I really enjoyed my stay here - the staff was so friendly the lounge was always a nice place to meet people and the rooms were very comfortable. For backpackers its right near the train station and close to so many of the sites. A+! More

This is a budget hostel for long stay, very near to main station and also shopping area as well as tourist places. They have nice kitchen for 24x7 use. For all Indian food lovers next door is Jaipur hotel. So what else you guys are waiting try there. More

This hostel is in the centre of the city and next to the main train and bus station. Most things are within easy walking distance including a supermarket. The staff are friendly and helpful. The rooms are large and spacious, with single beds, instead of bunks. The toilets, were not especially pleasant though, and the lockers are in the hallway... More

This is a budget hostel and you get what you paid for.

It has good rooms with plenty of storage and an ensuite bathroom and was really well priced. It also has a good bar area... More

The hostel has a a great location close to the station and cathedral - really convenient for arrival and departure and the touristy part of the city. The room was quite decent with armchairs provided in addition to the beds in the twin room. The bed was not that comfortable as you feel the springs but managed to sleep OK.... More

My trip to Cologne was an impulsive one but unknowingly, I stayed there for five days because it's a wonderful base to explore other cities. This hostel is around 5 minutes away from the station & thus, its name. By now, this hostel is probably not as famous as its heyday because it's the earliest hostel in Cologne & that... More
