Weltempfänger Backpacker Hostel

the lockers were way too small and the shower was laughable due to the fact it turns of every 2 seconds, however we loved it here and the free fruit and coffee was a lovely bonus, would recommend

Location is great, the strip is filled with food and vintage shopping. There is nearby laundromat to use. The kitchen is well equipped although you might need to buy oil as it is not supplied. The dorms are nice, no curtains and the locker space is extremely small, and they will charge €30 if you lose the lock/key which is a tad extortionate, but nevertheless a good place to stay. Although it is not particularly social, nor does it have a common room really.

Well.. everything is super, especially for this price. Cant complain, lost for words 🤷🏻‍♀️

Super lovely staff, very safe feel to the hostel. Would definitely stay again :)

Excelente lugar, la chica de recepción super amable y hablaba español, no tienen servicio de desayuno pero puedes tomar café, té, pan y fruta de la cocina. los cuartos algo pequeños pero muy limpios.

Overall a nice cozy hostel. It’s close to the U-bahn that can get you to the centre in around 10 minutes. Staff is friendly and overall looks clean. They even offer a lot of free food like fruit, coffee, bread and breakfast things as butter, jam etc. The only minor downside is that the common room is a little small and when it’s busy, it gets humid, but that can be avoided by opening windows. Also the shower was clean, but you have to press the button each 5-10 seconds or else it closes auto...

An amazing hostel!! The people were so fun, everyone was very social. The staff were friendly and the kitchen very well equipped with basic spices, fruits, and breads. Location was close to the U-ban. A bit of a walk to the centre, but nothing crazy. The only thing was the shower doesn’t last very long; literally 10 seconds before you have to push it in again. This was rather frustrating, but as I was only there a couple days not the biggest deal. Would stay again.

Positives: clean, easy to find, close to restaurants and supermarkets, large well equipped kitchen, friendly check in staff Negatives: no privacy curtains on the bunk beds, shower turns off every few seconds, dorm doors have to be locked from the inside with a key

Staff was incredibly rude, she said she would not wait for me to check in because other guests had already checked in earlier. Made me do late check in, even though I was on time. The link didn’t work so I called and I could do in person check in. The woman behind the counter continued to complain that she had waited the whole day for me and made me feel like I should not have come. Would not recommend, for one night it’s fine, for longer, go elsewhere.

This is a great, cozy hostel, with a nice kitchen. It's not the kind of hotel that is Instgarammable, but that's a good thing. Also, there is a later check-out time than most places at 12 noon, which is very convenient. The location is not central, but there is a U-Bahn entrance just a few metres from the building door. There is a kitchen with a hob and oven that also serves as a modest common room, allowing for some socialisation with other guests. All in all, a well-run hostel.

helpful and friendly bunch - from staff to other guests. welcoming kitchen/common space and a decent bit of food to choose from (plus only a stone’s throw away from kiosks/corner shops and Aldi Süd). wish i’d booked another night before they were out of beds!

Nous avons été très bien accueillis dans cette superbe auberge de jeunesse. Elle est très bien située dans Cologne, il est ensuite possible de tout faire à pied! Le réceptionniste nous a donné beaucoup de conseils a notre arrivée et ça nous a bien aidé sur les différentes activités à faire à Cologne. La cuisine est très bien équipée. Nous recommandons cette auberge !

Insgesamt ein erfreulicher Aufenthalt, einziges Manko: weder Strom noch Micro USB Anschluss am Bett ist im Jahre 2026 nicht mehr akzeptabel.

It's good to be there and love the process of late check in! It's perfect.

El personal muy amable, te explica todo, además el lugar está bien cuidado, muy buena limpieza, las habitaciones son grandes tienes espacio para moverte. Lo mejor te dan cositas gratis para comer. El lugar 1000/10

Really enjoyed

Really nice place

Sehr schönes Hostel. Super Lage. Sauber. Toll ausgestattete Küche. Sehr nette Menschen.

Personal muy amable, cercano, con un trato excelente, dispuestos a ayudar . Ambiente tranquilo pero con movimiento. Muy silenciosas las habitaciones, buen aislamiento.

Had an amazing experience. I love that there are lockers in the dorms that you can lock. I had a late check in which was quickly and easily handled. I love the self help kitchen, made some nice toast and had good coffee. Check out was easy, the staff is very helpful and super friendly! 10/10
