Clean and central
This place is in the best location you could ask for. The cleaning was second to none and the beds are really comfy.
The maintenance leaves room for improvement, TV in room 301 does not work, foot prints on the wall, broken bathroom heater and damaged wall art.

Very good location, near to restaurants and bares.
In general is good, but the bed and pillos need an improvement, the rest is ok.
some times you need a person in reception, I forgot my cellphone charger but couldn't get it, back.

Location is fantastic and rooms are fine. Drilling started at 8AM, and thin walls both between the rooms and to the street outside meant there was a lot of noise. Lack of staff even in the middle of the day made checking in difficult, as the automated system is overly complicated.

Great value, highly recommend. The double bed was 2 single beds pushed together which slipped apart slightly during the night but other than that faultless!

This place is overpriced beyond reasonable. There is no staff and at the entry to the hotel homeless people and prostitutes gather. There was feses on the wall.

The room was very cozy and the location is amazing. The self check-in was convenient. The only downside was that the nights get cold and the heat doesn't get very warm but tolerable. Everything else was excellent, I would recommend this place to others.

Not really a fan of the automated check in and check out it seems. Because of this, there is no where to leave luggage before check in and after check out; the information recommends a kiosk a good walk away but they turned me away with my bagpack and small suitcase (genuienly is small; no taller than my knee), or the main train station lockers.
The room seemed quiet; was clean and very well furnished.
I will be returning to Cologne next year, and will unfortunately be trying my luck with an alternate hotel because I don’t want to wheel my suitcase around with me all day when I arrive.

Asked for high floor given level 1. Asked for double bed given twin beds. Nevertheless, the overall stay was pleasant as the lift was unique, the room was spacious and the location was next to Rathaus mrt entrance.

Great location right across from cathedral, 5 min walk. Step right into Christmas market. But, shower was clogged and unusable and no support from owners. Unfortunate.

The location of this hotel is fantastic, right on the Alter Markt square (a big square with lots of restaurants and pubs) and a few hundred metres away from the Dom. However, the beds are horrific, they are very hard and not a very good sleep. Also there is no airco, which was not pleasant because the two days we stayed it was 29 degrees celcius outside but inside even warmer.
So overall: location great. Room not so great.

There is no concierge desk at this property. I failed to recieve and email from the hotel with my entry code for the front door. I waited on the street for 45 minutes until another hotel guest was exiting the building. I had to plead to be let in the front door before I could check myself in. An email to the hotel failed to get a reply. Very poor customer service.

This property was very well located. It is right next to a town square where there plenty of bars and restaurants. It is a short walk to the river on one side and the impressive Cathedral on the other.
The self-service check in was easy to understand and the building and room felt secure with the doors closed.
The room was comfortable with basic kitchen facilities that including a fridge. There was plenty of storage space for your clothes.
There are 2 things missing. There is no safe in the room, and the building does not have air conditioning.
The positives far outweigh the negatives and I would not hesitate to stay at these apartments again.

ok stay but underwhelmed by decor
It was a comfortable stay overall, the room was ok, big, however, I chose this hotel based on attractively presented decors on the booking site, while in reality my room was rather spartan..
Once you book they warn you it's in a noisy (if convenient) location, and most people likely would want earplugs..
Everything is done online via email links, or an app, so no human interaction. In my case they failed to email me the code needed to actually enter the building.. I had to shadow someone in..

We were locked out of the building for over 30 min
We were locked out of the building for over 30 minutes before check in. The hotel (or hotels.com) supposed to send us a door code to enter the building, but somehow it was missed. There's no staff on site to help.

Koncept's Concept Needs Improvement
I was not impressed with the kiosk check-in system. When I added an extra day to my stay I had to go through a 30-minute process of checking out and checking in. I also had a package which needed to be delivered to the hotel but there is no hotel staff there to receive it.

This property is in the middle of everything.. great location very convenient for people without a car... However, it seems to me that this was a party zone. Music and people going on all night long. You're not a party people so it was a challenge for us at night trying to go to sleep wait so much noise. Read the check in instructions well before you get to the property. They don't have stuff there to help you checking in.

The hotel is lovely - was able to get an apartment which had a small kitchen area as well as the bedroom and bathroom, which was really nice. The rooms were really nicely decorated, and the bed very comfortable. It's also very central, with a number of bars and restaurants nearby.
The only issue was checking in. There's no reception, instead you need to use a code to get in (or check in via an app). The details for this weren't shared by hotels.com. Instead I had to phone the hotel while stood at the front door to get the necessary codes. Apparently hotels.com are known for doing this. So something to be aware of if you book this otherwise lovely hotel.

The check-in process is a hassle without a front desk. They do eventually get you in if you call the phone number on the machine that spits out the keys. Also, if there is an issue, it is a pain to get it remedied.

The hotel is a good location if you want to enjoy the local beer halls and bars. However, there is no air conditioning and it is also really difficult to block out any sound from bars and restaurants. Overall, I liked the location but did not enjoy the hotel since it was incredibly hot (no air conditioning) and when I opened the window in the evening, it did little to cool down the room and the noise from the bars just outside. Also, since there is no front desk service, it is more difficult to talk to someone about getting help with your room.

A fully Digital Experience
Every interaction is digital - I had no human interaction during my stay. This isn't really an issue as the check-in and door-key app worked well except on first arrival, when it wasn't clear that Bluetooth needs to be activated for the app. Also... never leave your phone behind in the room!
The only negative was the load music from the adjoining bar - I think my room shared a wall which is clearly not very thick!
Other than that, it was what I needed for my stay and well located in the town. I would stay again.
