Hostel die Wohngemeinschaft

Neustadt-Süd, Cologne

This hostel is located in the heart of Cologne’s trendy Belgian Quarter, 2 km from Cologne Cathedral and the Rhine Embankment. Hostel die Wohngemeinschaft offers free Wi-Fi and design interiors.

Hostel die Wohngemeinschaft is a 2-minute walk from Moltkestraße Underground Station and a 4-minute walk from Rudolfplatz Underground Station. Cologne Main Station can be reached in under 10 minutes on foot. This was one of my best Hostel experiences, if not the best. The hostel is in a vivacious neighborhood, with shops, cafes, restos nearby, plus a wonderful city park with lots of green. The staff is extremely kind and competent. I stayed in the ballet room, which was my secret wish before check-in. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable and big. All other guests were respectful, which not only meant the maximum silence possible in the room but also that we left the bathroom clean. All in all, highly recommended!
