We were looking for some reasonable priced accommodation while staying in Cologne since the prices were really high. We found this hotel and I have to say that it's location is really good. The room is old furnished but clean. …

Helenenwall is a small pension located in an older, quiet, residential neighborhood in Deutz. It is across the street from a small park. We felt very comfortable on the street at night. …

We spend a few days in Cologne and this was our B&B for the first night. The check in took good 15min but there were no problems whatoever. There is a car park under a bridge some 100m away - 3Eur a day and from 6pm it's free. …

Very close to the river, bridges and busy centre, but in a very quiet area. We rented the apartment on the top floor with a great view. Everything we need was in the kitchen. The only complaint was that you cant shower more than 5 or so minutes, then the water pressure is basically gone.

I stayed here 3 nights in early November. I chose the pension for its proximity to Koln Messe, where I was attending the World Cyber Games.  …

We spent two nights in this B&B. The room was a bit old-fashioned and small but offered all we needed. The breakfast tasted good and had enough choice for many tastes. Friendly and a bit shy owner. Certainly a good place to stay if you wish to be a bit out of the busy crowd in the center.

I was 8 nighs with a colleague and the conclusion was an excelent compensation for our money.||The room is small but very confortable. The toilette is bigger than our expectation for the category. The neighborhood is very quite and safe.||The remarcable points was the breakfast and the attention.
