Very cute hotel with a ton of character and charm. Extremely friendly staff al hours of the day/night. Bar in lobby is nice as well and lively. Never having been to cologne before, the location was perfect and allowed me to see everything I wanted in a short stay. Many many good restaurants in a short walking distance. Area was lively at night, and hotel felt safe. Only thing was the room had a semi private bathroom, due to design, but we figured it out and enjoyed thoroughly. I’m aware this is American of me to say that, but I believe it can be helpful to some. Great hotel, food, drinks, area. Would definitely stay again at Ruby Ella

Highly recommended hotel in Cologne.

Lovely hotel we stay at for the same business trip annually. Comfy beds, modern rooms with great facilities and the most amazing in-room shower & sink area with the best light-up mirror. Love it and wouldn't enjoy anywhere else in Cologne as much.
