Serviced Apartments Cologne · from 28 nights
Not a hotel.
Not a flat.
Temporary living is more than accommodation. THE17 offers real apartments — fully furnished, all-inclusive, flexibly bookable. For everyone who wants to arrive, not just stay overnight.
Who comes to us
Three paths. One home.
New city, new start
Cologne is new. The apartment isn't.
You're coming for a job, a project or a fresh start. You want to arrive — not live provisionally. A real address, your own kitchen, your own letterbox.
Your own address
A real letterbox, your own doorbell — not room 214 in a hotel.
Kitchen from day one
Cook, shop, settle in. You don't need a delivery service for the first few weeks.
Easy to extend
The project or job takes longer? Extension is straightforward.
Book flexibly, extend when needed
The project has an end. So does your stay.
No annual tenancy, no hotel long-term. THE17 fills the gap — flexibly bookable from 28 nights, cheaper than a hotel, more comfortable than a shared flat.
Cheaper than a hotel
From €53 per night — with your own bathroom, kitchen, WiFi and cleaning included.
No long contract
No three-month deposit, no 6-month minimum. Book what you need.
Extendable
Project running longer? We'll extend if the apartment is available.
Book repeatedly, always welcome
Not your first time in Cologne.
You know the city. You know a hotel room gets exhausting after three weeks. You want to cook, work, sleep — in separate rooms, with a washing machine.
A familiar address
Book repeatedly, always the same neighbourhood. THE17 becomes your Cologne base.
No hotel fatigue
Your own kitchen, your own living area — that's the difference after week three.
Tax deductible
Double household or business travel — often fully deductible.
Honest comparison
What you get elsewhere.
Many call themselves "serviced apartments". Not all mean the same thing.

The neighbourhood
You'll find your feet
quickly.
THE17 is on the right bank of the Rhine — quiet, well connected, with a real local character. Not a tourist area. Real Cologne.
I came from Munich for a 10-week project in Cologne. Most providers wanted at least 6 months. THE17 just worked — and it was the first real flat I'd had on a business trip.
