My husband and I, along with our kids ages 16 & 18, stayed at the hotel for one night during our road trip through Germany in May 2023. It’s been almost 2 years now and our family still talks about this hotel. We arrived later than expected but the staff were fantastic. They gave us a section right off of the kitchen. We absolutely LOVED it. We cannot wait to return and will be requesting the same sleeping quarters.

William

Traveled with family
Disliked: Cleanliness
Room 213 was infested with bed bugs which I have a very strong reaction to, so the rest of my trip, to Nuremburg and Munich was spent in severe pain and itching, with over 50 bites on my neck and arms and feet. We called the front desk manager, and she did change our sheets, but did not offer to change us to a different room. There was a strong smell of mint when we first entered the room, which I later found out is used to repel bedbugs, so my thinking is they knew of the infestation but booked us anyway. Never agian.

Cute, roomy hotel in great location

Fantastic location in the old town, with Plonlein right outside it's doors. Walkable to everything. Great common areas inside hotel. A game room, another living area, a large reception area with couches, another large relaxing area with couches on the second floor. Huge breakfast siting area with views. Room was clean and comfortable. I had a single room and even had a couch in my room. Would definitely stay again

TOTALLY NOT value for money

The service was extremely terrible. The receptionist refused to make a phone call to the restaurant rudely as per my request. Hair was found in the bathtub. The bathroom was too small, not enough to accommodate the water basin.

It is a nice hotel with lots of history. However, it lacks sufficient staff so twice during one day we could not find anyone at the reception and waited for long times. If you try to checkin after 9:30 pm, you will be screwed.

right in the center of town

lovely old hotel right on the edge of the cliff and near the iconic Plonlein building seen in many photos. Room large, nicely decorated. Bathroom good size with a tub. Did not have safe, did have a fan. Parking available which was great. Had a couple of lounge areas for people on the ground floor and a much bigger gathering area on the 1st floor. Breakfast was very good, lots of choice and the view spectacular. I loved that it was in old town.
