Great location. Right next to station. Good clean rooms. friendly staff. We had breakfast included although it was a bit basic. They will provide a kettle if requested.

Its a nice hotel, clean, great location next to the Koln HBF.

We had the 6th floor penthouse (but didn’t know it until we arrived, I just booked upgraded room). It was very roomy, nice shower, nice view. Gentleman at the front desk was friendly. The elevator stops at the 5th floor, so you need to take spiral staircase up to the sixth. It’s the only room on that floor.

There was not even a kettle to boil water for tea in that room. No water very small room

Comfortable hotel, nice sized bedroom. Decor generally good but a bit dated for those used to more modern rooms. Limited facilities in room (no tea, coffee or minibar). Can be a little noisy if facing the station/taxi rank if you are a person that needs silence to sleep - the double glazing is very good at reducing noise but could not be 100% effective.

The best thing about this hotel is its location. It is next to the central station and the Cologne Cathedral. It is also within walking distance to Ludwig Museum, the famous bridge with locks on the rail, and the old town center. The service of the staffs varied, depending on the time of the day. The lady who checked in us was really friendly and efficient, but when I asked about the heating in the room later on with a gentleman, he was not that helpful. The room we stayed was big, but there was a smell of smoking although it said this was a non-smoking room. It was cold that day and we could not figure out how to turn on the heating. Although I don't mind at all, the room key was an old, traditional metal key instead of the room card.

Good room nice close to train station. Fair sound proof

Ordinary hotel, clean room, good bed. Receptionists seemed uninterested. Noisy room cleaners in corridor, noisy area, many cars. Lukewarm water in shower. Very good location next to main station which is why I chose it and fair price. But 16,- euros on the internet and 18,- on site for breakfast(!) is a rip off! Go to a café instead!

Room and hotel OK. Clean tidy and a good breakfast. Room sound proofing ok. Once outside noise of traffic is constant. Area around the railway station extremely busy .

Tgis stay was perfect for traveling solo and wanting to take the train. I spent a day passing through. I was able to see some historic sites, enjoy the loca l cuisine, and take the train all within a short walk. The hotel offers breakfast and a fitness room. I was also able to leave my luggage for a short while before the train allowing me to wander a bit more in the city center. I had a single room.

The bathroom drain in the hotel room emits a bad odor; no air conditioning, Wi-Fi is very slow.

Good value for the money. Strategic location directly by the main station (it can be loud). Clean. Nice staff.

Nice hotel, good front desk staff. The area is problematic because of it's proximity to the train and bus stations. A lot of vagrants and homeless people. Was a little noisy at night. We could not hear the trains though, which was nice.

Usually when I stop in Cologne, passing through, I stay at the Ibis on the other side of the station (fully booked for once). Back when I was young & broke I even used the Station Backpackers Hostel. Kommerz Hotel is a decent option for similar purposes (and roughly 20 euro cheaper than Ibis). Friendly check in, old school room key (no magstrip cards) and bottled water in room. Downside is no air con, though a fan was supplied - I might have boiled alive otherwise! If you visit Cologne as a destination in it's own right then I would push the boat out & stay elsewhere. For one night though, it's fine.

Location to train station and cathedral can't be beat. Both are just right out the door. But the temperature, oh my. So hot in the room. A fan was provided but little help. Rooms without a breeze need portable A/C. If it had been a room with a breeze then no A/C would have been ok. I haven't tried to sleep while sweating since I was a kid.
