Short-Term Rentals & Furnished Flats in Cologne
The vibrant metropolis on the Rhine impresses with its strong economy, major trade fair and international flair.

In short
In Cologne, MA-Flats rents fully furnished short-term rental apartments and rooms for tradespeople, for 1 to 12 people, from one week to several months. From €14 per person per night, invoiced to your company. We run the apartments ourselves, have been on the market since 2021 and are active in eleven cities, Cologne among them.
Short-term stays in Cologne
Our apartments in Cologne offer excellent transport links and modern interiors, ideal for business travellers, project staff and longer stays around the trade fair, industry and the many construction sites of the cathedral city.
Whether you come to Cologne as a single specialist or with the whole crew: we provide accommodation that suits your project and budget, centrally located and ready to live in immediately. A single call or WhatsApp message is enough, and we will have the right option ready for you.
The A1, A3 and A4 plus the orbital motorway reach Cologne from every side, the main station sits right beside the cathedral, and the Deutz exhibition grounds and the industrial areas in the north are quickly reached. Tell us your site and we will look for the accommodation with the shortest route.
Furnished rooms and complete short-term rental apartments in Cologne: from one-room apartments to entire houses, fully furnished, with flexible rental periods from short-term to monthly stays.
Accommodation at short notice in Cologne
Short-notice enquiries are the norm here, not the exception. You reach us by phone daily from 8 am to 8 pm and on WhatsApp around the clock, Saturdays and Sundays included: one dedicated contact, never a call centre. If a unit in Cologne is free, you can move in the same day. Check-in is from 4 pm, as a rule by key safe or code, so late arrivals let themselves in. In the trade fair weeks the whole city is booked, so call early. If we cannot help, you hear that immediately too, so you lose no time.
Furnished rooms in Cologne: single, double and whole apartments
We let a furnished room in Cologne as a single room for an undisturbed evening off, or as a double room for two colleagues. Kitchen, bathroom and washing machine are all provided, and the apartment is fully furnished and ready to move in. The trade fair, the banks of the Rhine and the construction sites around the cathedral are quickly reached thanks to the good public transport links. If several colleagues travel together, we combine rooms within one apartment or hand over the whole unit, from a studio to an entire house.
Contractor accommodation, worker housing, crew accommodation
Anyone in Cologne searching for a flat for tradespeople wants the same thing as someone typing contractor accommodation, worker housing or temporary accommodation: living on a temporary basis, fully furnished, with no household of your own to bring. That is exactly what we rent, to trade businesses, exhibition fitters, plant builders and project teams. A single service engineer needs one room; for a crew we hand over the whole unit.
Wi-Fi is included in every apartment and free of charge. Whether a parking space comes with it depends on the apartment; where there is one, it also takes vans and lorries. Tell us what you are arriving in and we will pick accordingly.
Job sites and getting there in Cologne
For fitters, Cologne splits into a north and a south. On the left bank in the north lie the Ford-Werk Niehl, the Entwicklungszentrum Merkenich, the INEOS site in Worringen and the Niehl I and II harbours; in the south the Shell Energy and Chemicals Park Godorf and the petrochemical works in Wesseling. Add Chemiepark Knapsack in Hürth, the Chempark sites in Leverkusen and Dormagen, Köln/Bonn airport with the UPS and FedEx freight hubs, and the Koelnmesse in Deutz.
For crews with vans the Cologne ring road is the decisive factor, because it opens up the exits to the plants and is at the same time where traffic backs up in the morning. Anyone arriving by train gets to many commercial areas more directly from the main station by Stadtbahn and S-Bahn.
Two periods regularly make Cologne tight: the major trade fairs and carnival. In both cases the city is booked out weeks in advance, and anyone enquiring at short notice ends up living further out than planned.
