A very comfortable stay for my daughter and I in Cologne. Our room was large and quiet. Comfy beds and pillows. Roomy bathroom and nice to be able to make a cup of tea or coffee. Nice green touch to offer a drink for no servicing. Very friendly staff. Nice touch to send up a birthday cake.

A bit disappointed that there was no air conditioning, only hot air coming out, I did call reception and they said cool air only available in the summer, never heard of this before. The room was very warm when I arrived so had to open window which is extremely noisy with vehicles so not practical to do overnight. Also the window opens fully which could be dangerous. Otherwise the room was lovely with window closed it is reasonably quiet although you do hear when neighbour is turning off lights in their room.

Wonderful breakfast. Helpful staff. Nice free drink for not having room cleaned idea. Easy to access 3 of the Christmas markets and public transport. Room 102 was a little noisy. It also lacked a bath and I had booked a room that had a bath listed.

Really enjoyed this property, was an easy walk to many of Cologne’s landmarks, shopping and restaurants. My one complaint would be with the pillows, which were terrible, flat and no support might as well have not had one. Would we stay again, only if they get better pillows or at least ones that are not ready for the trash can
