This hostel went to the effort of providing a bit of free food and great kitchen facilities. We stayed in a 4 person room with double bunk beds. The beds were all clean and comfortable, and it was a decent size room. The kitchen facilities provide everything you could want. Lots of friendly people too! I loved that it was so close to everything, especially the subway and the grocery stores!

A few small things - the bunk beds should be attached to the wall. I almost pulled it over on myself when attempting to climb to the top bunk. A second chair would be nice as well. The shower has a VERY short timer on it, you can barely get yourself wet before having to push it again.

Based on its price, the Weltempfänger Backpacker Hostel provides beyond-expectation services. The bathroom on the second floor is clean. The staff is very friendly and willing to help. There is always some bread, butter, jam, coffee and tea in the kitchen for you to grab an easy meal. The location is also good which is just next to the subway station. I lived in a 6 mix room. At the first night, there was only me as a girl in the room. At the second and third night, another girl came. Fortunately, all the guests in the room were polite.If you are a solo girl and somehow worried about the safety, I would suggest you to choose a female only room.

The hostel we stayed at was truly amazing! The location of the hostel is really easy and close. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed by a warm and friendly atmosphere thank to Moritz. The staff was incredibly helpful and always greeted us with a smile, making us feel right at home. The environment was both peaceful and social, giving us the chance to have great conversations with people from different countries. They were also very meticulous about cleanliness—everything was well-organized and hygienic. If you’re looking for a cozy and comfortable stay, this is definitely the right place! There was also a kitchen which you can cook and use the things there -which are free-.If we ever come back, we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

The stay was very hospitable and the staff were very friendly. They provide you with a free locker+lock and a towel. The kitchen has a lot of amenities for you to cook and store food so that was convenient. There's also free coffee/tea and milk! Would have been nice if there was one more toilet on my floor. Note that there is no lift. The rooms have a wash basin. There is no plug point beside every bed, but there is a USB type charging port. The rooms don't have hooks to hang towels. The neighborhood is really chic with a lot of eateries and stores nearby, a bar right downstairs, and it is right next to the U-Bahn station. I would visit here again!

staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. comfy beds, complimentary towels (helpful when travelling light), very clean rooms and bathrooms which were cleaned very frequently. plenty of complimentary coffee and food in the kitchen. location is perfect - it's right next to piusstraße station and less than 15 mins walk from koln-ehrenfeld station, so very easy to access from the airport. it was my first time in germany never mind koln, i had an amazing time and would defnitely stay here again

The location is right next to the underground station. Above a lovely pub for evening drinks reminds me of publove. And the familiar faces from up stairs helped. Across a fantastic bakery for fresh baked bread and breakfast. Convenient shops close by. If you don't make a point to go out and visit the city. ....you might just chill out. But I love the locker system, the checkout s ystem too. The receptionist was very helpful made contact earlier in the day so it was personal service.

The shower has a system meant to save water so that was new to me and as much as I enjoyed the shower. It would have been nice to know how to Work it for the first time. I got an upgrade too. So thank you but peeped at what I missed and even those showers looked very clean as well.

The staff were very friendly. The kitchen has everything you need with free toast,tea,coffee, jam (which is definitely rare nowadays), The beds were comfy, I stayed two separate nights in separate rooms, one was fantastic the other okay with some noise from the outside, which is expected considering we're the hostel is. The hostel is close to many stores and amazing places to eat.

The lack of toilets outside the room, only 1 on the ground floor. If possible it would be ideal to add more.

The location is bit off from Cologne Central station but the hostel was nice to dwell in for 2 nights. The staffs were friendly and helpful. The hostel was clean and had a cafe/bar at the entrance which offers beer, coffee and soft drinks for discounted price. It's a cozy place to do chit chats. The rooms were quite nice and beds were comfortable. There is also a common kitchen available for the guests to use and which also serves as a place to start a conversation.

All was great. Nothing that we did not like.

All the personal are an incredible Team ! JAVY, SAMIRA, Louis, the half Greek lady, the taller German, the Columbian guy in cleaning, … sorry for not remembering all the names. FEELS LIKE AT HOME !

People are lovely at this Hostel ! Everything was so perfect. Thank you guys for your help and for your quick answer.

the staff is extremely friendly and you feel directly comfortable. They offer free coffee, tea and fruits. The community kitchen is spacious and well equipped. The rooms are clean and quiet. The location is also perfect. Next to a street with all kind of restaurants, bars and shops. Easy reachable from the main train station. Totally recommend:)
