Hotel Jakoberhof

“Great location, comfy dorm-like room”

Nice little hotel - imaging a university dorm, and you’ll get a feel for it. It’s not a traditional type of hotel, the rooms are in a separate building. Perfectly comfy though - good shower, good heater, bed ok. I had to ask for extra blanket and I wish I had had an extra pillow. Didn’t try breakf… more

Nice little hotel - imaging a university dorm, and you’ll get a feel for it. It’s not a traditional type of hotel, the rooms are in a separate building. Perfectly comfy though - good shower, good heater, bed ok. I had to ask for extra blanket and I wish I had had an extra pillow. Didn’t try breakfast. Communications were ok - they tried to be helpful with bus and tram info from Train station but they only gave me a part of the puzzle. In the end it’s not far, it’s 20 min in foot. If you want to take a bus it’s the 23 from the street to the left of the station (where Radastation is). Don’t go into Banhofstrassa, as the bus and trams there won’t take you to the hotel, which is on Fuggerei stop. You can get to Radaplatz and take the tram line 1, but for 3 euros you may prefer to walk. I was told taxi would have been 6 euros. The hotel is 3 min walk to Rathausplatz and there are lots of places to eat nearby. Anyway, for £55 a night it was fine. Don’t let your first impressions cloud your judgement.

“Last Minute Panic!”

Business trip at last minute so booking was hurried. All other hotels were booked due to a massive exhibition at the Messe which I was attending. Although the rooms did not have ensuite they were clean, basic but comfortable for limited time spent in them, the WC and Showers we only a few steps away, so no great hardship! Bonus was parking available for a small fee outside!!! Sleep was not the best I've had, quite noisy with trams, buses and other traffic running on both front and back of hotel, no A/C meant windows open as weather was wonderful.

“I should have looked for a better deal”

I went to Augsburg on a business trip and looked for a good deal hotel. I arrived well past midnight so they left the room key in a deposit box. I was surprised not to find a regular hotel: my room was in a building opposite reception on 3rd or 4th floor without elevator and the room was quite clos… more

I went to Augsburg on a business trip and looked for a good deal hotel. I arrived well past midnight so they left the room key in a deposit box. I was surprised not to find a regular hotel: my room was in a building opposite reception on 3rd or 4th floor without elevator and the room was quite close. Breakfast a bit expensive.
