Cologne centrality — walk to Dom, central station.
Guests said Royal by Centro Comfort was very handy to the Köln Hauptbahnhof central station, Christmas markets, the Eigelstein gate and the Cologne Cathedral on foot. Furthermore, people mentioned they were close to underground and train connections which made getting around the city very easy.

Clean, comfy and a good price.
The rooms here were thought to be clean, had comfy beds, lots of space and a quiet location for a good night's sleep. On top of this, some guests said they had nice views of the Kölner Dom from their balcony and the value was thought to be good given the price and the location

Negative Reviews
negative:
Dated and poor Wi-Fi.
Some of those who stayed here said the hotel's rooms were dated and in need of refurbishment, but most had no problems with this and a few mentioned that renovations were underway. Others who stayed occasionally found the Wi-Fi signal to be poor in rooms.
negative:
Breakfasts do not impress all.
Some Royal by Centro Comfort guests found the breakfast offerings to be too simple, and a few said some items were not restocked during the service. However, having said this, others thought it to be fine, and appreciated a solid and convenient breakfast.
negative:
No kettle, fridge, English TV; lift noise.
The fact that there was no kettle or fridge in the rooms, nor any English-language TV channels or complimentary toiletries, was an unpopular discovery for some guests. Furthermore, a few guests mentioned that the rooms next to lift experienced some noise, so keep this in mind if you are a light sleeper.
