Located outside of Koln, this hotel is well situated as there is an S-bahn (light rail) just in front of the hotel that can take you into the old town section of Koln. The rooms are small, but we'll kept. The breakfast buffet was large, with many different offerings for all tastes. I'd come back and stay here again if I'm in the area.

Overall it’s a safe place to stay. My understanding was that parking was included for hotel guests and it wasn't.
Absolutely amazing staff-a real credit to the hotel. They couldn't have been more helpful or polite, especially in a hotel full of demanding football fans.

Decent Hotel
Decent Hotel, but very old. Great service but the place needs a touch up.
Breakfast was ok.
Highly recommend for anyone who has a loved one staying at the ATOS Orthoparc Klinik. Essential by Dorint Köln is a 7 minute WALK to the hospital. This made daily visits possible as the commute from where we live would be an hour each way. The staff were friendly and helpful (provided a loaner power strip when we realized one was needed to charge the laptop). The rooms were comfortable, business style, with a good wall mounted TV. The hotel has a restaurant with tasty meals, has on-site parking, AND is dog-friendly!
Conveniently located at walking distance from the STR (tram) station Mohnweg, about 25 min ride from the Deutz/Messe Cologne train station. The room was not luxurious, but clean and comfortable. Shower water heats up right away. You need adapters if you come from the US. There is no outlet near the desk. My room was facing the main street, which is very busy. I would ask for a back-facing room unless traffic lulls you to sleep (the window seals the noise out). Breakfast was excellent. Nice espresso machine. The staff is helpful and efficient. If you like running, the back streets are very nice.
Stewed here for one night. Close to Rheinenegy stadion which was perfect to watch Pink! No Ned for trams which were packed before and after!
Staff were friendly and hotel was immaculate. Bathroom a little dated but clean and functional.
We stayed over NYE and it was quiet and clean. There’s no coffee pot or conditioner, but it’s got soap, towels, a bed, and is quiet, so it’s really what we needed. The people are nice and I’d stay again since it’s conveniently located 1/2 block from a metro stop. Parking was €19/day with in/out under the building- be sure you tell the desk so they can set up your parking ticket correctly for the in/out part.

Nice room, but no bar and expensive parking.
Nice hotel in the area of the Neustad (by U-Bahn).
The hotel bar is closed, so nothing to do in the evening, At Hotels.com it says it's open, but it isn't.
Also parking is not € 25 a day but an expensive € 28 for a day.
Room was OK, but the other things dissapointing.
Ich würde 4,5 von 5 Sternen geben, wenn ich könnte. Der Empfang war sehr herzlich, alle Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, dafür 5 Sterne!
Mein Superior-Zimmer war zweckmäßig und sauber, die Heizung funktionierte hervorragend.
Fahrstuhl vorhanden.
Die Lage ist praktisch, die Linie 1 fährt nur wenige Meter entfernt ab.
Einen Minuspunkt gibt es für den „Kleiderschrank“, der nur ein sehr schmales offenes Regal ist, wo kaum etwas reinpasst. Außerdem fand ist es etwas dunkel, da es keine Deckenleuchte gibt.
Unsere Zimmer-Einrichtung war schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Aber trotzdem sehr sauber und gepflegt. Das Personal ist freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es fehlt allerdings die Möglichkeit noch einen gemütlichen Absacker im Hotel zu nehmen wenn man später als 21.00 Uhr kommt. Zu- und Ausfahrt zur Tiefgarage ist etwas eng, die Stellflächen aber großzügig.
