Cologne Hotels with Bars

Extremely satisfied with this hotel. Cleanliness: Spotless, both the room and the lobby. Service: Very warm and helpful. Our car was a bit too tall for the parking garage, and the staff helped us resolve the issue. Environment: Very close to the city center, only about a 10-minute walk to the cathedral.

Location is perfect for traveling on the train, the room was clean and nice. If you want any disposable items, you need to ask for them on the reception, also extra 50 euros for a deposit from credit card. At night the doors are closed and the front desks are empty, so you need to use your card to enter the building. Feels a little bit overpriced for such room, but in general it’s not bad

The room was spacious, and they had already made up the beds and laid out the bath towels and regular towels for our triple room. The breakfast selection was also very rich, with boiled eggs, fried eggs, bread, milk, and smoked salmon. The staff were exceptionally polite and cleared plates very promptly. The only downside was that the showerhead in the bathroom couldn't be raised as the holder was broken. The most significant drawback was that the hotel is right next to a railway line, and the noise from the subway and cars hitting speed bumps on the highway was incredibly loud. A subway train passed every two to three minutes, starting before 6 AM, which made it very difficult to get a good night's sleep and negatively impacted our enjoyment of the rest of our trip.

Everything was great. The sauna and pool were good, but the room was cold at night even with the heating turned up all the way.

The biggest advantage of this hotel is its proximity to the Central Station and the Cathedral. Traveling with my child from Edinburgh to Cologne, our flight was delayed, plus a one-hour time difference, so by the time we got out of the train station, it was almost midnight. Luckily, the hotel was just a 5-minute walk away. Since our train was leaving at 2 PM the next day, I requested a 1 PM late check-out, which they granted. After a delicious and substantial breakfast (the hotel breakfast is great!), we headed to the Cathedral, which was just across the train station. The room size was significantly larger than similarly priced hotels I've stayed in the UK, which was a nice bonus.

When I was checking in, I was a little worried the staff would be unable to speak English. However the two receptionists who helped me were perfectly fluent and answered any questions I had. I did unfortunately have to pay a city tax on top of my room, but it wasn’t expensive and this is a common thing in most hotels in Europe. The room itself was pretty decent and had plenty of space for my suitcase and to walk around. The en-suite was great and had good towels and hot shower. The bed was comfy with a good mattress and duvet wise, but the pillows were a bit limp and didn’t have a lot in them. I spoke to another member of staff who spoke little English, who said he’d look and bring one to my room, but this never happened. Whatever the case, still had a good sleep, would have better with extra head comfort. As for breakfast, there was a great variety of choice from fry-up food (bacon, sausages, eggs) to continental pastries and drinks. I would say the only downside was there was not enough for fruit, as there was only a few apples and plates of sliced oranges. Would have been better if there was more to choose fruit wise, but everything else was great and was a good fuel up for the day in Cologne. When checking out, they also allowed me to place my luggage and bags in their storage room with zero charge which is great when you’re exploring for the day and have a later departure time. Overall, if you’re in Cologne for a day (like me) or two, this place is a great option and I would stay here again!

Struggled to get through to the hotel as the phone number on the app used to make booking was in correct. The hotel is easy to find and transport links from the airport I give a 10/10 plus connection to the city was super easy. Upon arrival, the service desk staff were pleasant and apologised. Finally checked in and the room was clean and well done. However, my room was facing the major road and extremely noisy during the entire stay as the road is a busy one.  Ordered a late dinner and disappointed with my under done beef patty, the bun it came with required an electric knife to get through. I did complain and an apology was given.  Now, the hotel room doors bang whenever they’re being closed and made my stay unbearable. Something definitely needs to be done as I was put off!! Before retiring to bed, I hung the notice to not be disturbed..alas! the following morning after breakfast I just wanted to have a quiet time but I was rudely interrupted, disturbed coupled with the loud doors as the cleaners went about their inspections 2 x in a space of 10 minutes.  I would have loved to stay here on future visits but it’s a NO!!  The breakfast was lovely, sauna and swimming pool facilities too. I did not use the gym. Otherwise it’s in a good safe location.

The location is perfect, only few minutes walk from the central station. The staff was also nice and friendly, enough support. And there is dryer available, which was nice. But overall, the room and corridor looks really like a prison or hospital, not at all giving the vibe of holiday stay... Luggage storage was available for free! we can store luggage until 11pm on the day of check out. There was no kitchen. There is locker OUTSIDE the room, which is so weird. We need to use our own padlock to lock the locker but most of them were occupied or not working (broken). Even with the padlock, it could be open easily so I did not use the locker. It seemed there is not enough number of lockers available compared to the number of the rooms and beds, at least lockers that are not broken. There is no curtain no privacy, even is a mixed gender room. It really feeled like a jail or something. The bedside light is too bright so that if one of us turn it on, the whole room could be bright enough, which is ridiculous. Also the sound proof was terrible that we can hear people outside singing, screaming and DJ-ing midnight, even with our windows and curtains closed. The sound of closing the door was so loud and the door seemed half broken. Also we could hear people talking in the corridor. The shower and toilet were also outside the room and they smelled so bad. Did not feel clean.

The location for me is perfect! It’s a nice place for many restaurants, bar and fun to do! Night shift staff Rumeysa was incredible! She is very helpful for solving problems! Bed room is clean and comfortable! Absolutely best hostels in Koln!

Great location and very near to tram. Room is relatively small and without kettle. Breakfast is average with basic.
