We really enjoyed this hotel. It is ideally located on a beautiful square. We were able to travel on foot almost at all times to visit. We were warmly welcomed by the staff. The room was a little bit smaller than we expected.  …

Stayed here for 4 nights. Room small but big enough and well equipped. A decent size bathroom with a good shower. Buffet breakfast has hot and cold options sufficient for most people. They really need to get a better toaster! …

Excellent Location, right in the heart of Cologne Old Town. Room is big and clean. Good breakfast.The only issue I was facing is the sofa bed for the 3rd person, the couch can't be flattern, a bit difficult to sleep on even for a 12 yos child.

Welcoming, friendly and helpful staff.Hotels location is perfect.Hotel is clean & modern. Rooms amenities are good.Breakfast is fine, but the hot selection is small and doesn’t change at all - we were staying for a week and so this became rather repetitive very quickly.
