Great location, an easy 5-minute walk to the main train station and cathedral (thanks to clear instructions provided by the hotel in advance). The rooms are cozy, very clean, and very comfortable. And the breakfast buffet is the best I had on my multi-city trip!

It backs onto a charming square filled with shops, restaurants, and cafes, and it's right next to the historic City Hall, giving you that authentic Cologne atmosphere right outside your door. Our room was clean, quiet, and very comfortable—exactly what you want after a long day of sightseeing. But what truly made our stay memorable was the incredible staff. We had the pleasure of interacting with Francisco and Kai, both of whom went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Their customer service was outstanding—no request was too much, and they always greeted us with a smile. Breakfast was another highlight! A great spread overall, but the made-to-order omelettes were especially delicious and worth waking up for. All in all, this hotel was a perfect home base for our time in Cologne.

The only negative is that there is no elevator. They will help with the luggage but it will be difficult with someone with mobility issues.

We were invited to their social hour which included free drinks and Christmas biscuits. The room was excellent and had a kettle, which is unusual in Europe. We also had a fridge. Just around the corner from the nearest Christmas market, and just a 10 minute walk from the train station. Breakfast was excellent. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff in this small city hotel. ##### Wendy Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Four Points Flex by Sheraton Bochum](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Essen-Hotels-GHOTEL-Hotel-Living-Bochum.h34173789.Hotel-Information) > > [Garner Hotel Bochum by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Essen-Hotels-Acora-Bochum-Living-The-City.h44994.Hotel-Information) > > [Belmont Classic](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bonn-Hotels-Black-Hotels-Bonn.h38390375.Hotel-Information) > > [V8 Hotel Köln](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cologne-Hotels-V8-Hotel-Koeln-At-Motorworld.h67278702.Hotel-Information) > > [Mövenpick Hotel Münster am Aasee](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Munster-Hotels-Movenpick-Hotel-Munster.h12625.Hotel-Information) > > [IntercityHotel Duisburg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Essen-Hotels-IntercityHotel-Duisburg.h15765819.Hotel-Information) > > [Jugendherberge Köln-Deutz City- Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cologne-Hotels-Jugendherberge-Koln-Deutz-City-Hostel.h4478510.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Royal Hotel Cologne Bonn Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cologne-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-Hotel-Cologne-Airport.h91338704.Hotel-Information) > > [Heiner's Parkhotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Essen-Hotels-Heiners-Parkhotel.h5083651.Hotel-Information) > > [SMARTY Cologne Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cologne-Hotels-SMARTY-Cologne-Downtown.h37628315.Hotel-Information) > > [INA Hotel Royal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cologne-Hotels-Centro-Hotel-Royal.h658912.Hotel-Information) > > [Numa Cologne Ehrenfeld ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cologne-Hotels-Joyn-Cologne.h45703345.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Kö59 Düsseldorf - Member of Hommage Luxury Hotels Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dusseldorf-Hotels-Hotel-Ko59-Dusseldorf-Member-Of-Hommage-Luxury-Hotels-Collection.h1338184.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Oberhausen Neue Mitte Affiliated by Meliá](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Essen-Hotels-Hotel-Oberhausen-Neue-Mitte-Affiliated-By-Melia.h48446.Hotel-Information) > > [Suite Bizarre SM-Fetish Apartment Apartment](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Essen-Hotels-Suite-Bizarre-SM-Fetish-Apartment-Apartment.h48818202.Hotel-Information) > > [Ruby Ella Hotel Cologne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cologne-Hotels-Ruby-Ella-Hotel-Cologne.h60538432.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Dortmund](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dortmund-Hotels-Leonardo-Hotel-Dortmund.h38504581.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Düsseldorf Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dusseldorf-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-DUSSELDORF-AIRPORT.h83390091.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Royal Hotel Düsseldorf Königsallee](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dusseldorf-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-Hotel-Dusseldorf-Konigsallee.h9509.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hotel Duisburg City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Essen-Hotels-Mercure-Hotel-Duisburg-City.h2398.Hotel-Information) > > [Refugium de Luxe Köln](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cologne-Hotels-Refugium-De-Luxe-Boardinghouse-MesseDeutz.h28945954.Hotel-Information) > > [Premier Inn Köln City Mediapark](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cologne-Hotels-AZIMUT-Hotel-Cologne.h2131012.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Stadt Muenchen](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dusseldorf-Hotels-Hotel-Stadt-Munchen.h1768229.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Düsseldorf City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dusseldorf-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Duesseldorf.h70920337.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Düsseldorf City Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dusseldorf-Hotels-Leonardo-Hotel-Dusseldorf-City-Center.h9545.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hotel Hagen](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dortmund-Hotels-Mercure-Hotel-Hagen.h9564.Hotel-Information) > > [TRIBE Düsseldorf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dusseldorf-Hotels-IntercityHotel-Dusseldorf.h990414.Hotel-Information) > > [Park-Lodge Am Rohrbusch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Munster-Hotels-Am-Rohrbusch-Motel-Mit-Charme.h41907386.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Köln](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cologne-Hotels-Leonardo-Hotel-Koln.h526101.Hotel-Information) ---
