    The location is great, 5 minutes walk from Cologne Central Station. It's a beautiful building with unique and stylish interior design. The reception staff was friendly and the check-in/out was easy and quick. The room was spacious and clean. There are Rituals products in the bathroom, which is a nice touch. Overall it was a great experience, thank you.

    The bar was so lovely! I was not expecting it and all the staff were really nice. The room and hotel were so well designed and decorated, it certainly felt more like a designer hotel rather than a 'motel'. Everything was really comfortable and I enjoyed my stay a lot.

    Loved the simple, modern and stylish design of the hotel and rooms. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was clean and had premium fixtures and finishings with lovely organic soap / shampoo etc.
