Improvements urgently necessary
One of the two elevators (both from 1988) was out of order. Apparently since 3 months. Rooms felt damp. Strange smell in the foyer.

Cologne short break
Hotel very comfortable and renovations ongoing during stay. Bathroom door was disintegrating with the damp and wouldn’t shut properly. Some noise from the local bars - we were on the sixth floor and it didn’t bother us but would be different with small children. Great location with a private car park and walking distance from the city centre.
Paul, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel is located very nice place and very comfortable for finding restaurants. Bath room is bit tidy...but it is clean. Just one point table lamp has missing lamp itself... Breakfast is so nice and comfortable leve. We have enjoyed very much.

10/10 Exceptional

We liked the overall impression of room 219 as well as being a bit at the back of the building and the view of the yoga building... however there were smokers downstairs outside so smoke got in even with the windows closed.
Jenny, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Back in time
The hotel looked better in the pictures than in real life. It was extremely dated and it was like the soul of the place had left the building. Very 80 Thies rundown and truly a bit smelly. 2 lights where not working in the room and the beds where way or soft . For this price you find a way better place. Although the staff kept smiling so thank you for that.
Joost, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The hotel dates from the time when Bismarck was living, extremely outdated and damaged furniture. The tiles in the bathroom are 20x20cm, even social projects have more modern bathrooms. The room has no airco while it was 34 degrees. The toilet doesn't flush with any power and the pillow was empty, you could also leave out the pillow from the rooms? The only good thing is the location and an airconditioned reception, otherwise a terrible hotel.
Orçun, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Mediocre and too hot
Location of the hotel is good, close to a lot of good bars (I definitely recommend 'Woods' across the street for some unique cocktails) and restaurants. About ten minutes walk to the train station. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was okay - great bacon though. The shampoo and soap had excellent scent. Unfortunately, the hotel looks old and tired. There is a strange smell in the lobby and the corridors. Our room looked very old and the pillows were way too soft, so we had to use two. Cologne was quite hot during our stay but there was no AC and they didn't even have any fans to offer. Some black mold in the bathroom and you could loudly hear others flushing and using their bathroom faucet - like seriously it could go on forever non-stop, very annoying. Also carpets all over the corridors and room. Overall I'm questioning the 4 star rating because it all felt very basic, even below standard.
