Welcoming, Restful

The front desk welcome and service were exceptional. The beds very comfortable, and we appreciated all the attention to environmentally conscious choices. This was our second stay, and the hotel itself and the spirit of the place were even better. We enjoyed our dinner delivery in the lounge after a long day, with delicious wine available at the hotel. The sauna environment was well-appointed, clean, relaxing. We definitely plan to stay here again!

A short (10 mins) walk to the centre of Erlangen. A informal hotel featuring spa (note that it's only open from 4pm+). Friendly team. A good base for business travel, very near Siemens HQ.
