For the price options, indeed a cost-effective stay. The hotel is in the vicinity of the city center and the tram station is also nearby. The parking option offered with the hotel costs 22 euros per day which is reasonable considering the parking situation in the overall city, however if you are driving out the parking spot may be lost as there are hardly 30 parking spots here. We arrived around 1.5 hrs early and were charged 15 euros extra to check in early, which came as a surprise as that'snot mentioned anywhere on the website. The breakfast is fresh and worth it, although the same menu is the menu every day. Overall, a good environment and super clean rooms offer sustainable options of not cleaning the rooms every day to reduce carbon footprint and care for the planet.

We enjoyed our 4-night stay at this hotel while attending an event in Cologne. It was practical, good value for money, clean and comfortable. To our surprise, the Standard double room claiming to have a large double bed, we found the bed quite small for two people, but we managed. Hotel feels very modern and well kept. There is no fridge in the room but there is a kettle and some complimentary coffee and tea. There is a big grocery store nearby. Easy to reach from the main train station. Putting 3 stars for service as they didn’t seem well coordinated. Also our receptionist announced our room number out loud during check-in, which I believe goes against standard hotel practice. Overall we were satisfied.

Stayed here during an event at Cologne Fair. We found the room to be really well-maintained, modern, and clean, especially the bathroom. Plenty of conveniently located bedside plugs to charge devices. Nice low lighting for the evenings.Location is nice. There is a supermarket nearby, and you can reach the trade fair and the central station easily via trams. Only drawback is not too many restaurants in the immediate vicinity.Breakfast is...I mean, it's okay. But if the price is so high that you're cheaper off getting food at a convention, it's a bit questionable who the target audience is. It is way overpriced for what it is.Service is ok, we had no major problems, but it is a bit of a nuisance that you have to specifically ask for towels and to have any cleaning done to your room. We asked them to change the sheets once, and it was only done on the following day, even though they say it should be on the same day if notified until 12.As other reviews also note, service often seems to be disorganized, and that's really the main issue with the place. But from a standpoint of location and the rooms themselves, I would happily stay at this place again.

We have stayed at many Premier Inns in the UK but this was the first time in Germany. It did not disappoint. The room was well laid out and the beds very comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious and very enjoyable. The hotel is in the south so it’s about a kilometre from the Cathedral but we knew that going in.

A brief stopover between city breaks. Hotel clean and welcoming, feels and smells newly refurbished. Team extremely friendly and helpful. Rooms are small, especially if 3 person but the bathroom is generous. …

Front desk staff was really rude and a mess; they kept trying to add extra fees onto my reservation and then charged me the wrong amount of days even though I showed them the exact res and had it booked 7 months ago. …

Staff here were very welcoming and polite and had good local knowledge. The room itself was very clean and spacious. The hotel itself is around a 25 minute walk to cologne central station. Hotel was in a convenient place for us. If you don’t want to walk you can get the tram or an Uber to the station is around €7

This was my wife and I first time in Germany and our experience was amazing. Coming from the states, we are accustomed to getting mediocre services, but this place was great. The rooms were perfect, with great lighting and amazing good European space. Also, the staff was amazing. From the moment we checked-in, we were greeted with respect, especially by a young man named Chaquille. Chaquille is an amazing bartender who set the tone for our interactions with others. He pointed us in the right directions and made our experience more than what we could have expected. When my wife and I come back to Cologne, we, without a doubt, are staying at this hotel.

Very nice hotel, better than UK premier inns! Had plenty of usb ports which came in handy as my EU plug broke so I could use those to charge my things. The bathroom was a good size and the main part of the room wasn't huge but was okay for 1 person. The staff were lovely and the place felt clean and well looked after. It is also in a great location for the Lanxess arena, 3 ish stops in the tram which was about a 5 minute walk away.
