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. ##### Kyoko Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### André May 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Everything was okay ##### André Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Mar 2, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Ok The location is good (near metro and Gloria) but there’s an awful smell in reception (toilets, maybe). This was really annoying for me as check-in took ages - 2 guys behind the desk taking ages to check-in the party ahead of me. Shower was a bit mad and no deadlock on the door, so not sure I’d go back. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul Jun 13, 2024 #### 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 Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Robert Oct 7, 2024 #### Room without a view What a lousy room.The only view was of a roof covered in bird waste without any daylight ##### Robert Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Melanie Apr 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities . ##### Melanie Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Oct 15, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jenny Jun 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 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 Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Joost Nov 29, 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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 Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Orçun Aug 13, 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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 Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Andreas Aug 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### 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. ##### Andreas Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Frauke Sep 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Sehr gute Lage, gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, leider Schimmel in der Dusche ##### Frauke Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Majestic Colonial Punta Cana - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Majestic-Colonial-Punta-Cana-All-Inclusive.h1265372.Hotel-Information) > > [Motels Plattsburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Plattsburgh-Motels.d2816-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Best Western Plus Hotel Köln City](https://www.expedia.ca/Cologne-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Koln-City-West.h805820.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Ford Field](https://www.expedia.ca/Ford-Field-Hotels.0-l6058094-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Astoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Astoria-Hotels.d431.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Snoqualmie](https://www.expedia.ca/Snoqualmie-Hotels.d10013.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hyatt Regency Cartagena](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Cartagena.h15914053.Hotel-Information) > > [Suite Bizarre SM-Fetish Apartment Apartment](https://www.expedia.ca/Essen-Hotels-Suite-Bizarr-Sm-Fetisch-Apartment-Ferienwohnung.h48818202.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Cancún - A Karisma All-Inclusive Experience for All](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Margaritaville-Island-Reserve-Riviera-C.h38812307.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Narita (NRT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/nrt/vancouver-to-tokyo) > > [Flights from Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/178245/flights-from-calgary) > > [Flights from St. John's (YYT) to Manila (MNL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyt/mnl/st-johns-to-manila) > > [Flights from Los Angeles (LAX) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lax/lhr/los-angeles-to-london) > > [Flights from Kamloops (YKA) to Prince George (YXS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yka/yxs/kamloops-to-prince-george) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Perth (PER)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/per/vancouver-to-perth) > > [Flights from Vieux Fort (UVF) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/uvf/yyz/vieux-fort-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yvr/toronto-to-vancouver) > > [Flair Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Flair-Airlines-Flights.cF8.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Riga (RIX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/rix/edmonton-to-riga) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Calgary.d178245.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Coron](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Coron.d10497.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Hawaii](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Hawaii.d213.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Bora Bora](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/602861/Bora-Bora) > > [Egypt](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/52/Egypt) ### Vacation Rentals > [Williams Lake Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.ca/Williams-Lake-Vacation-Rentals.d4112.Travel-Guide-VacationRentals) ### General > [Visit Ubatuba](https://www.expedia.ca/Ubatuba.dx500209) > > [Visit The Loop](https://www.expedia.ca/Chicago-The-Loop.dx800024)
