Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were nice and clean, but the temperature inside was uncomfortably hot, even in May. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff being unfriendly and unhelpful while others were quite pleasant. The location, right next to Cologne train station, was very convenient for traveling by train and exploring the Christmas markets, but the immediate surroundings were not very welcoming. The dining options were decent, although not exceptional. Overall, a stay with highs and lows.

The hotel is conveniently located right beside the Central station, making it perfect for travelers arriving by train. The rooms are cozy and offer ample comfort, although I missed having a small bar or kettle for hot drinks. The service was mostly friendly and helpful, although there was one unfortunate incident where a staff member shouted rudely at my friend, which was quite unpleasant. The dining experience was varied and pleasing, offering a decent selection of choices. Overall, a convenient stay with minor drawbacks.

The hotel's location is very convenient for the railway but noisy due to its proximity to one of the busiest train stations in Europe. The rooms are old-fashioned, nothing special, and suffer from extremely poor soundproofing that is impacted by the station noise. The service provided was friendly and always eager to assist, making us feel at home instantly. Despite some challenges, including an expensive but good dining experience and a lift out of action for three days, the hotel's prime location next to Koln train station can be a bonus for those seeking budget accommodation in a central area.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room I stayed in had an Air Conditioner, but it smelled damp and like smoke, making it feel like it was only worth about £50 per night. Sadly, there was no fridge or coffee making facilities, and the room was quite cramped for two people. On the bright side, the overall quality was good.

The hotel location is both its best and worst feature, being right next to the train station, providing great access but also noise. The rooms, although not spacious, were comfortable despite some noise from the bus terminal below. The service was unprofessional and impolite, detracting from the overall experience. The dining, however, was excellent with a nice variety of fresh options.

The hotel is overall good but has some drawbacks. The rooms, while clean, are small and designed more for single occupancy. I was surprised by an additional charge of €15 for city tax, which I hadn't encountered elsewhere in Germany. The service, especially at the reception, was not as cooperative as I had hoped. The location, although perfect for accessing Christmas markets and amenities, was noisy due to the nearby train station. The dining options were good but not without issues like slow replenishing of hot items. Despite some shortcomings, the hotel offers a convenient location for exploring the city.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The room, although facing the train terminal, was better than expected and very clean. However, it was unfortunately too noisy due to the location. I recommend asking for a room on the opposite side for a quieter experience. The hotel's proximity to the train station and city center was convenient, but the room was very hot during my stay.
