69%Motel One Köln-West  

Great place very quite and excellent if you want a good nights rest with no disturbance. breakfast was expensive, location was roughly 15 mins by tram out of the centre then another 10mins by foot to the motel. Otherwise definately recommended.

This was a great place to stay if you have a car. The rooms where very clean. Don't book if you have no car. The room was excellent for the cost.

Although it is a new and very tidy facility the directions are disgusting. Not only can you not find the hotel from the directions, the hotel is in the middle of nowhere. Nowhere near the airport and nowhere near the centre of Cologne. The worst experience we have had with 5 Hostelworld venues in 5 countries, so far. Give this one a miss!!close

The hotel is absolutely miles away and the directions are horrendous. Its really hard to find once you get off the tram - best thing to do is give them a ring probably! Although the staff were really unhelpful when I asked them for information! Good luck!

It's a great motel, except it is very far away from the train station. We had to take a cab both ways, but otherwise it was great! The staff was very helpful!

Would have no hesitation in staying at this Motel One, or any others

Don't stay here if you want to be near the city. IT's about 45 minutes from the train station and the directions are horrible. When you get off the train to it there is a parking garage and a wheat field...not what we were expecting. It's clean, has a great breakfast and the staff is helpful....

The directions to the hotel are horrible. After getting off at the train station (which is spelled wrong on the website), there are no directions to the hotel. Also, I was unhappz about the cleaning staff still entered my room when I had the "do not disturb" sigh on the door.

I hate motel one. Avoid it like the plague. It is miles away from Cologne and the directions they gave are crappy. Motel One is in butffuck nowhere. The staff is rude too and they smell

As we were visiting Koln for the first time, we wanted to stay near the city, however we had to travel an hour and a half to find the hotel. We were unaware that your location would be so far away.

We were unaware that your location would be so far away. We made arrangements for another hotel. Our trip would not have been as successful had we stayed there the entire time. We feel as if there should have been some recognition that there is little to do where the hotel is located. Thanks you.close

Worth getting good directions if you are on the tram. The hotel is not easily visible from the Tram Station. Pop into the Esso garage and they should help you out!

The motel was very nice and clean. The staff was also very helpful. The only bad aspect was that it was a 15 minute walk from the nearest train stop and it is kind of hard to find the first time you are looking for it.

difficult to find and get to. Instructions on website about how to get there by train are definately not thorough enough.
