Very old interior with smelly carpets . The shower is very small and smell bad . Old furniture . Very limitted parking spot and I had to pay 1 euro perc15 min in street next to the hotel and even that was very difficult to find .
They gave away our reserved room. Then they gave us a room that was a single bed which was not equivalent to a kind bed. Then they gave us a better room but had no hot water and the toilet didn’t flush well. Overall I would stay away from here and the reception was rude if you can only speak English.
Nice little hotel; a bit tired but clean and tidy. Staff helpful. The area isn’t the best in Köln but safe. Breakfast very adequate, and chef is nice. Would recommend for a short stay.
The room was clean and bed comfortable. Staff not very helpful. Didn't feel like I was made to feel welcome.

Pretty poor for the price
Not a bad stay, all staff in hotel were friendly and helpful. Major downside was price and the level of amenties in the room. No tea and coffee making facility in room, very poor shower with intermittent hot water. I paid £250 for 3 nights and it was for sure not worth that

It is located in a small street, its quiet and clean overall. Its easy to reach, 4 stops by bus from central station, and a 25 mins walk if you choose to do so. In 5-10 mins walking distance, there are a lot good restaurant and bar and grocery store. Will stay here again if visit the city again.
Having used this hotel many times before I emailed well in advance requesting and early check in and room at the front of the hotel which was ignored. When I arrived I was refused an early check in and told I was on the 5th floor and the lift was broken, refused to try and find an alternative room
On a lower floor no apology or explanation of any kind. Almost 80 stairs to climb.
The room was tired and worn the bed was 2 singles pushed together the light switches were at the head of the bed behind the pillows so when you moved you either switched them on or off.
There was no privacy as the window had to be wide open due to the intense heat the blind was attached to the velux style window so everyone in the building opposite could see in.
Hot water was temperamental. The shower was over a very high sided bath where the shower curtain only covered half so more often than not you flooded the bathroom when taking a shower.
I needed an Elastoplast and asked reception and was just told NO
Awful room. Nothing like pictures. Staff seemed to not want to be there. Whole building smelt. No air con. Opening window let stench of bins in. Parking is not really parking. Almost scratched car in process of parking.
Left and had to book another hotel after seeing the room and they refused to refund.
Absolutely DO NOT book this place
Nice, clean and well priced although slightly away from the areas best served by public transport.

Great little hotel off the beaten track but not too far out of town - 20 minute walk to the Cathedral. Quiet, friendly, clean mid budget hotel.

Don’t go here
I booked a three bedroom for me and my two friends between April 6th-11th, we arrived late on April 6th to book in and sue to a slight mistake we had to pay an extra €200 on top of the €421 already charged, this ruined the rest of our break.
Also one day I left the key behind reception to pass on to one of my friends, I told the receptionist his name and he refused to give my friend the key even with ID.

Dear guest,Thank you very much for your feedback.We are sorry that you did not enjoy your stay with us. The extra cost was for the two more persons as the room was booked for one people only. For security reasons you will just be given the room key with your room ID. This ensures that no stranger enters your room. We will talk to the team to find out why not all three people got a room pass and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.With kind regardsYour Novum Hotel Leonet Köln team
The Hotel is in a really good neighbourhood from Cologne.
Five minutes walking from Heumarkt.
The receptionist was friendly and speaks very well English. The room is clean with hairdryer in the bathroom and a television in the bedroom.
Good place for a visit at Cologne!

Only 1 receptionist who said hello/good morning others didn’t even acknowledge. Shower not fit for purpose as it flooded the bathroom whichever way it was used. Complimentary coffee in reception always empty. Room was on ground floor with large windows that opened which is a security risk. Wardrobe extremely dusty, toiletries never replenished. I imagine this hotel has changed hands since my other 4 stays.

This is a hotel that shouldn’t cost more then 40 euros per night… we paid almost 350/night due to going for a Trade Show
-Curtains broken
-No water
-No fridge
-Really cheap towels and bedding
-You only get one key(which you have to give back at front desk when you leave)
-elevator broken
Only positive thing is the water runs well and the location is quite central… but think twice before

Schlechtes Hotel
Rezeption schrecklich mega unhöflich vlt weil sie gestresst war oder so
Zimmer mit zerissenem sofa
Wc stank und lavabo war dreckig und am Morgen um 7uhr haben wir das hotel mit aufräumkarte vor der Tür verlassen Zimmer wurde trotzdem nicht geputzt umd sachen wurden auch nicht ausgewechselt
In den Bilder von der website tip top aber in echt mega schlecht nicht empfehlenswert
Umgebung auch dreckig aber einbischen weiter weg ist das Zentrum ca. 10bis 15min
Im Wc war die Klospülung kaputt und keiner hatte sich drum gekümmert erst am zweiten Tag bekammen wir ein neues Zimmer
Ganzes Hotel war alt und hat eine Renovierung sehr nötig
Ich war mit 4 Kinder ( 15, 12, 10 umd 5 ) dort und meiner Frau und es war wirklich schlimm also nicht empfehlenswert

Okay for a night
Overall an okay stay. Hotel slightly run down and dated. Rooms could do with a lick of paint and new bathroom suites. My bed sheets were also dirty on arrival. Staff are friendly and helpful. Great location - close enough to walk to the centre but far enough away where it’s quiet.
Hotel was perfect and cleaned every day unless you left card in outside of door, not a lot in vending machine so had to go out to get water every night but think this was due to Covid
Nice location to close to shops and coffee,restaurant but girl in reception in morning She always not help at all when we need any think but after Noon receptions great 👍
