Close to train station

The room was nice although a refrigerator would have been appreciated. It was clean and comfortable. The common areas are old but maintained. Adds to the character and the breakfast was a very good, European style breakfast. I choose the property for it proximity to the trains station and it was very convenient.

Good hotel near the intercity train station.

Rooms are clean and spacious. Breakfast for 14 euro could be better. Restaurants open at 6:30 but nobody was on sight to have a coffee and I had to look for somebody at the bar to make an espresso.

Close to train station

Hotel was quite small but perfectly adequate breakfast choice wasn't great but fairly typical of German hotel breakfasts. Close to train station hence why i choose it but consequence of this was train noise especially as the window had to be left open. Curtains didn't completely block out daylight

Great place to stay. Staff was great and very accommodating. Front desk clerk recommended a restaurant for us, she called ahead and they held the place open for us. THE BEST FOOD I HAVE EVER HAD IN GERMANY. Only issue with the hotel is that it is right next to their tram station and they run very early in the morning, so if you are a light sleeper ask for a inside room and away from the window rooms. Other than that great place for the price.

Hotel Kurfurst Wilhelm I

I had an enjoyable stay at the hotel. It is located just outside the train station and tram line so it is very convenient to getting to the downtown area. There are several restaurants in the area as well.

Ich bin ehrlich gesagt nicht empfindlich und übernachten im Schnitt 2 Nächte pro Woche im Hotel, aber hier habe ich mich leider von den bisherigen Bewertungen täuschen lassen. Ich will aber fair sein und muss sagen, dass seitens Hotel soweit alles in Ordnung war. Das Zimmer und Bad waren sauber. Die Mitarbeiter der Rezeption waren sehr freundlich. Das muss man wirklich betonen, aber die Lautstärke der Zimmer, welche zum Bahnhof, Bus- und Straßenbahnhof gerichtet sind, waren leider sehr laut. Darauf ist das Hotelbereits eingestellt und stellt im Zimmer Ohrstopfen zur Verfügung. Leider ist das gar nicht so mein Ding. Außerdem roch es in meinem Zimmer ab ca. 6 Uhr an beiden Tagen meines Aufenthaltes nach allem, was in der Küche für´s Frühstück zubereitet wurde. Die Gerüche scheinen über die Lüftung verteilt wurden zu sein. Die unmittelbare Nähe zum Bahnhof Wilhelmshöhe hat natürlich Vorteile, aber war von 5 oder 6 Notarzteinsätzen geprägt, was Bahnhöfe leider ebenfalls öfter mit sich bringen. Schade, für das, was ums Hotel so passiert wäre ich gern gewarnt gewesen. Das wird mir eine Lehre sein. An Größe, Ausstattung und Bequemlichkeit des Betts gib es meinerseits jedoch nichts auszusetzen.
