Excellent, friendly service is not common in Germany. Hotel Domstern is the exception to this statement. My arrival required a late check-in and they made the time work and were very organized. It was wonderful. They are conveniently located near the main train station, but it is in nice neighborhood and an easy, quick walk. Breakfast was wonderful! And each... More

Good: Nice hotel this one. Close to Central Station and the cathedral, but in a residential, quiet, part of town. Staff is friendly and helpful and breakfast is great. Generally speaking, the room was very comfortable, and clean enough. Bad: Not much, in my room there was a funny smell coming from the bathroom (I think it was the shower... More

This is simply the cutest little hotel in Cologne. Centrally located (just 200 metres from the cathedral) - but on the quieter side of the train station. We didn't hear any noise from the trains at all. The breakfast was a different theme each day, and the staff were extremely helpful. But best of all - FREE INTERNET with your... More

Visited Cologne in December to see Coldplay and followed the advice of many on Tripadvisor and stayed at the Hotel Domstern. Staff were friendly and helpful, offering good advice about how to get around the local area. Hotel was immaculately clean and, although simple, was very comfortable. Location near the station and the central area of the city was really... More

Was at the Hotel Domstern for the second time on 26 December 2011. Only stayed one night this time and it still has so much to recommend it : - the staff here seem to have the goal of treating you like a personal friend. Not in a fake, hospitality trained, pretend kind of way - just in a genuine,... More

I stayed at the Hotel Domstern for one night with a friend in August while on holiday. This place is really excellent. The staff were all really really nice, and the rooms were excellent, beautifully decorated and also the breakfast was good, very diverse. The location was good, maybe five minutes walk from the train station on the otherside from... More

The hotel managers were so friendly and hospitable that we felt at home once we checked into the hotel. The service and assistance rendered by the staff is excellent. What I found most amazing, was the complimentary breakfast provided by the hotel. While we were here during the Christmas season, the menu for each morning was thoughtfully planned through and...

We stayed in Cologne just for a night to check out the Christmas markets and could not have chosen a better hotel. Like the hotel very clearly states, it is a small without facilities. But it is rare to find a 3 star with such friendly staff. The rooms were clean and had a nice touch. The beds were also... More

What can I say - trip advisor has done it again - this is the third hotel we have stayed in entirely through recommendations from reviews and we have not been disappointed. We booked over 6 months ago to enjoy the Xmas markets and as per the reviews managed to book the junior suite arriving on 4th december for 4... More
