Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Wyndham Koeln impresses many guests with its prime location right across from the central train station and within easy reach of Cologne Cathedral, with some rooms offering beautiful cathedral views from their balconies. Many appreciate the spacious rooms and comfortable beds, also mentioning the convenience of having Nespresso coffee machines in the rooms. Some guests have, however, found the carpets to be a bit worn. Breakfast provides great options to choose from.

an acceptable experience

easy check-in helpful staff closed bar narrow beds

check in was simple and check out too. the hotel is near the main train station, just a short walk. the staff were helpful.

the bar was closed . you could only sit in the foyer, a shame. the beds felt a little narrow for two adults at 1.40m.

convenient location, clean room

convenient location helpful recommendations comfortable stay

i found the location very convenient near the main train station, and the cathedral was quite close. the staff were friendly during check-in and offered helpful recommendations! they also provided water and snacks in the lobby, a nice touch. the room was simple, but it had everything i needed for a comfortable stay.

the room decor seemed a bit dated, perhaps reminiscent of the 80s.

great breakfast awesome location dirty carpet low temperature

the breakfast had great options. the location stood just steps away from the train station. a nearby italian restaurant was close by.

the air con dial was glued on its lowest setting. the temperature was unbearable on my first night since it was mid 30s. some staff seemed unhappy when our cards needed changing because they kept not working. the carpet seemed dirty.
