2 star hotels in Koln

Good location for the trade show and carnivals. Nothing special though. Beds are quite ok.

The hotel location was decent, but the booking process didn't ask for all guests to be listed. Two children weren't allowed to check in on-site. I called Ctrip for 15 minutes to discuss the issue, and ultimately they wanted me to pay an extra surcharge. I want to point out that the room I booked was specifically for one adult and two children, and they didn't agree to the on-site change. In the end...

The beds were very comfortable. My son really loved the bunk bed!

The bathroom design was a little strange, but it was acceptable. I needed a copy, and they made it for me when I asked.

Everything was good, clean, and the reception was friendly.

I had a truly pleasant stay at this hotel. The staff were extremely polite, friendly, and professional, always ready to help with a smile. The rooms were clean, well-organized, and fully equipped with everything I needed. The breakfast was varied and of high quality, served in a lovely dining area. The hotel’s location was excellent, offering easy access to local attractions and shopping centers. I...

Made for a decent place to stay if you’re not looking for luxury! Not far from the cathedral or the train station.

The receptionist is very friendly and helpful. The location is close to train station and landmarks within walking distance.

Our team visited Cologne for Trade Fair and explored the hotels around there. Finally we found this hotel match our need with quality , location and budget set. Our score for this hotel 1). Room cleanliness : 10/10. 2). Location : 9/10. 3). Breakfast : 9/10. 4). Staff service : 10/10. 5). Value of money : 9/10.

It's very affordable, and the location is convenient — only an 8-minute walk to Cologne Cathedral.

Great location, close to Cologne Cathedral. The facilities are basic, almost like a hostel, with no elevator and no kettle. We booked a double room, which was a decent size. During exhibition periods, the room rates are very high, and the facilities don't match the price. However, it's fairly clean, and you can get free water, tea, and coffee downstairs. Luggage storage is also available. For business...

The hotel is situated at around 5 minute walk from the Train Station. We arrived the hotel by a late ICE train at night, there is no problem regarding safety or ease of access. The reception is 24 hours manned, and has a self-service drink kiosk which you find rare to be free on European budget hotel chains. Overall lovely staff and big hotel. Note this hotel has only stair access, but to be fair for...

Internet was very bad. Might be more facilities like toothbrush and toothpaste, slippers. No elevator for 4th floor. No tea or other food services :(

Clean room comfortable bed helpful staff only issue no lift so I travelled with a friend with health condition so by end of week she was feeling it from the stairs other than that great stay. Plenty of shops supermarkets coffee shops bakery pubs couple minutes walk

Very nice and helpful staff. The room was clean even if kind if old. But totally Ok. The position is the best if you are in the city for a cin ern jn the close arena. Its also very convenient to reavh tye city center: just 20 minutes walking distance. The area is full of cafeterias, restaurants and shops.

The hotel was small, the bed was small, the bathroom lacked a separate shower area, leaving the floor wet after showering, and the room floor was slippery. Aside from the cheap price and proximity to the tram stop, I wasn't very satisfied, but the service was acceptable.

Amazing value I would 100% recommend no complaints at all, I was able to enter at 3AM due to our late flight with no problems. Keys are on phones so are very easy. Just the best hotel I could have gone too.

The room is small, but the interior is clean and chic. Close to the Deutz station. One bottle of mineral water is free. Free wifi.

Nice hostel for sleeping with your friends if you can book a full room. Location is close to the center. The hostel is very affordable, so you can expect it to be minimalistic and if you are a light sleeper you should bring earplugs due to the close tramline. Would recommend if friends are only looking for a place to crash at night.

Good for startup founders who just want to stay overnight, good location, REWE direct opposite. If you close the windows, it won't be too loud. Kitchen, bath, toilette, all clean. Recommended for guys and lads travelling, startup founders. Not recommended for family, group of women with high demand in service and parfume.

It was a nice hostel generally, enjoyed the stay there, there is a kitchen with a common space. However it could have been cleaner, there were some crumbs on the floor in the private room when we arrived

It’s a little bit intimidating because it doesn’t have much light in the hallway, but it is well located and it’s ok because it has a really low price. The image/cleanliness could be better though.

Lovely place to have my field trip with my peers there.

Great place! They've been very creative by giving every room a different theme and the owner is awesome. See you next time I'm in Cologne (:

Easy to find and very easy access all done through the phone.. nice cozy room.. Bed was very comfortable.

Practical and affordable option. Single bed rooms are small but sufficient. Breakfast is a bit on the simple side… but its there. A bit of noise from the street early morning, but nothing that you notice until you wake up…

I had a great stay at this hotel. The staff were amazing – very friendly and helpful. The place was quiet, clean, and had everything I needed. The location was also convenient, close to the airport with restaurants and shops nearby. The only thing to keep in mind is that there’s no fan or AC, so it might get a bit warm during summer, but for me, it was perfect. Overall, a very good experience and I...

It was so hot that I couldn't sleep all night.

The hotel was a new concept SMARTY hotel, simple and clean. At first, the space between rooms was like a maze, but I soon got used to it. The toiletries in the bathroom and the room were all necessary and well-organized. When Asians stay in the winter, they need to have the sense to ask for an extra blanket. The manager, who is from Ukraine, was very kind and resolved the guests' concerns well.

Great overall, loved the remote check in, there was a lot of road noise and the corridor very echoey when people were talking but still managed a good sleep. Well equipped room and an easy 35 minute walk to the airport ( 4am walk was pleasant enough for anyone struggling with the lack of public transport at that time of the morning )

Perfect for a family, we all had our own bed, the kitchen is big, very quiet on a weekend and very clean with all the amenities you need. Very close to Phantasialand.

Excellent value if you're travelling by car - it's not a great location itself but has free parking and you can easily drive to a commuter train station to get to Köln. We also liked the shared kitchen area where you could use the fridge, stove, kettle etc to make meals.

It's cheap, friendly staff, clean and a nice allround hotel. Only disadvantage is thr location, it's a 15 minute walke on a very uncomfortable road to the nearest bus and the industrial terrain besides the hotel isn't very nice either.

Check in, checkout : great. The keys are provided with locker box and you receive it's code on email. Cleanliness : great. Kitchen : great. Location : not so good. Wesseling Nord is the nearer station, that being outside Köln zone. Also Google Maps do not show the stairs to cross the bridge on the way from station to to hotel.

Good priced hotel and the room was great with a shared kitchen that was good to have. Very friendly helpful host. The location is a bit out of the way so you need a car or Uber. If you come bring train Wesseling Nord is a 20 minutes walk along a straight road.

The staff were very generous, they always had a positive attitude. Great for long-term stay though you need to walk a little to get to the nearest train stop. The shared kitchen is open all the time. The rooms were quiet, so were the surroundings of the building.

I was in town for the ANUGA trade fair earlier this month, and while the hotel's location was perfect (just a stone's throw from the Cathedral) and the rooms were exactly right—spotlessly clean and tidied daily—the real story here is the incredible staff. My trip took a painful turn when too many excellent German beers triggered a brutal gout attack. With my foot throbbing, I felt desperate. I approached...

A really nice place to stay in Cologne. Online check-in was easy and access with the door code was straightforward. There is no actual reception but there is a workspace downstairs, where I believe the owner often resides. The room itself was small but perfectly formed, a simple bed, desk, wardrobe and a private bathroom. Location was great, only a 10 minute or so walk into the city centre but there...

Really perfect!!! Definitely 5 stars from me, the location and the price were great and staying at the hotel was super pleasant. I appreciated that the automated check-in was very simple, often in Airbnbs or other hotels you have to go through a convoluted process that feels like an escape room before you make it to your room but here I just got a code, entered that on the main door and that was it...

The rooms are very small but okay for solo travelers. It is a 15-minute walk to the city center. Since I visited during a rainy season, it felt a bit far to me, but it was just 15 minutes away from the Kölner Dom. The cleanliness of the room was average. There is no elevator, and the stairs are a bit narrow, so if you have heavy luggage, you’ll need to carry it up the stairs. However, in terms of price...

What a cute, wonderful place. Hotel is updated, clean and comfortable. The host was so kind and even provided us a fan for the room. Convenient location, approximately 10-15 min walk to central train station and cathedral. Couldn't be happier.

Stayed 4 nights for the Euro's, extremely friendly welcome and easy check in. Hotel Skada is directly opposite Koln Messe/Deutz railway station, in a great location for Koln Triangle observation deck and Lanxess Arena, Rheinpark is within walking distance and only 1k away from Kolner Dom. The hotel itself was clean, has decent sized room's and good working bathroom facilities. The only downside was...

Came and stayed at this hotel for 4 nights with friends which has very friendly receptionist and is a great location just across the road from a train station and around the corner from the koln triangle, at has a bar and an eating area but i never used these, you could purchase additional breakfast and gas a nice busy Mexican restaurant one or two doors away. It Is also a great location with just...

Great location and a bit like taking a step back in time in a slightly weird and spooky experience! Automated check in is efficient just impersonal. Only ever met the doggy behind reception which was cute. All the rooms are unique and some are quite "special". This said, all clean and all working. Never met anyone from the hotel and with the funky decor gave a bit of a spooky but fun feel! Beer...

Very good small hotel. Clean room, very nice staff! Only the bathroom are with old sanitarium and without any accessories / even no soap/ at least there are towels. But is at perfect location! I would visit it again.

Well... it's good for a night or two. It was OK for the price I payed. It's clean but not up to date. The mattress is unbelievably soft. They give you a voucher for a free beer for the pub downstairs. I can't complain about anything. If you're looking for a place to sleep while touring the city - this is good. If you're looking for a nice vacation hotel to kick back and relax or want a modern room...

Their service was really good. I liked the way they treated us during our stay. The rooms look great too!

6/2025 + position (close to the office) an in a nice area well linked to city center by tram. + cleanliness. + comfy mattress. + good restaurant in the same property. - curtains were ineffective in blocking sunrays, in the early morning there was already full light. - noisy due to traffic just in front of the room, even if the good quality windows helped in reducing the noise. - staff is available...

First time in germany and this was a great place to stay. Close to family there so that helps. The tram is down the road so easy to get to the centre of cologne. Its in a bit of a suburb of cologne, there are a couple of bakeries, a supermarket and pizza restaurant. Its not the best area but reasonably priced and has alot of good points. Easy to get into the hotel, welcomed by a staff member who was...

Just to say myself and my daughter had a fab time at the hotel Location is ideal for tram to central cologne Rooms were spotless Very quiet Staff very pleasant and professional Regards Linda

It’s a good value for money hotel. Good location, easy to walk to the train station and reach the center. The rooms are clean and tidy. Service is ok, it’s actually a restaurant, hotel is kind of extra for the enterprise. I recommend the hotel

We had a stay at Zagreb for an upcoming concert. Rooms standard, coffee facility there in the room. With closed windows not much noise from the street. We just missed one or two plug sockets more and one more beside table. And the shower cabin could be more modern. Stay was pleasant. Restaurant was good. The 2 person plates are quite big. We would come again any time and it is recommendable. 👍

Because of Covid-19, I only have had the experience of the food being delivered. This restaurant really makes great German food. I had the champignon medaillons and ooh my.. it tastes so good! The panna cotta is also amazing. Absolutely worth it.

The hotel's location wasn't ideal, we realized that upon arrival. However, it was a clean hotel. The amenities weren't extensive, and they sold water for a very high price; it could definitely be cheaper.

Located in the suburbs, it's conveniently located by car, with several multi-story parking garages nearby. However, there aren't many restaurants or shops in the area. The lobby is decent, with a common area where you can sit and chat. Breakfast is rather basic, with limited variety. There aren't many types of ham, but there's plenty of bread and coffee. Dessert options are also scarce.

The place was great, clean and easy access parking lot. We’ll definitely book again. Staff she’s great and welcoming.

Everything was great. The staff was very friendly. We would love to come back the next time we're in Cologne.

Great! Needed a bottle opener, no problem! Cutlery - no problem!

Check-in was smooth, breakfast wasn't top-notch but there was enough choice!

Friendliest staff I've ever met.

Nice staff, cool neighbourhood

Confortable, and not expensive. Great personal who will be there for you and of course great zone for tourism and fun !

Better than expected. Staff are all lovely and even opened the group room for our party of 8. Room was basic but clean and well appointed. Blinds didn’t really keep the morning light out well. There was a bit of a funny smell but not horrible! Breakfast was good and included. All round very good

Our 9th grade class had a wonderful stay at the Cologne Hostel. We lacked nothing. Thank you so much! The staff were all exceptionally friendly. Arrival and departure went smoothly. Our students especially enjoyed the common room in the basement, where they could relax and hang out until late in the evening. Highly recommended!

Very central location - comfy beds - good breakfast! Ideal if you want to rest or party! Everything is close by - highly recommended

I only have good things to say about this hostel. Very warm reception and basically in the city center.

Clean. Modern room. Bright. A lot of windows. It's in the city center (pro and con) so if you open the window it can be noisy (restaurant, motorcycle, police - windows have a good noise cancelling. Friendly. Breakfast is sufficient. Kids friendly. No air-condition. Nice terrace. Visited in spring. Nothing to complain about.

Simply the best!! 5 stars deserving without a single star!! Perfect location and very friendly, dynamic young team. Indeed a home for a short sojourn. Keep it up!!

Visited Cologne for the Christmas Markets Location: The hostel isn’t in a bad location, though it’s a short walk from the nearest tram or metro stop. It’s situated above a bar (which I didn’t use, but it’s handy to know for late check-ins), and there’s an Aldi just a couple of blocks away—very convenient. Room/Comfort: I chose this hostel for its beds, and they did not disappoint. While it’s not quite...

provide free coffee and tea, also free ginger shot many bathrooms, which is super nice hair dryers are also provided

If you're passing through Colonia, this is a good accommodation option. About 20 minutes from the central station, this hostel has all the necessary amenities. The only downside for me is the lack of air conditioning, which makes it unbearable to sleep in during the hot season, although the fan helps a little. The shared bathrooms were always clean, and they provide towels. As a guest, you get a 1...

Such a great spot would heavily recommend. The rooms were so comfortable and the beds where way bigger than any other hostel Ive stayed in. The bar downstairs is lovely and the whole area around it was great. Staff was super friendly and the whole vibe of the place was great.

Really comfortable, clean and secure. My first solo travel experience and I was anxious about how secure my belongings would be. I couldn't have been happier with the accommodation. For such a popular and busy bar, noise was relatively nonexistent.

I only stayed one short night in that hostel but I wish I could have stayed a bit longer. I booked a dorm in the ballroom one, women only, the booth was great. Comfy and very large bed for one person, tablet/light/plug for the phone, everything I needed once I was up there. I could put my valued belongigs in a closed locker which was really appreciated. The key in the lift to the hostel was given...
