“Location, Location, Location”

Nice hotel with great location for exploring Nuremberg, easy to get to and find. Stayed for 2 nights with no issues, for the price great value. If staying in front rooms could be a little noisy but nothing that would prevent you from sleeping.

“Great location and breakfast”

Great location and breakfast, short walk to Restaurant Trodelstuben (yum) and the Christmas market.

“Expectations exceeded . . .”

This hotel is in a great location, not far from the Hauptmarket and other Nuremberg attractions. I wasn't able to find a room at ANY of the hotels listed in my guidebooks so I found this one on my own and booked in advance. My initial impression was somewhat unpromising, as the entrance is at the end of a rather dreary hall. But that improved immediately when I reached the reception desk on the 1st floor). The person there, though not speaking very good English, was so pleasant and helpful, and this seemed to be the way with all the staff, including the man who I presume to be the owner, and who speaks flawless English. There is no ambience and it isn't charming at all. The word "non-descript" comes to mind. But it's clean and has everything you need, and above all the staff are so friendly and willing to assist. Plus, the breakfast was very good.

We arrived very late at the hotel and were slightly anxious about our check in but there was no problem as reception was manned 24 hours. We were given an upgrade on our room and given a junior suite at the top of the hotel, it was huge and very comfortable. We were slightly worried about noise from outside as we arrived on a Saturday and there is an underground club next door but this was never a problem. Breakfasts in the hotel were excellent and the staff were extremely friendly and polite. I was even asked one morning if I would like a fried egg and this was prepared for me promptly. Very pleasant staff throughout the hotel and our request for extra pillows was met immediately. The location of the hotel is excellent and a very short walk to the old town. We would definitely stay here again.

“Nice staff, good location, great breakfast but noisy at night”

Easy to find in the old town using google maps, just ten minutes’ walk from the train station. The hotel is not on the ground floor of the building that it shares.

Easy to find in the old town using google maps, just ten minutes’ walk from the train station. The hotel is not on the ground floor of the building that it shares. When I arrived, I had to press a buzzer to get zapped into the building from the street & then it was into the lift (or stairs) & up to reception located on the first floor. I arrived at 13:00 not expecting my room to be ready but after just a ten-minute wait, I was told that my room was ready. A friendly, if not a little bit slapstick, (as a number of guests arrived at the same time to check in) check in then ensued with Ingrid during which I had to fill out a registration form & I was given info on breakfast times, my Wi-Fi code & a map of the old town. I was given two keys, one for my room & the other to access the building’s main entrance. With all that done it was off to the lift & up to my fourth-floor room. My room, no. 409, was a single room & just about big enough even for just a solo traveller. It was aged looking but clean & overlooked a busy street. Heat wise, it was very, very warm as the temperature outside was in the high twenties. With a laminate wood floor there were a number of facilities ….. wardrobe, smoke alarm, luggage racks, tv, mini bar (photo attached), work desk, chair, lamp, electric fan, trouser press, large mirror, radiator, single bed, small electric fan at the head of the bed & several spare electrical sockets. A large window gave a lot of natural light but unfortunately let in a lot of noise from the street below…people, traffic, music…well into the early hours. Closing the window helped but sleep quality was poor. Wi-Fi was hit & miss, quick to connect to with username & password required & had ok speeds but I had to re-enter the username & password whenever I returned to the hotel. The bathroom was small but clean with a tiled floor & walls, small shower cubicle, shower head & hose on a riser rail, easy to control shower valve, good water pressure & plenty of hot water, hairdryer, handwash & hair/body wash in wall mounted dispensers, mirror, radiator, electrical socket, ceiling vent, one bath towel, one hand towel & a floor towel. Breakfast was served from 06:30 to 10:00. I went down at 09:20 & it was busy, but I had no difficulty in getting seated straight away. Continental buffet - it was excellent with a good selection of good quality products – yoghurts, cereals, fruit slices, cheese spreads, croissants, breads, toast, scrambled eggs, sausages, cheeses, salami, cold meats, boiled eggs, tomatoes, smoked salmon, tomatoes with melted mozzarella, honey, jams, seeds, raisins, dried cranberries, fresh whole oranges, apples, pears, bananas, blueberries, grapes, kiwi slices, a vegan selection, teas, coffees & a large number of fruit juices. Checking out was as friendly as checking in had been but without the panic stations. I left my luggage, for a short time, in the secure complimentary left luggage area. There is a supermarket just metres away from the hotel & a kebab café/restaurant straight across the street. All the staff that I encountered were friendly & helpful, breakfast was excellent & the location was good but the night time noise really was too much & would put me off returning to this hotel in the future.
