I never made a mistake booking at meininger. Simply the best for me, provided i catch a good deal. The point is, they have a big swing in the price of their dormitory beds: from 10 to 35 € according to days and vacancy. So i have to plan, book 4-5 days then book elsewere for other days. I get...

Great hostel! I booked a small single room, so I expected a small single room. Well, the room is indeed fairly small, but practically designed. There is everything you need at a small amount of space. I stayed one night in room 508 and one night in room 408 (during my trip I switched hotels, so had two different bookings... More

Hotel management later fixed booking error at no charge, but reception staff made second charge of nearly 200 Euro to credit card with no explanation. Hotel staff would not answer questions until owner was alerted, then was disagreeable, said extra... More

Meininger Hotel Cologne City Center is located in the student area. Many entertainment sides are nearby. There are both double rooms, as well as low-budget shared-rooms. I have stayed in both. While I did not like the double room (it stank of cigarettes), the dorm room was OK. My recommendation: A good place to stay in Cologne, if you do... More
