Hotels near Essigfabrik, Cologne

Friendly reception but work at very slow efficiency, there even was no proper queue, maybe the manger should get resign lol

It was our first stay at this hotel. We were at a concert at the ”Palladium” and this hotel was within walking distance. Daniel (a hotel employee) gave us a very friendly ”welcome” and was able to give us good tips for our stay. A small plant called ”Annemie” was our 'sleepover buddy' and served a good purpose for nature and the environment.

Hotel location is very good, from Cologne Cathedral, about 10 minutes walk from Cologne Central Railway Station, many restaurants downstairs, walking distance to the nearby shopping center, the bathroom is small, but very clean, just the shower area is small People who are overweight may not turn well, breakfast is rich, there is no problem to eat, the overall price is not bad.

Around 1200meter to PORZ RHEIN train station.500 meter to porz MARKT train station. Good service.beautiful place.

Had a wonderful 3-night stay at this lovely property. Located just a stone’s throw away from Köln Messe/Deutz station, which was very convenient for us who travelled directly from Frankfurt Airport. Its surrounding was peaceful and quiet. Checking-in by Clemens was a breeze. Clemens was friendly and answered all our queries with patience. He also gave us helpful information on dining options in the vicinity. Our courtyard facing Studio room was spacious and quiet, had every amenity we needed for a comfortable stay. We used the washer and dryer every night and it was definitely a great to have. USB charging ports and power points could be found on both sides of the bed and at sitting area. Internet speed was fast. Was able to screen mirroring with my device and hence we were able to enjoy watching Netflix on the big TV screen. Daily housekeeping had also done a wonderful job of keeping our room clean, replacing our used towels and replenishing the laundry detergent. There was a small indoor pool but we didn’t have the time to use it. Our room didn’t come with breakfast, but we did try it out on one morning. Found that it was a tad overpriced at €22 as the spread wasn’t big and choices were pretty limited, the only disappointment we had of this property. Overall a fantastic stay and is value for money. Would strongly recommend this property to anyone who is visiting Cologne.

This hotel should only be used as a bed to sleep in, and expect absolutely nothing more. I was here on business with 2 colleagues and everything was just ok. The people in the reception looked very bored and uninspired. The room was alright, the housekeeping a joke. To be fair, with 3 people living in a very small room the space to clean was minimal as we had to spread quite a bit, but I expected the trash bin to be emptied. The beds were alright and the AC excellent, which was good as the area around the hotel tend to be noisy as it is in the industrial part of town. There was a brief 10 minute walk to the s-bahn. Very few choices of food around the area. The breakfast, that they priced up from €7.50 to €10.50 from our booking to arrival is not worth the money, with a very bad selection and slow refill when there is a lot of people. The Frau managing the breakfast area was very agressive in asking for room number and barely understood any English making it very awkward. If you are a smoker, then the smoking area outside does not have any place to sit. Unless there is no other available places to stay, I will not come back to this hotel.

Hygien, room, bed, quietness everything was great except that I got this problem with the receptionists. So I did explain to all the receptionist (that I saw-because I understand they work in shifts) that I lost 2 luggages due to the airline's mistake and airline will send them to this hostel where I would be staying (for 1 night only). I explained that if someone sent luggages here, please tell me asap because I needed to catch a train to Amsterdam the nextday noon. Imagine 35kg of personal belongs just dissapeared, I didnt have toothbrush, clean clothings.... I reminded them everything 3-4 hours when I saw a receptionist. After almost 27 hours of waiting in worry (which made me cannot enjoy the city), I talked to one receptionist to please check 1 more time becauze the airlines mailed me that they did send to the hostel at 4:30pm in the day I checked-in hostel, (only 4-5 hours after my flight time), she let me go it the luggage room and my luggages were there the whole time! So I waited in pain for 22 hours for nothing. I think it would be a bit obvious when 1 guy in delivery company uniform went in with 2 luggages and said ”this is from one of your customer.” But the receptionist just forgot it quickly and didnt tell me. I had to change a lot of my plan and I was feeling terible and stressful with the waiting and fear of lost luggages. Beside that, the condition of rooms, facilities, warm water, sound proof windows were great.

I was here for a night to visit a company nearby. The arrival goes from Cologne main railway station easy with the bus. From the hotel you can also go well further to the chemical park. Since I arrived late in the evening and left early, I can't say anything about the often commented outdoor condition. Inside it is beautifully furnished and modern designed. The rooms are somewhat young hostel style but absolutely clean and sufficient. Breakfast was very varied and I would book it again the next time. If I'm back in the opposite, I would book it again.

Great location, central and quiet at the same time. Cleanliness. We were actually very surprised by the excellent reviews of this hotel based on which we made our final decision to stay there. Double rooms were like tiny boxes, the supposed 'double bed' was much too small for two adults and not comfortable. The mattress was very hard, the sheets very slippery. Half of the shower door was missing and it ended up getting very wet in the bathroom. The fan in the bathroom didn't work to help dry things up. Not sure if all rooms are like this or we were just unlucky with room 323. Breakfast was basic but decent, after 9am they don't really bother to refill.

A nice hotel with pleasant staff. It's a bit out of the way but accessible as long as you are happy to research the public transport. Has a McDonalds next door so you would never starve! And there is a Lidl a short walk away. The sofa/camp beds could possibly benefit from being updated as sitting/sleeping on those wasn't particularly comfortable but the main beds were comfortable. Breakfast was continental and pleasant. We would stay at the hotel again.
