Well, basic for the expectation of a small, privately run *** hotel? What more should we deliver?

Quaint hotel for a family stay with friendly staff
The hotel was great for our family, convenient parking to leave our car for the weekend and close to the tram to take into the city for all the Christmas markets. The hotel was basic, but clean and comfortable. The staff was amazing, very helpful and friendly. Breakfast buffet was good. Perfect for an affordable stay outside the city center.

Friendly to the whole family
We had a lovely little overnight here with our dog & two yo in tow. The setting was ideal within an easy walking distance to the river and on the strip with lots of shops, parking was easier than originally thought, recommend calling ahead for details on the lot location. Breakfast setting was beautifully laid out in the unique and historic ground floor- food was relatively standard.

Room was very uncomfortable. There were almost no food options in walking distance. Staff was SUPER and that was the only reason we stayed.

Cologne Hotel
This hotel was excellent , well positioned about 5 mins walk from the tram stop with frequent connections to the City Centre, some 25 mins away. It is also about 5 mins walk away from the River. I had a good clean and spacious room , with an excellent buffet breakfast and the staff were more than helpful.

Just Ok
In main commercial street with shops and some restuarants close by. Close to the river Rhine and there is a great park area to walk in nearby. My room overlooked the street which made is a bit noisy. Room was pretty basic and clean. Taxi from the aiport didnt know where it was, so be sure to keep the address handy.

Matige accommodatie maar de prijs-kwaliteit verhouding is wel reëel. Wij hadden met zijn drieën een 3-persoonkamer geboekt maar hadden helaas een 3e bijzet bed (dit lijkt op de website 3 volwaardige bedden). Ontbijt matig, weinig keuze en de ontbijtzaal is te klein als iedereen tegelijk komt ontbijten. Parkeren achter het hotel prima. Ook late incheck was prima en vooraf goed geregeld. Vriendelijke eigenaar. Op loopafstand genoeg restaurantjes en wat winkels, 15-20 min rijden van de Dom.

I do recommend it in case of working days the parking is sadly expensive and they do not consider their guest in this matter

Response from Hotel Gertrudenhof. Volker Faerber. on 23 Dec 2018
Thank you for your comment. We don't think that our parking is expensive. Public parking is at least 1,50 EUR per hour, which means our parking is equivalent to six hours of parking and competes witha fine of at least 10-15 EUR without a parking ticket on public streets...

Okay, aber etwas überteuert.
Das Zimmer war sehr klein. Die Dusche eigentlich eine Badewanne. Manches schien in die Jahre gekommen. Es war aber alles sauber und das Personal war freundlich. Insgesamtxfanden wir aber das Preis-LeistungsVerhältnis nicht ganz angemessen.

Die Größe unserer Zimmer entsprechen DEHOGA-Standard für ***-Hotels. Leider sind wir kein Kettenhotel, daß meist mit mehr qm aufwarten kann. Daß wir Duschbadewannen haben, steht in der Beschreibung. Sind natürlich nicht so leicht zu betreten wie Flachbodenduschen. Danke. Ihr Empfinden. Können wir nicht kommentieren.

Schönes Zimmer und guter Service - leider ist doch einiges an der Ausstattung (vor allem das Bad) etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Verglichen mit anderen Hotels in und um Köln hätte ich ein Zimmer bei diesem Gesamtniveau etwas 20 Prozent billiger erwartet.

Vielen Dank für Ihre Beurteilung. Wir wissen um den Zustand der Bäder. Wir haben das Hotel gepachtet, so daß es sehr schwierig ist, den Eigentümer von der Notwendigkeit der Renovierung zu überzeugen - ein dem Standard entsprechender Neubau kostet voraussichtlich 8000,- Euro. Mal 22 Zimmer...

Longe, mas acabou dando certo.
Hotel é bem bom. Localização é que surpreendeu, muito longe do centro histórico, mas a três quarteirões dá pra pegar a linha 16 do trem, que te leva até a Catedral de Colônia. Café da manhã do hotel é razoável. Pessoal muito simpático e educado.

Etwas altbacken, aber sauber
Alles in allem sauber, freundliches Personal, wir haben kurzfristig ein großes Zimmer bekommen, ohne Aufpreis. Die Temperatur des Duschwassers schwankte stark, außerdem müssten die Amaturen dringend mal erneuert werden, sowie der Duschkopf. Das Frühstück ist reichhaltig, aber es gibt nur eine Sorte Brötchen, keine Vollkornbrötchen etc.

Vielen Dank für Ihren Kommentar. Über die Badezimmer diskutieren wir schon lange mit dem Eigentümer - wissen wir. Teurere Brötchen gibt es bei teureren Preisen (Messe), ansonsten bieten wir neben Schnittbrötchen Vollkornbrot, Weizenmehlgraubrot, Toast, Vollkornknäckebrot und Zwieback - da sollte für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei sein. Auf Wunsch organisieren wir auch glutenfrei. Das "Altbackene" ist die Anfang der 1950er montierte Holzverschalung in unserem Frühstücksrestaurant oder meinten Sie etwas anderes?
