Lovely friendly hotel in central area. Very near metro but also walkable to city. Breakfast excellent value, staff friendly. Bar is quiet but with many bars nearby there is no need. Single comfort room looked brand new with Double bed and coffee machine. Perfect Stat

The location is perfect, but the hotel is a bit dated

Staff were friendly & room was clean, everything worked and had no issues. The room itself was amazing, incredible high ceilings, a large bathroom + a balcony. We assumed we got a free upgrade to a suite, it was that nice - but looking at the floor plan, all the rooms seem similar

Nice big rooms and good staff.

The location is great. The hotel is a bit dated.

friendly helpful staff, good gym nice breakfast, good location

my room - especially the shower - has worn over time and does no longer represent 4* standard

The staff was helpful and the hotel is located close to a metro stop. It is also within walking distance from the city center. Very convenient. The room was clean and very spacious, but it's easy to see that the hotel soon will be in need of refurbishment due to old age.That said, me and my partner didn't have any problems whatsoever.

Great position, walking distance to metro. Very comfortable room.

Very noisy location, bad light in bathroom, no tight shower

Ascot is a hotel in a good location for us, as we needed to be near Im Mediapark. Lots of eating and drinking places nearby. The service was good. Sascha was amazing, and gave us fantastic recommendations for Koln. We felt at home. Thanks Sascha!

Decent hotel. Good location; ~ 15 minute walk from DOM Cathedral, right next to a lot of restaurants and nightclubs.

Location: 3 of 5 Room and cleanliness: 3.5 of 5 Common area: 2.5 of 5 Hotel Staff: overall 3 of 5, where front desk is 3.5 of 5 - they were courteous but did not explain about breakfast or wifi and house keeper is 2 of 5. House keeper was rude, kept knocking on door and did not tidy up room the first day, the 2nd day, she did not refill toilet and tissue paper and threw away my contact lenses and shower cap.

The photos for this place looked great, however, the room we got was apparently not updated like the rooms on the website. The decor was totally different and the bed frame had holes in it where something had apparently been screwed in but had fallen off. The night stand had a front wooden piece that fell apart at the touch. When we checked in we received a key card, only to get to our room and find a lock that required a regular key. The original key card lock had been removed and an older door knob was in its place. The room was ugly, the place was loud from other people, and the street was loud outside too. It comfortable enough if you’re in town on business and are a heavy sleeper but it’s nothing special.

Good location, nice facade, and great period like features inside. The breakfast was a buffer at 10-euros a head which seems good value when compared to others in the area.

This was an OK hotel because i had the minimums required for the two-day days in köln. I was extremely disappointed with the wi-Fi as it was limited sake mate thats god awful...second there werent no fridge in the hotel mate I have been in hostel that have had a fridge, were we in the 16th century Ascot? ...ok well my rant is over just like my stay...

The hotel is in a old building and the ground floor is not wide, but the room is excellent.

I have nothing bad to say about this hotel. Great staff, always ready to accommodate, no matter what we were asking for. Wonderfully comfortable beds, clean air-conditioned rooms. This hotel is conveniently situated: it's close enough to the train station, and only a 9 minutes walk from the city center. Wonderful restaurants in the area, all less than 7 minutes away.

Good hotel friendly staff

It was. Ice and clean and close to a lot of good restaurants. We got into town and we're able to check in early which was great!

My short trip to Koln was great, people were friendly and very helpful getting around walking was safe and not very busy

The hotel is in a perfect location. You can walk almost everywhere if you want to stay in the city. I stayed for two nights and every morning someone was trying to get to my room the first morning it was technical guys and the second it was cleaners at 8am. I complained about the first night and another morning I had the cleaners. I feel like they are a bit disorganized. Also there is a weird smell in the hallway. I visited this hotel because I was at a fair and the prices were far too high for what you get but I guess it's a normal price during this busy time in Cologne. Would I come back? Probably no. The room was clear and comfortable but not very warm.

Went during the fair on business. So room was not great value - but better than others. What made my stay was the reception team were excellent. They helped me sort many issues - taxis , shopping and restaurant bookings etc

The hotel is in a great location, near Friesenplatz, and close to dozens of restaurants and bars. Great night life in the surrounding area. A 2-minute walk from the Friesenplatz U-Bahn, which is directly connected to HBF (Central Station) by U-Line 5. The hotel looks grand from the outside. The room was a bit small but I guess thats standard for most European hotels.The front desk personnel were nice and friendly.

Friendly staff. This hotel is very accessible to shops and underground station.
