GGuest UserThe hotel location was great, and so close to the subway for easy transport into the city. When I made the reservation, it did not indicate that parking was an additional fee, just that there was parking. Not that parking was very much, but I don't recall seeing a fee posted on the booking website, and it was jusy unexpected. The room was sufficient- a tiny bit smaller than expected. And the room had a slight sour smell, not sure if it was mildew or just stuffy from the winter west weather, but we were only there one night, so we didn't fuss. The check-in staff spoke less english than expected, but was okay, as my Deutsch was just good enough we could meet in the middle. Breakfast was a good spread and the attendants were plenty.
Ccyoukou****The hotel is right next to Cologne Central Station; you step out and it's there. From the room, you can see Cologne Cathedral, allowing you to fully experience Cologne day and night. Being near the station, all kinds of amenities are very convenient. The hotel lobby even preserves a brick from 1979. The breakfast has a rich selection of cheeses – a cheese lover's dream! German beer is truly delicious. You absolutely must visit the Cologne Triangle; watching the sunrise there for five euros is an incredibly beautiful and stunning experience that photos can only capture about fifty percent of.

CChenzhitaoBeetleChenIt's quite close to the convention center, about a 10-minute walk. There's a supermarket nearby, but no restaurants, so you have to walk across the river for food. The breakfast is pretty limited, mostly just cereal, so I recommend bringing some instant noodles.
CChee KoonSituated in the Altstadt-Nord district, Hotel Merian is a short 2-minute walk from Cologne Central Station (Köln Hbf) and less than 10 minutes on foot from the Cologne Cathedral. This is the kind of hotel I am looking for and I highly recommend to anyone who is searching for an affordable stay in the heart of Cologne city.
LLiaoachafengmenglongThe hotel next to the Cologne Church, the location is OK, six or seven minutes walk from the train station! There is a free coffee machine next to the front desk on the first floor. You can enjoy the room card at will. There are tea bags, hot tea, and the machine can make coffee and hot cocoa. The room is large and spacious, the only downside is that the curtains are not shading enough!

Rrickan2000A rather basic hotel, but worthy of its price. The hotel is suitable for people with a limited budget but who want to live here for a long time. In addition to ordinary hotel rooms, there are also public living rooms and public bathrooms (that is, there are also rooms without bathrooms). The overall feel is more like a student dormitory. The room was very cold when I arrived. I searched for a long time before I realized that the heating was not turned on. So my impression of this hotel is cold and bleak, and I guess I won't go there again in the future. But it would be unfair to say that this hotel has nothing good to offer.
AAnonymous UserThe Good:
- Location is right in the middle of everything and few steps from the Cologne Cathedral and the Cologne Central Station.
- Most of the staff were nice and helpful. The young lady (she had curly hair) and the Dutch man were amazing and friendly!
- The room given to us was huge! It had a living room.
- The price was affordable considering we went during peak holiday season with the Christmas markets open.
The Bad:
- We were on the 5th floor and the lift was only until the 4th floor. We had to carry our luggages up 2 flights of stairs to get to our room. Also the lift was tiny! It could only fit 2 persons or 1 person with luggage.
- Heating was not working. When we arrived, we were wondering why we had 2 portable heaters (with 1 not working), we realised the radiators were not working!
- The bathroom stank the whole room everytime we came in from outside. It seemed to come from the drainage.
- The bathroom has a huge window (not frosted, no curtain) that makes you uncomfortable when showering! I had to turn the lights off at night so I wasn't visible from outside. And during the day, I had to crouch.
- The shower cubicle was so tiny! I kept hitting the shower lever so the temperature kept changing while showering. I had to leave the glass door open so I can move.
- The sofas in the living room had stains.
- The king bed was actually 2 single bed beds placed side by side and I kept falling into the middle crack.
- The mattress had a lump in the middle. It was uncomfortable.
- There was 1 female staff (older lady), who was rude. We asked to collect our luggage we left after we checked out and she had this pissed off expression like we bothered her for asking.
I had high expectations as I have stayed in Wyndham hotels before and this hotel was not up to par.

SSlowwwwwI had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The location is excellent—just a short walk from the cathedral. The receptionist was friendly and helpful. My room was clean and comfortable.
GGuest Userthe room is clean, the owner is gentle and responsive. The only problem is there is no sound proof at all - considering this is a general flat problem, we can still bear with many random noises coming from outside or inside the building. But there are two permanent residents who share the flat with us cooking and talking to each other from 23pm to 1am, just outside our room. we felt weird to tell them to keep quiet as we are the 'temporary guest'. there must be some rules to be set up if the owner wants to mix long-term and short-term stays.
IIvanStarIt was a short but sweet and very comfortable stay. Reception was very welcoming, nice and Accommodating. Clean, safe and a stone away from the Cologne Cathedral and Christmas Market. We were able to enjoy our time but will
Definitely come back again with more days to stay in Cologne. Highly recommend and appreciate Accommodating us. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
