A small boutique hotel about 6mins walk from main station on quiet side of town. There are a few steps from street to reception entry. There is a tiny lift that can fit two person or one person with a suitcase. …

We stayed there 3 nights and we really loved it! The hotel has really nice spacious rooms, comfy beds and is spotlessly clean. It's also really close to the train station, cathedral and centre of Cologne.An extra bonus is definitely the super tasty breakfast and friendly staff!

I have never been to a hotel where there was no staff present in the evening and had to collect the keys. It is interesting what COVID has done. …

Not the greatest hotel but to be expected at a decent price .. check in was good with automatic code for the safe to get the keys.Room was very small and no air con but there was a little fan which didn’t help so much in the heat. Sink was in the room next to the bed and the power cable was not really accessible so I had to unplug the lamp to move it next to the bed..Breakfast was okay , prepared by a nice welcoming lady and a small but okay “continental” style selectionWould recommend for short stays only

This hotel has a great location, near the Dom, but in a quiet street. I was so impressed with how clean it is. The house looks beutiful from the outside. The rooms are a bit small. …
