to get started.

Location, location, location! Very central and close to everything we wanted to see and do. Excellent advice on restaurants in the area. Staff (we mostly dealt with Michael) very very helpful. Good breakfast.

Marylee, United States of America

Hotel was very close to the train station & sights of Cologne.

Alison, United States of America

Beautiful property with excellent staff. Great location. Superb breakfast.

Robert, United States of America

Just off the beaten path, this boutique hotel offers comfortable, clean, and unfussy rooms, modern bathrooms, and a wonderfully long breakfast hour—or three. The staff is friendly and obliging, and we were well taken care of. The views from the junior suite on the Cologne Dom are breathtaking!

Elisabeth, United States of America

Almost impossible to find any fault here. Location next to Rathaus and bustling plaza is wonderful; an easy walk from the train station & cathedral, too. Still quiet as it is in narrow side street. Very well thought-out guest room with everything provided and beautifully arranged. Great breakfast with ample seating and reasonable hours to enjoy it. Staff go above and beyond with both courtesy and helpfulness. Truly a perfect ten. I'll stay here again any time I come to Köln.

Willol, United States of America

Staff very friendly and helpful. Gave a tour of the breakfast buffet, which was excellent for us. Many healthy options including cut fruit, fresh smoothie, nuts. French toast excellent and homemade butter delicious. Location couldn't be beat, in old city centre near plaza with lots of restaurants and very close to cathedral. About 1 mile walk for good shopping. Room was clean and had everything we needed. Somewhat small, but all in all a great value.

Janet, United States of America

The breakfast and the location are awesome! It is great to have breakfast at the hotel prior to hitting the streets of downtown Cologne. The small size and friendly staff were also great. There are a lot of good restaurants nearby and the staff is great at helping you avoid the tourist traps.

Eric, United States of America

Very good breakfast with eggs made to order. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Timothy, United States of America

A cosy Bed and Breakfast with a friendly welcome, modern facilities, and view on the dome and Christmas Market—you can’t do better! The hosts are kind and obliging, and we felt cared for and comfortable.

Elisabeth, United States of America

Perfect location. Our room was small but very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was outstanding. And best of all was the staff. Every staff member was friendly and helpful. Bottom line - we won’t look for any other hotel when we return to Cologne.
