Callas Hotel am Dom

Great location and great hotel for the price. Staff were excellent and looked after us very well. Will be staying here again

On check in wasn’t given a key and when I went to reception to get a key the staff didn’t believe I wasn’t given a key.

The trip was great. Cologne is a lovely city with a lot to see, great food and friendly people. The hotel was excellent. It was warm, comfortable and very clean. The breakfast was great, plenty to choice.

My last minute room had many small problems.

The Callas Hotel is a small tourist class hotel in the center of Cologne. The location is good , right on the main shopping street and near the great cathedral. The location is the best part of this accommodation. That said, I can go over the pros and cons as I experienced them. The staff is friendly and check I was quick . The hotel has an elevator to get you up to the rooms. This 4 story hotel is well equipped for a short stay. The rooms have comfortable beds and are clean. The linens are fresh and bathroom was immaculate. The hair dryer was a plus. The room had large windows facing out to the street and with a stretch you could see the cathedral towers. Breakfast was simple and I loved the sliced salmon. What a treat! The cons There is no lobby and the rooms are quite small. This is the first time I stayed in a place where I could hear everything the neighbors said and every door opening and closing. I thought someone was at my door constantly because I could hear all noises in the corridor. The small bathroom had only a diskette of soap and a squeeze bottle of liquid hair/ body cleanser mounted on the wall and a roll of tissue. Curtains were very poor although blocking out light did not help with the street noises. I never got the tv to work and WiFi only allowed for my laptop to sign in but not a second device. The serve yourself breakfast was a bit too simple and the staff was absent. It is always nice to have a chat with the server and feel you are welcome

Great stay. You cannot beat the location or friendly staff. Hotel offers a great breakfast which is a great way to start the day.

Be careful about the 5% "city tax" that I was not aware of when I reserve. I was charged without any notice. I double check that the city tax can be waved if the purpose is for business travel. When I realize, I emailed them about the situation for three emails, they do not reply me. Very rude.

The hotel staff and location are excellent. Getting to the main attractions was easy. A fan in the room would have made our stay much more bearable as it was a heatwave and there is no AC in the rooms.

Everything about this place is wonderful, the location, the staff, the rooms, the breakfast is acceptable for a 3 star hotel. Just, no AC in the room makes it difficult for summer days. Otherwise, great value for price. Very nice staff. (Which are not that many)
