This was a perfect place to stay the night while enjoying the city's many different christmas markets. It is perfectly situated beside one of the markets which made it easy for us to take a break in our room, use the washroom and drop off packages. This simple little hotel had everything we needed for a night in Cologne.

Nice hotel

I´ve stayed at this nice hotel several times, and really enjoy the comfort and location. Although, this time, my room was never cleaned/made during the 3 nights stay. Maybe sustainability, I don´t know.

It's in a wonderful little square, and close to the train and popular attractions. it was a little loud, and no AC as far as I saw so windows open means you're getting up when the area becomes crowded and loud, and staying up as late as the area is still crowded, which means midnight.

OK, but overpriced

Check in experience was very poor, automated machine. Room was clean, bathroom was updated and nice. However I find it very poor to spent > EUR 200/night to have no TV channels available and no heating a bit overpriced

Great location with some updates

The hotel is in a great location for the Christmas markets. It's above a restaurant, which is where breakfast is served. Our room has a magnificent view of the market, and it had an updated bathroom. The bed and linens were comfortable and pristine. The hotel overall feels a little dated, but part of that is the sparse decoration. I needed ice for a cooler which the restaurant downstairs kindly provided. I tried to order a beer to bring back to the room from the restaurant, but that wasn't an option.
