Hotel is used for a lot of conferences, and bus tours, so is big, and has lots of rooms. Having said that, the facilities are all fine and well maintained, and our room was clean, comfortable, and well appointed. Breakfast and dinner in the hotel was ecellent too. Only minor issue is that its a bit of a walk to the town centre (15-20 mins), but there isn't a lot to see or do there anyway, so no big deal. Parking is easy and straightforward

A good place to stay

A comfortable stay in a large, spacious room, large bathroom with a bathtub (and toilet - a small minus in my eyes), location w/o any specific pros or cons, not exactly in the centrum, but not far from it, not far from the railway station. We have chosen the option "no cleaning of the room" in exchange for a one-drink voucher per person/per night.

Expensive

Good location but very expensive during the Opera season for what you get. The room was dark, gloomy and did not have what you would expect a hotel at this price to have,. Towels were paper thin and none of the extras like Shampoos were available. The hotel itself appeared to be a converted warehouse of sorts and old fashioned and tired.

Great for Wagner Fans

The Arvenna Congress is located within about a 20 minute walk of the Festspielhaus, venu for the annual Wagner festival in the summer. The hotel also runs a courtesy van to take guests to the performance and pick them up afterwards. The desk staff was fluent in English, knowledgeable about the festival and maintained a board with "ticket for sale/want to buy" information. The room was one of the few we've stayed in in Europe with real air conditioning. The breakfast room is huge and impersonal. The wait staff is not particularly attentive, but the food is plentiful and good. We'd definitely return to the hotel if we're fortunate enough to attend the Wagner festival in the future.

Wir waren privat als Paar für 3 Übernachtungen im Hotel. Der Empfang war freundlich und der Check in erfolgte schnell. Unser Zimmer war sauber und insgesamt ok, allerdings sind Einrichtung und Ausstattung schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Das Frühstück war zufriedenstellend, das Personal dort ausgesprochen freundlich, aber insgesamt ist der Buffett- und Frühstücksbereich für ein Hotel dieser Größenordnung (196 Zimmer) viel zu klein und eng ausgelegt. Dadurch war es sehr "rummelig" während der gesamten Frühstückszeit (wir haben unterschiedliche Zeiten ausprobiert). Die Sauna war leider defekt, war aber auch auf der Website angekündigt. Das Hotel liegt knapp 15 Fußminuten zur Innenstadt.

Ganz schlechter Service

Unsere Erfahrungen mit diesem Hotel waren gar nicht gut und das Hotel nicht zu empfehlen. Wir haben bei der Reservierung und am Abend beim Check-in erwähnt, dass wir ein Late Check-out benötigen. Dies wurde entsprechend notiert. Die Sauna öffnet erst um 17:00, dies war aber nirgends ersichtlich. Sie meinte sie schaue was sie machen könnte. Das Zimmer war leider nicht geheizt und entsprechend kalt. Leider wurden wir am morgen um ca. 10:30 geweckt per Telefon und gefragt wann wir auschecken möchten. Dies obwohl wir dies ja 2x gemeldet hatten. Die Dusche war leider auch defekt, die Duschbruse war locker und konnte nicht arretiert werden. Anschliessend kam noch das Reinigungspersonal und hat trotz dem „nicht stören“ ebenfalls nochmals gestört. Wir haben anschliessend direkt ausgecheckt. Die Sauna konnte trotz Voranmeldung nicht eingeschaltet werden. Sogar das Parkhaus wurde trotz Reklamation verrechnet. Wir haben die zukünftige Reservation direkt storniert und empfehlen dieses Hotel niemandem. Sehr unprofessionell und unorganisiert.
