Location and nice staff. Very basic. Bad smell in both rooms (different smell in each!). No safe. No coffee-making facilities in rooms. Very little tourist info available in hotel. Internet access ridiculously expensive.

Very clean and comfortable room. Excellent staff, always tried their very best to help, very friendly also. Breakfast was good, with a good choice. They also make you fresh eggs, sausage and bacon on request. Good for children ad there's a lift. The lift us s bit small to fit the pram and two adults but we managed. Overall, an excellent stay. Will def be going back.

I booked three double room for myself and two girlfriends. The location for the Christmas Markets was perfect. Having the cathedral so close by was brilliant and we were also close to the superb shopping area. The staff were so helpful and polite, speaking excellent english which helped us! Our rooms were very comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed breakfast. We would definitely recommend The Senats Hotel Koln.

The location was amazing... Less than 2 blocks from the Dom, train station, and tourist information office. Included breakfast was very good and the price was so cheap (76 euros for double room) for such a close place. The rooms were large and had a nice bathroom. Staff was extremely polite and helpful and spoke wonderful English. This place is close to shopping and lots of restaurants and bars too, all walking distance. I can't say anything bad about this place, I would definitely stay here again.

Location and possibilty to cancel my reservation after first night. I did't like the hotel at all. First they advertise free internet than you get 1 hour free and next hour is 8 eur. I took comfort room that included free use of minibar. And there was 1 water, 1 limonade and 1 beer. Hotel had 4 stars 20 years ago. Today they can have enough guest just because of very good location so their goal is to get as much money from everyone since they know nobody will return. Upside was I was able to cancel my reservation after first night, so I changed my hotel and enyojed my stay in Cologne anyway. Avoid.

Good location - very handy for Koln Hbt train station on the Dom. Very nice buffet breakfast too I do object to paying for internet at any hotel. The prices here are far too high - €14 for 3 hours. Also, I have stayed here many times over the past few years and the rooms are in need of renovation. The rooms are very clean and tidy tho.

- free minibar (but not much: 2 colas, 2 water, 2 biers, 2 lemonades) - cleanish room - breakfast was great!!! - perfect location: right next to the cathedral - friendly staff - tiny bathroom with shower - old (the rooms need to be reniewed if they wanna keep the prices) - max. 3 stars worth it - not worth it for the money we payed (124 euros for 1 night in a double room). we stayed in Köln another day in a 3 stars hotel which was 10 times better! - no free wifi - annoying TV (turned off and on every 1 or 2 minutes and only in German)

My stay was made so comfortable by the staff since my luggage had been lost! They upgraded me to a junior suite and gave me a robe and slippers. I would most certainly return to the Senats and will recommend to anyone traveling to Cologne!

I liked that parking was available in an enclosed area and how close the hotel was to many sight seeing venues. Overall, we enjoyed our hotel stay, however the bed in our room was quite uncomfortable. The mattress was very thin and not supported very well. I did not sleep very well that night and the next morning, both my husband and I had aching pain in our back and neck area.

The Senats Hotel is all we needed for our Köln Visit, its a basic hotel just somewhere for us to lay our heads after a day out in the city. If you want to do more than just sleep in it then stay somewhere else. The hotel receptionists were great. Rooms were clean, and included in the room price is a mini bar (great). Bathrooms had shower only, but included soaps, shampoos, conditioner and hair dryer. The hotel is very central to everything I.e 5-10 walk to either Köln train station or the main shopping streets or Köln Cathedral. It is an ideal base for all the Christmas markets. We will definately stay again. We would have liked a tea tray in the room, but the free mini bar made up for that short coming. Although the bed was a double it was made up with single size sheets and quilt covers which was a bit annoying, (Other German hotels did similar we have stayed in, must the the German way) Breakfast was adequate, but I would have liked a bit more substance to the cooked menu.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, with 2 small children this is very important. All requests were dealt with quickly and with a smile. The location is perfect for the Christmas markets and restaurants. It is a shame there is no bar area. There were 8 of us in total using 3 rooms but no meeting area.

The location was excellent, with all the tourist attractions and shopping areas in easy walking distance. 2 car parks were also in close proximity. The staff were friendly and helpful. The inclusive breakfast was plentiful and well presented. Beds were comfortable and the rooms being soundproof so it was easy to get a good nights sleep. The corridors were very clinical and could do with redecorating. The drainage system should be investigated as in the corridor on the 3rd. Floor of south wing there was always a smell of sewage, however this did not affect the bedrooms.

We visited Cologne for the Christmas Markets. As we were doing the trip on a bit of a budget this hotel was at the cheaper end, however it can not be faulted for being very warm, clean, comfortable and roomy. All the staff were friendly and very helpful, speaking good English. The breakfast was included and was a selection of cereals, breads, meats, cheeses, yogurts, juices and the option to have bacon, sausage and egg if you desire. A Minibar in your room is also included and restocked everyday which was a nice touch. The location is perfect, right in the centre, 200m to the Cathedral, plenty of restaurants and pubs/bars in the vicinity, For the price we paid this hotel was excellent value. Only one thing I can pick up on is the cleaners started very early in the morning and on two occasions we were woken up at 8am with them knocking on the door. May I suggest you put the 'Do Not Disturb' sign out before you go to sleep if your not planning on getting up too early. I noticed them hanging on pretty much every door on our floor so I think this may be a regular thing.
