Price misleading.The room was clean. Location is perfect and staff is very friendly, as advertised. I ended up going on my trip while it was forecasted to be probably one of the hottest days this year. There’s no AC in the room, but the day before, they purchased fans and put them in all the rooms. I found this to be a kind and thoughtful gesture.Some small problems I had were that the shower curtain is ridiculously too small for the shower, and thus water goes everywhere every time one takes a shower. Also, there was no fresh fruit in the room as advertised, but I saw some downstairs that was maybe free, I never asked. Also, one time when I came back to the room after it had been cleaned it reeked of B.O., so maybe the cleaner could stand to have a bit better hygiene. There is no fridge, microwave, or phone in the room. There is a pitifully small selection of channels on the tv. When I arrived, for whatever reason they had it on their system that my trip had been booked starting the next day. Thankfully, I had taken a screenshot of my reservation and the problem was resolved. As I never received a confirmation email, I would advise everyone to do the same.However, I consider all of these problems to be quite forgivable, and are not the reason for my rating. The reason for my rating is that the prices are misleading. When I booked, I think it was 58€ a night, and I stayed for six nights, 58x6=348€. However, somehow my stay ended up being 818€. Even with taxes, I don’t know how they arrived at this number. I should’ve paid attention more when I booked. Otherwise, this room would have been worth what the original price advertised, and I would have given it a higher rating. It’s a cute hotel with a great staff and location.

DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL. ITS A SCAM. |We arrived at 11pm to find the hotel closed with no signs of life at all. We tried to contact them using the number provided but it was no longer connected. …

We learned upon arrival that our family Appartment is not usable and were rebooked into a nearby hotel. That hotel room we ended up in had bunk beds and was not comparable to what we booked. …

Nice room, quiet and very convenient! The bar downstairs was warm and cozy after the winter rain. I'd stay here again, definitely. My only issue is the bathroom window wouldn't close so that room was so cold. The rest of the hotel was fantastic.

Worst holiday accommodation EVER. Under no circumstances, do NOT book to stay in the Domspatz City Apartment via Dom Hotel Am Romerbrunnen on Booking.com. We arrived at 8pm and couldn't get into the hotel to check-in, it had closed. Rang Booking.com to be told to access our key from a keysafe - not what our check-in instructions had said. We were then given rubbish verbal directions to the apartment. It is not in an apartment block, even though there is one called Domspatz City apartments. You enter through the back of a kebab shop, past the kitchen and store room, up 4 flights of tiny stairs with no lift (great with suitcases for a family of 5 for a fortnight's holiday), to what can only be described as a bedsit.The shower is in the hall behind a curtain. The "lounge" contains 4 chairs and 4 single beds - not suitable for families at all. There were no glasses or bowls in the kitchen. The ridiculously loud noise (shouting) from the kebab and pizza shops below, plus the music from bars close by, plus drunk homeless people gathering on the street corner and arguing carried on until 4.30am. There were 2 adults and 3 kids. We had been travelling since 4am that morning and needed to sleep.What is worse, is that the cathedral (100m away) started ringing the bells at 7.30am the next day.... for hours. Even if you had gone with friends and stayed up drinking, you wouldn't want to be woken up to that. We literally couldn't stay so checked out THREE DAYS EARLY. We lost all our money (600 euro), that is how bad it was. NEVER, EVER STAY HERE. When we checked out they offered to swap us into a different apartment, but there was no way we could stay. It was awful. I don't have a photo, but if you look it up on Google streetview, the entrance is via the Istanbul kebab shop and the apartment is the top floor windows (4th floor) above the kebab shop... NOT the apartment block next door. (Which would have been equally as noisy to be honest. Drunk, homeless people gather to drink on the street corner).

The apartment itself wasn't in the same building as the reception, thank god we didn't have to walk far. They were very inflexible with the check in time and was quite rude about it. The lift in the building doesn't reach our floor so we had some trouble getting the luggage upstairs. Most of the things in the apartment was labelled " out of order". The only good thing was that it's fairly close to the Central station. Definitely not worth the money though.

For the most part, we really enjoyed our stay. The beds and pillows were very hard and uncomfortable. I don't mind firm, but this was to an extreme. The apartment was nicely decorated, and clean. The shower could have used more attention, as there was mold in the corners . The breakfast was well worth the price, and there was a large selection for everyone's taste. The location is perfect for exploring Cologne, and we will definitely be back. I would recommend this hotel to anyone! The service, the care, and the accommodations were very much appreciated.
