This is my second stay at the Ibis Hotel in Köln. Once again it met my expectations. It's comfortable, easy to get to and the staff are incredibly helpful. There is a Lidl nearby and various fast food chains, takeaways, sandwich shops and coffee shops within easy walking distance, as well as a tram stop nearby. Obviously this is a budget hotel, so for some the rooms might be very small, but for myself and my sister it was enough and gave us the room to breathe and relax after a long day. This time around I opted out of paying extra for the buffet, however the option is there even if you don't have it included in your booking for an extra €15, which is always helpful if you don't want to go out and eat early in the morning. It's a great budget hotel for a weekend or a long-term stay.

The staff and the location of the hotel were wonderful. Our room was quite clean.

It was so warm on the days we stayed in Cologne and the air conditioner in the room was old and not enough. Sometimes the warmth was overwhelming and not having a refrigerator in the room was also difficult on those warm days. However, it was made clear by the hotel on the facilities list that there was no refrigerator in the room.

Easy check in. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Fairly quiet at night considering how many people were staying at the hotel. The tram stop was close by. Walking to the Neumarkt/cathedral area is a fifteen/twenty minute walk. Plenty of other amenities close by too.

The bathrooms are quite small and awkward to manoeuvre in.

I was in Cologne for a conference at the University, thus, I looked for a hotel close to the conference venue that I could reach on foot I booked at Ibis. The room was small but very well organized. I could see the majestic cathedral towers from my window—a nice view. Breakfast was okay and everything was continuously refilled until 10 am, nothing would be missing as well as for late breakfast. The staff is also kind.

Room was clean and had working AC. Tv had plenty of channels and the area was nice. Staff were helpful and spoke English for us which was greatly appreciated.

A kettle would be a nice addition to the room. Equally the bathroom window was hanging on by a screw and shouldn’t really be there as it is a hazard and could fall at any time.

Staff were excellent, not the ibis I thought I had booked tbh as we were visiting the xmas markets, however it turns out we enjoyed it more as it took you out the way of the markets and there is a lovely bakery around the corner for excellent breakfast and opposite a superb pub with huge inexpensive meals and great atmosphere

Nothing

Stayed for two days and it was pretty comfortable! it was definitely worth the money. The bathroom is a bit small but that wasnt really a problem for us. the staff was really nice and the location was honestly pretty great. Could reach anywhere you want easily since there is transportation closeby!

Despite the vicinity of Barbarossa Platz it was quiet in the room, and the view from the window on the inner yard was nice. Location is great.

It was a little bit cramped, but that's what I was expecting, so no complaints there. A bigger rubbish basket would be nice

room was o.k. ,bathroom a little bit too small. we did not had breakfast. A good location for a short stay and meet frends or family. Direct connection for Streatrailway to go to hotspots in Köln

Manny people standing around in the lobby. It would be good to have a plan of restaurants and bar's near by. Outside quite dirty, but this is not your fault.

Breakfast good, comfortable bed. Room adequate. Good price/ quality ratio. Enough table/ shelf space for a short stay. Excellent location - tram very near. All staff were polite.

No tea or coffee in the room. Bathroom a little small. One receptionist knew nothing about a taxi to the airport - she said it would cost around 20 euros but it was 45. The electronic bill you sent was addressed to 'Herr' June Cook - I'm female and always have been! Level of training of staff was inconsistent - some were knowledgeable and professional, others didn't really seem to know what they should do.
