. A bit small for two. Need to go through 3 doors to get to room
4.1
Our room was 310 at the front of the hotel however the lift only goes to the 4th or the 2nd floor (3rd if you are at the back of the hotel) so you have to walk and carry suitcases up or down a floor to get to your room. The room was compact to say the least, good job we didn’t have a cat. One side of the bed was up against the wall so you had to climb out of bed to the bathroom. The bathroom was very small but nice shower. No bar or restaurant in the hotel but you could use the bar/restaurant next door and get 10% discount (there is a big sign saying this) however the restaurant staff have other ideas. Even though I pointed this out he would not give us the 10% off I went to reception and spoke to the guy on the desk he went and spoke to the waiter he still was not having it. They tried to come up with ways to make the bill to what he said but could not, in the end they gave up and give me my money. The car parking is about 300m away over well spaced out cobblestones so if you have heavy cases be aware. This is not some where I would ever stay again be warned.

For a Tony Robbins event we booked this amazing hotel ! Free coffee and little snacks each morning
4.1
Lovely and clean hotel right smack in front of the Rhein River.
Beds are comfy, air conditioning were perfect and location is amazing because you are surrounded by great restaurants.
There is lift, but you may have to go through some doors and narrow stairs if you’re staying in the next block, so keep that in mind,
Amazing staff, Georgian and Stephanie, for their amazing hospitality.
4.1
The room is small but good for short stays. The mattress is not very comfortable. The location is great. The room service is horrible, even with a do not disturb sign. They came into the room while I was sleeping. On the last day, the card machine was broken and I had to pay in cash. The receptionists generally stay on their phones all day and do not care about the guests.
4.1
The staff are wonderful and so helpful. Will be staying there again if I’m ever around!
4.1
Hotel is in a great location but is between 2 joined buildings which can be confusing when trying to find your room. Within 10 minutes walking distance of the Köln Central Station, Lindtt Museum and 2 relaxed squares filled with restaurants and bars. The hotel rooms are modern but the rest of the hotel is very outdated. TV in the bedroom can not be changed from German audio/subtitles which makes it pointless to have for anybody who does not speak German. In the room there is a fridge and safe which are both free to use which is a plus. We had 2 instances of hotel staff just walking into our room (once while sleeping so didn’t hear them knock) and once while getting dressed (they didn’t knock on this occasion). This made my Mrs feel uncomfortable and on edge whenever we were in the room. Free pastries and coffee is available for all guests between 7am - 9:30am. Area the hotel is in is very expensive €7 for a small (400ml) draught coke) and €4.50 for a small (250ml) water.
4.1
The room was small but very cozy and quiet. It is located near the old town and not far from the train station
4.1
It takes about 10 minutes to walk along the river bank before reaching the city centre. It is acceptable for people fond of hiking to wander on the cobblestones surrounding the hotel and air is exceptionally fresh. The room was surprisingly neat and tidy. It would be perfect if the bathing closet did not leak on the bottom area. Some water might need to dry away before bathing as otherwise water would accumulate on the bathroom floor. Pillow provided was a pillow cover filled with a small blanket instead of pillow cotton. Overall speaking, the stay was impressive.
4.1
What a brilliant hotel, very modern and clean . It was in a perfect location. A short walk from Koln HBF, you're right in the mix of bars and restaurants on the Rhine. It is right next to the iconic coloured buildings.
We will be coming back to stay here again in the future.
4.1
Despite an issue about the room location-website misadvertising, reception staff (sharnice?- & George?), were great at sorting it out for us.
We have friends who live around 5 minutes from the hotel, so it was a great location for them and the river.
VERY clean hotel. Lovely view. Everything we needed.
Will definitely be back next year.
4.1
Visiting friends who live 5 minutes from the property.
Had slight mishap with room booking initially but staff sorted it out for us and were fantastic.
Hotel is VERY clean & tidy.
Perfect location for everything.

Can’t thank staff enough-will definitely stay there, when visiting again.
4.1
Lovely old hotel with views over the Rhine. Friendly staff, great location.
4.1
Stayed for 3 nights.
Quite small but has everything you need and is located right in the heart of Cologne by the Rhine.
There are so many places to eat and sights to see within walking distance.
The safe in our room didn’t work, there was a stain on one of the decorative pillows and the AC wasn’t amazing but it was very hot, 30+ degrees.
4.1
Hotel was great - definitely staying there again.
4.1
Room was extremely compact but clean and good air conditioning. No hot water on final morning throughout but apologised & were aware of fault. Location is excellent. No breakfast facilities available. Room was beside housekeeping facilities so extremely noisy in morning.
4.1
Room was small but as expected so not surprised by this. Room was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was clean, a bit small but was fit for purpose. Water was not provided every day as advertised, but I also didn't request any.
Made aware that breakfast was unavailable on arrival, alternative of pastries and coffee did the job.
Saturday night in a city view room was quite loud from the neighbouring bars, but didn't keep me awake.
Staff were friendly and helpful, no complaints there.

Directly on the river- perfect location
4.1
Great location. Right in front of the river and next to historical buildings
4.1
Overall, we had a great experience with the hotel; staff was incredibly helpful. The room was clean and had a nice view of the river. The area is within walking distance to almost everything including many dining options. However, it gets a little noise with night life.
4.1
Best central location. excellent customer service, online check in, welcome drinks, best AC room, well equipped, clean, excellent experience. Many Thanks
4.1
Great option
4.1
This hotel is not family friendly. There is no access to elevators, only stairs. Rooms are the size a small closet at best. Room service. Is non existent. There are no views. Basically the hotels.com description is fraudulent and deceptive.
Lastly this hotel is part old town where the streets are cobblestones which makes it hard to walk.
4.1
The place of the hotel was fabulous, and our suit was great for our family
4.1
Close to the river front so beautiful area. About a 20 min walk from the Kolner dom/central station. Very clean, spacious room. There is only one window and it’s in the bathroom and it faces the street but there are blinds so they do close.
4.1
Great location on the river bank. Very small rooms however and no breakfast available
4.1
Liked the location wirh easy access to amenities, the river and shopping areas. Rooms were clean, quiet and comfortable enough considering the busy area.
Did not like the slightly confusing lift with having to go up to go down , it was easier to use the stairs. Did not like the small basin with no plug or the shower door as water poured across the floor. The ao called river view was from a side wi dow.
4.1
The room smelled horrible (smell came from the bathroom/shower) and the staff did not do much about it except spraying room spray, which helped for about 20 minutes. Room seemed cleaned but the strong smell clearly indicated that something was off. Very great location though!
4.1
My family and I stayed here for one night. We were greeted at check in by friendly staff members who provided a coupon for 10% off at the restaurant next door.
Our room was spacious. We had 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom located on the 4th floor. One bedroom had a queen sized bed, mini bar, desk and a couch. The 2nd bedroom had a queen sized bed, pull out couch, desk and mini bar. Drinks in the mini bar were complimentary.
My only complaint about the room is that the mattress was very firm.
The parking garage that was 50% off was not easy for us to find and we ended up parking somewhere else. Many of the streets near the hotel were closed to vehicles and we decided to park near the Dom and walk.
The area around the hotel had many shops and restaurants to choose from. We also walked along the Rhein. This was a nice hotel at a good price.
4.1
Excellent location right at the river. Nice and clean room with Windows that keept the noise out. Perfect stay in Køln, you really want to be at the river, its so nice to sit there and watch the ships and everyday-life. And also- kølnerdom is just around the corner
4.1
Good location for walking around, good air conditioning in the room.
Room was difficult to reach (elevator, several doors and a lot of stairs). Not very quiet because of the central location.
4.1
Great hotel with awesome and spacious rooms. Friendly staff. Very central and close to all attractions, right on the water.
4.1
Great location, easy to get around by walking. Some nearby restaurants stay open a bit late, and things are nice and quiet after that.
I can only speak English and the hotel and everyone in the area around the hotel was very accommodating.
