Room was nice, and check in was smooth. I like that filtered water was available with refillable bottles able to be taken to rooms. Breakfast was a little disappointing with the scrambled eggs being overcooked on both days. Overall satisfactory for where i needed to go to during the trip
Great clean, modern hotel. It is a bit off the beaten path, but there's a train station a couple of blocks away that takes you to the Hauptbahnhof, so very convenient. One of the best hotel breakfasts I've had in a long time.
It was clean and the desk staff were polite and friendly. Would be nice if there was an alternative blanket to the duvet as my husband found the duvet to be too warm.
A lovely clean and comfortable hotel in a quiet area but still close to the city centre. Staff very friendly and helpful. The room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The fridge in the room was useful.
Clean and good size rooms. However they close on the 23rd of Dec after 12 noon so we could not leave our luggage as we had a later train and we were not aware of this. Sumptuous breakfast spread.
Spacious apartment for our family of 4. One bed with a pull-out couch bed that was already made upon our arrival. Extremely clean and quiet. Walking distance to everything. Loved it!
This hotel saved our trip to Cologne. After an awful stay elsewhere the night before, we were able to get a late booking.
Our apartment was spacious and cool - in the oppressive heat outside - clean and well equipped with its own small kitchen area and a nice bathroom.
The breakfasts were amazing and the pool was nice to use as well, if a little on the cool side.
Positives: clean and in a quiet area
Negatives: maybe this hotel would have been fine had it not been for a terrible first impression that then meant finding fault with things normally would just have been ignored. On arrival, checked in and told would be staying in the less-than-appealing-looking block the other side of the road (no reception, bar or pool or anything there). Then told am staying in a room on fourth floor and then told the lift is not working. There was no email about this in advance, or message via Expedia. This was not a problem but the fact they had not even bothered to check or update me in advance was lazy practice by Mercure management. The feeling it left me with was that they did not really care about having me as a guest and that feeling persisted the next time I interacted with a member of staff in check-out; who did not even bother to ask me how my stay was. It just gave the impression of a hotel where the culture is one of not really being that bothered at all about customer service.
So I can also say that my room smelt of drains, had to phone for the WiFi password, the bed was uncomfortable, the two pillows provided had the structural integrity of a melting block of ice and ice would have been nice as, inevitably, the air conditioner did not work.
The hotel did offer me a free drink at the bar on arrival because the lift was broken. The bar was unstaffed at that point, so meaningless.
Book elsewhere.
The staff was polite.
I booked this hotel because of the spa. The spa wasn’t available. Due to renovation. Therefore the spa should have been removed from the facilities

Good and solid
We were met by friendly and professional staff. Hotel services good not excellent. Great breakfast, however evening restaurant not worth a visit. Great pool
Parking was 24€ per day and breakfast was also roughly 24€ per person so even though the price for the stay was reasonable, the after costs were relative to a more expensive hotel, closer to the cathedral.
It was a nice hotel though and staff were really nice! We would stay closer to the Cathedral next time because there were more food options closer and walking back was a bit tiring after a long day out. Al
Central location
Clean and tidy rooms
Safe and clean neighbourhood
Late night walks around area safe and recommended
Limited breakfast options for vegetarian people. A lot of dairy and meat products and bacon spilling into eggs etc so we were very careful.
Stayed 3 nights, easy check in but rooms not ready till 3pm, cam back for my bag a lot later on. No fridge, no safe and no wifi, without these I would only rate it a 3 star. Very comfy and very clean. 15 mins to the Dom or main station.
Quite peaceful location too and I definitely recommend it.
