We were treated like family in this charming hotel on a quiet residential street. Breakfasts were excellent; our room was large and comfortable; and the location was conveniently within walking distance of the friend we were here to visit.

The staff are friendly and helpful and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The hotel is in a residential neighbourhood which has the advantage of being quiet. It's also within easy walking distance of a small neighbourhood that is trendy with lots of cafes, restaurants.

I had a very warm welcome by the staff, who were very friendly. The breakfast buffet was lovely. Even though the decor is somewhat dated it is very clean. The only real downside was the room could have done with a kettle.

Nothing special

Our first impression was awful as we spent 45 minutes convincing the receptionist we actually had a booking, even getting hotels.com involved. When she finally gave us our room it was the wrong one and there was no apology, just the impression we were imposing on her. In fact, all staff I encountered were rude and suspicious. The room was ok, though 2 single beds put together to make a double and very dated furniture. I wouldn't stay again.

Die Einrichtung ist zwar etwas älter, aber gut erhalten. Das Badezimmer wurde bereits modernisiert. Sehr positiv war das freundliche Personal beim Check-in /-out und beim Frühstück. Einen Stern Abzug gibt es für die Parkplatzsituation und das Frühstück: Das Buffet war in Ordnung, für 22 € p.P. aber etwas mager bzw. sehr einfach gehalten, Die Anreise ist etwas umständlich, da man vor dem Hotel nicht kurz zum Einchecken halten kann bzw. darf wegen Halte-oder Parkverbot. Es gibt zwar wie auf der Hotel Website beschrieben, Ausweichparkplätze bzw. ein Parkhaus, welches 5–10 Min zu Fuss entfernt ist. Dieses ist pro Tag jedoch teurer als die Hotelparkplätze. Trotz der kleinen Kritikpunkte würden wir sicher wiederkommen.

Klein, fein und mit guter Preis-Leistung

Ein kleines aber feines Hotel in Köln-Ehrenfeld. Mit der U-Bahn (Nr. 3 und 4) ist man in 15 mins an der Messe bzw Lanxess-Arena. Somit eine preislich attraktive Alternative zu den Hotels in der Innenstadt. Die Zimmer sind zwar schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen, gleichzeitig geräumig und sauber. Es gibt eine Klimaanlage, was für den Sommer wahrlich gut war. Das Frühstück sah gut aus, war uns allerdings zu teuer (18 Euro p.P.). Es gibt einige Garagenplätze, die man für sein Auto reservieren kann. Diese kosten 25 Euro/Nacht... teuer, allerdings ist parken in den Straßen von Ehrenfeld nicht leicht und bis 21 Uhr kostenpflichtig. Alles in allem waren wir sehr zufrieden und können das Hotel definitiv empfehlen 👍
