Not a bad place however windows are thin and its very noisy. My room was not like in the pictures or advertisement i had not kitchenette. We checked in very late so please be aware that there was a surcharge here. 10 euro for every hour after midnight. I would also say hotel was poor at getting back to me as i wrote them and email saying i was checking in late and would this be a problem i got no response. So had to call them in the end. But the room itself was ok. It was in a great location for the town centre.

Nice but we expected more
The beds are good. The street is calm. The staff is nice and speaks english atop of german. The Phantasia Land shuttle is near. The parking (10 euros per night) is not far, but is a bit difficult with 5 meters cars. There was no key for the bathroom, which is accessible from either two separate rooms, thus we had to make rules ( knock on door before entering the bathroom/toilet ). The two satellite tv’s are not very good, and they are not smart tv’s which for that price i’ve expected, so don’t think about using your Netflix account during your stay. The hotel announces sauna and jacuzzi, but there’s only sauna until 10pm. My daughters tell me a woman used a key to open their door and asked if the stay was pleasant, my daughters did not put the do not disturb sign on the door, that might explain. Overall the price for the stay was okay considering Germany is expensive compared to other places in the world.

We really enjoyed our 2 night stay at the Balthasar Neumann. They worked with us to address an issue with our ability to check in during the standard hours. The family rooms that we had were wonderfully large and comfortable -- I actually regret not having more time in the room! The area around the hotel has many pedestrian-focused streets and available cafes etc. The station is about a 15 minute from the station without luggage -- allow a little longer if you are pulling bags along the brick sidewalks and roads.

Easy check in process although the room is in a separate location to the reception. Staff were friendly. Clean room. Walls were paper thin and floorboards above very squeeky. Our neighborhs upstairs were very loud between 0200/0400 and kept us awake. However this noise was not the fault of the hotel.

Alright
Hotel staff are nice enough. Room and private bathroom looked nice but the bed was very hard and uncomfortable. Struggled to sleep due to that and the fact it was so hot but couldn't have the windows open because other guests where on the decking below our window making quiet abit of noise.

The staff was very welcoming. I think they went beyond a normal service to make sure the guest found their room and a place to park. The room I had had a couple of minor annoyances but this place is perfect for somewhere to sleep for the night. Dislikes: the room I had was small and the shower track was misaligned; allowing water to slip through the cracks. Nevertheless, you can walk to the bus station that takes you straight to Phantasialand (3 euros per person round trip).

If the room wasn't so hot, I would of liked staying here. I wouldn't recommend staying here during the summer months unless you are able to reserve the rooms with AC.

Great family stay
The hotel room was great. There was plenty of space and everything was clean. The check-in was good and the receptionist provided information on the area and the local transportation system. The only issue for improvement is that the hotel amenities lists an airport shuttle but this is incorrect.

Close enough to Cologne
The place is quite basic but overall decent. The room had some plumbing issues, as water gurgling can be heard. Ground floor room can also be quite noisy from the traffic outside. Hotel is close to train and U-bahn so it is handy to get to Cologne.

Perfect location and affordable
Very easy to check in at the restaurant and a short walk to our building within a central location ideal for visiting Phantasialand. Room was very modern and clean. Only downside was lack of kettle and the street outside was slightly noisy but not the hotels fault. The man that checked us in S poke English very well which was also ideal. Taxi to the airport was £50-60 from the taxi rank a short walk away.

Great location. Shower drain MUST be fixed.
All was ok except for the bathroom shower drain. The drain was very very slow in draining the shower water so the dirty water would sit there for a two minutes which is not good when you are trying to take a shower to get clean.

Comfy apartment for reasonable price
Great location (difficult to get via auto due to traffic restrictions). Decor and finishes were dated, but in fine repair. Kitchenette was well equipped, but we didn't use. Great for families as there were two bedrooms. Quick drive Phantasialand. I would stay here again. The hotel is not located in the yellow building pictured on the Expedia website.

Wir hatten eine Nacht gebucht, um aufgrund der weiten Anreise eine Nacht in der Nähe von Köln unter zu kommen, da wir am nächsten Tag die Fibo besucht hatten. Der Preis war für diese Zeit ok, da die Preise allgemein höher sind, wenn Fibo ist. Der Empfang war auch in Ordnung, so viel hatten wir aber auch nicht mit ihnen zu tun. Nun zu der Erklärung der Bewertung: Sauberkeit: - die Dusche war noch triefend nass und wies Schimmel auf, der Duschkopf funktionierte, aber es spritzte aus allen Richtungen - der Boden war sehr dreckig - die Fernbedienung und der Tisch haben geklebt - die Steckdosen waren sehr verstaubt - das Bett war in Ordnung Zustand der Einrichtung: - altmodisch aber für eine Nacht ok - Eine abgeschlossene Türe, die ins nirgendwo führt, macht einen unsicheren Eindruck - keine funktionierende Belüftung im Bad - Eingangstüre wie Kellertüre, Licht knallt morgens voll aufs Bett, keine Möglichkeit der Abdunkelung - Schlüssel sollte im Zimmer liegen gelassen und die Außentüre zugezogen werden, lies sich aber immer noch öffnen, sehr suspekt Umgebung: - Zimmer war im Hinterhof in einem Keller - Baustelle direkt vor der Türe - die Gäste darüber haben getrampelt wie Elefanten - ständiges Piepen aus dem verschlossenen Nebenraum, gehen von Waschmaschine oder Spülmaschine aus, sehr nervig - Fußgängerzone mit dm, Netto, Bäcker - einziger positiver Aspekt - nah am Parkplatz Belverde Brühl, fußläufig 5 Minuten Für eine Nacht echt in Ordnung, kommen aber nie wieder.

Das Frühstückspersonal war sehr freundlich und aufmerksam, jedoch hätten wir es besser gefunden frische Brötchen zu bekommen ( waren aufgebackene Brötchen) für 12.90 € pro Person. Zimmer ist etwas ins alter gekommen und könnte liebevoller eingerichtet werden. Parkplatz für 10€, würden 5 € auch reichen. Aber allem in allem war es ein angenehmer Aufenthalt

Tolles Zimmer gewesen mit kleinem Balkon. Durch die Zentrale Lage hat man so viele möglichkeiten essen zu gehen oder abends ne Stadt runde zu drehen. Bis zum Bahnhof sind es gerade einmal 11 Minuten langsamer Fußmarsch. War ein toller Aufenthalt!
